If you are living in Cape Town, you will understand the pain of washing your hair with buckets at your feet and having to turn the water off while lathering (and freezing in the process now that it’s getting colder). Well, we have a solution to save you time in the mornings and, most importantly, help with the dire water crisis we are experiencing.

 

1. Messy bun

This is a go-to for most moms on the run and trendy teens. It is super easy and perfect for any event or even couch lounging. A bit of hairspray goes along way.

Try Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray. Find it here

3. Halo braid

Calling all angels… from wedding upstyles to classic dinner date do’s. This requires a bit more technical experience but the messier the better so give it a go. The more texture your hair has the better.

8. Glitter roots

Who doesn’t love glitter? We certainly do… This may make the washing out a little harder, but boy is it worth it. And let’s be honest, are we really bothered if we leave a trail of glitter behind us for a few days?
