Mondays are for letting yourself sleep that extra 15 minutes, not for blow-drying, curling, or straightening. So we’re dubbing Mondays a strict no-shampoo zone. As such, we’ve planned ahead, and given ourselves plenty of options for hairstyles we can throw together in five minutes or less.

If this sounds like something you can get onboard with, keep reading to see seven quick and easy styles!

    An upgraded version of the basic half-up ponytail, the upside-down half bun is just as easy, but twice as chic. Just loop the tail of your pony into a bun, and no one will suspect you did your hair while waiting for the elevator.

    When you wake up and your hairline isn’t looking as polished as the night before, braid it. Braid a piece from each side of your head, stop where they meet in the back, and tie them together.

    The low pony is the ultimate no-fuss hairstyle. To give yours a little something extra, pull the pony tight, and then lift a few pieces right above the hair tie. This adds a bit lift, ensuring you won’t look like just rolled out of bed.
