2. Dutch braids 

Braided hair is always in style and looks amazing on all hair types and lengths. For a thicker look, braid your hair first, then tease small sections to pull out some strands to add a beachy vibe and extra texture. This look may take a few longer stints in front of the mirror to perfect your technique, but once you’ve mastered it, you’ll be braiding every day.

3. Bubble ponytail

A bubble ponytail is perfect for long, fine hair because it adds volume and texture, making hair look fuller. To achieve this look, tie your hair into a ponytail, then add another hair tie a few centimetres away, and repeat until you reach the end of your pony. Finish off by gently tugging on each segment to tease out the hair for a stylish, full effect in double-quick time.

QUICK AND EASY HAIRSTYLES FOR LONG, THICK HAIR

Long, thick hair is a blessing, but it can be a challenge to style quickly. Here are three fabulous hairstyles that are both fast and easy to achieve, perfect for any busy day.

5. Half-up half-down braided band

If time, give your hair a quick once-over with your straighteners – our Wide Iron Pro is perfect for long, thick hair as its wider-than-average plates can straighten your hair in super-quick time. Next, take a small section of hair from behind your ear and braid it. Pull the braid around the back of your head and pin it or tie with a hair elastic, then leave the rest of your hair down or in loose waves.

6. Low ponytail with braid

Use a brush like our Luxury Dressing Brush to gently detangle your hair and create a deep side part.

QUICK AND EASY HAIRSTYLES FOR MEDIUM LENGTH HAIR

Whether you're running late or just want to try something different, these three quick and easy hairstyles are perfect for your mid-length hair.

8. Loose waves

If you’ve got a spare few minutes for this one, use a tool like the CLOUD NINE Curling Wand to create loose, beachy waves by wrapping sections of your hair around the barrel for a few seconds, then release.

For this look, start by gathering all your box braids into a high ponytail at the crown of your head and securing it with a hair tie.

21. Bubble ponytail

This look can work with braided or unbraided hair. Simply tie your hair into a ponytail, then add equally-spaced hair bands down the length of your ponytail. Then gently pull on each section to boost the volume. Add a silk scrunchie for a final touch.

QUICK AND EASY HAIRSTYLES FOR CURLY HAIR

Curls come in different sizes and shapes, but these quick and easy hairdos should suit all, and are perfect for adding a little extra something, even when you’re pushed for time.

22. Defined curls with a side parting

If it’s wash day and you’re squeezed for time, use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to create a defined side part after applying curl-enhancing products and when your hair is still wet. Then use a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment like our Airshot Pro on a low heat setting to enhance your curls' shape. If you’ve not got time for diffusing, simply scrunch when your curls are damp and let the air do the rest.

If you’re blessed with type 3 curls and you’re on day two or three post-wash, quickly revive them with a few spritzes of water and a scrunch motion – any products you applied after washing will quickly reactivate.

QUICK AND EASY DRYING, CURLING AND STRAIGHTENING HACKS

When time is against you and the pressure’s on, it can be challenging to get the look you want. With our quick and easy hacks for drying, curling and straightening, you’ll be ready to go in no time.

Quick and easy ways to dry hair

We all know that feeling of rushing to get ready in the morning or trying to squeeze in some self-care time after a long day. That's why mastering efficient hair drying techniques is a lifesaver for those moments when time is of the essence. Check out these fun and effective ways to dry your hair in a flash, leaving you feeling fabulous and ready to tackle whatever the day throws your way.

• Wrap your hair up in a soft, absorbent towel and let it work its magic while you do other things.
• Gently squeeze excess water from your hair using a microfiber towel or an old cotton t-shirt.
• Use our Magical Quick Dry Potion to speed up the drying process. Doubling up as a heat protectant, our Magical Potion contains a mixture of nourishing ingredients designed to help your hair dry more quickly.
• Blast your hair with the hairdryer on a cool setting while using your fingers to tousle and lift the roots for instant volume. Our Airshot and Airshot Pro hairdryers have a Cool Shot button that allows you to give your hair a cool blast for optimum shine.
• Use a diffuser on wavy or curly hair to define curls. Our Airshot Pro comes with a magnetic diffuser attachment, so just click it for more defined waves or curls. Check out our comprehensive guide on how to use a diffuser for more tips.

Quick and easy hair straightening

Whether you're a seasoned straightening pro or just starting out with your first pair of straighteners, it’s a super quick and easy way to achieve straight or wavy hair. Check out our hacks for making it even easier while making sure your hair is happy and healthy.

• Section your hair before switching on your straightener. Our Croc Clips are perfect for the job, helping you to straighten each section properly the first time, minimising the need to go back over your hair to pick up any missed kinks. 
• Use your straighteners at the lowest possible temperature. If you’re in a rush, it can be tempting to turn up the heat on your straighteners and hope for the best. But this can create more time-consuming hair issues like dryness or split ends. Here at CLOUD NINE, we’re passionate keeping your hair safe and healthy, which is why we developed our innovative Temperature Calculator. Use it to work out the safest temperature for your hair type and adjust the temperature of your straighteners to match. 
• For second day straightening, try a hot brush like our Original Hot Brush. When you're short on time and need a quick touch-up, this handy tool straightens and smooths your hair in minutes. Its gentle heat is kind to your hair, helping to keep it healthy and frizz-free.
• Choose the right straightener for your hair type and length. Save time and energy (we’re talking electricity and your own elbow grease) by choosing a pair of straighteners that suit your hair. For example, if you have long thick hair, our Wide Iron Pro is the perfect option, whereas the Mini Iron is great for short hair. If your hair is on the wavy side and you switch between a straight or wavy look, go for the 2-in-1 Contouring Pro Iron Pro. For more info, head to our guide on how to choose the right straighteners for your hair type.

Quick and easy hair curling

If you’re looking for easy methods to curl hair in a hurry, or wanting to achieve gorgeous waves without spending hours in front of the mirror, look no further than your curling wand. You’d be surprised at how quickly and easily you can achieve beautiful curls and waves with minimal effort. We’ve rounded up our top techniques for how to curl hair quickly.

• Apply a heat protectant like Magical Potion to shield your hair from heat damage.
• Divide your hair into small sections using our Croc Clips for easier styling.
• Use a wand with a ceramic barrel like our Curling Wand. Infused with sericite, the heat is able to distribute evenly, meaning you only have to style each curl once, saving those precious minutes.
• After curling each section, hold the curled hair in your hand for a few seconds to cool down before releasing. This can help set the curls faster and reduce the overall styling time. Make sure you wear a protective glove when using a curling wand.

Whether you’re in a hurry to start your morning commute or need a last-minute hair fix for a special occasion, mastering quick and easy hairstyles doesn't have to be a daunting task. With the right tools, techniques, and a little bit of practice, these tricks are sure to save precious minutes, leaving more time to do the things you want – and love – to do.
