    27 Easy Ways To Change Up Your Hair Without The Commitment

    New year, new you (but not really).

    1. Straighten even the thickest hair texture with alarming ease (and speed) thanks to a powerful ceramic styling brush. If regular flat irons don't work for you, this is definitely worth a try!!

    2. Master new hair styles without needing tutorials by using a braid-maker clip. It keeps hair in place for you while trying new braiding techniques so you don't find yourself in a *tangle*.

    3. Lighten dark hair without paying big salon bucks by washing your tresses with highlighting shampoo and conditioner.

    4. Revamp your braids with loc cuffs that'll help you stand out without changing so much as a strand of hair.

    5. Skip expensive blow outs and opt for a hot air brush. The outcome is exactly the same (if not better), and it gives you drastic results before your arm is even tired.

    6. Crown yourself as the fairest of them all by knotting three sections of your hair into a playful half updo. This royal makeover only takes about ten minutes to complete!

    7. ~Cut out~ the hairdresser and clip on faux bangs. You can style them any way you'd like (fringe, thick, etc.) and best of all, you can take them off as soon as you feel like showing your forehead again.

    8. Restore shine and health to overworked hair with an enriching apple cider vinegar rinse. Not only does it cleanse without stripping natural oils, but you'll be left with softer, shinier tresses.

    9. Shave yourself from the finality of razors without giving up the *edginess* and go for a fauxhawk. It's essentially just a bunch of ponytails, but that's between you and me.

    10. Drastically repair damaged hair (or just add a whole lot of shine if it's healthy!) with organic leave-in conditioner.

    11. Channel your inner Hollywood diva and recreate the famous wet-hair look with nothing but hair oil and hair spray. Cheap products > expensive stylist (unless you have Kardashian money, in which case — adopt me).

    12. Reach new heights (and volume) with little more than a teasing brush. You could bring the eighties back with these babies, but maybe stop at respectably full.

    13. Show off a faux bob without *going to lengths*, by curling and pinning your mane underneath itself — you'll look like a starlet by night and still have your long 'do come morning.

    14. Surprise yourself with how different you look after simply moving your part from the middle to the side.

    15. Update your regular pixie cut by curling the top strands for a look that'll bring you a wave of attention.

    16. Accessorize away a bad hair day or just a boring outfit with a standout head wrap.

    17. Add a pop of color to your look without a hefty price tag or time commitment. A semipermanent hair dye is the perfect first step to dipping your toe (strand?) into fun hues.

    18. Still too long of a time frame? Hair chalk only lasts up to three days, which is just long enough to make a lasting impression after a ~vibrant~ weekend.

    19. Volumize fine hair with just shampoo and conditioner so you achieve more in the shower than just practicing for The Voice.

    20. Create pretty beach waves without any heat by twisting slightly damp hair before bed. I now pronounce you the new Sleeping Beauty.

    21. Toss complicated products and stick with a curling wand. They're easy, straightforward, and will give you waves that'll look as effortless as they were to make.

    22. Explore new styling techniques for natural hair, because Monday isn't so bad when filled with compliments over your braided ponytail.

    23. Grow your mane overnight — or at least that's how it'll seem to everyone when you wear clip-on extensions.

    24. Spritz an anti-frizz spray with caviar extract and a blend of omega oils (like avocado) to not only tame flyaways, but add major luster and shine.
