I think we all have those days where we are just too busy to wash or style our hair. The reality with those days is that there is not much to do other than the puff or a simple bun … or is there? Check out these four styles:
1. Two Jumbo Flat Twists (or Unicorn Braids)
This style can literally be done in minutes yet looks so elegant. It can work on an old braid-out, old twist-out, or hair stretched via other means. I sometimes wear this style after washing and air-drying my hair when I do not have time to do my usual set of small twists.
2. Twist-Out with Side Flat Twist
This cute style is ideal for those who undo an old set of twists (or braids) but do not have time to wash and/or re-style their hair. Just flat twist a section on the side, pin down the tail, and you are good to go!
3. Side-Swept Bang, a Low Bun, and a Flower

This is another cute style that can work on an old braid-out or twist-out. All you need is well-moisturized hair, hair pins, an Ouchless band, a boar bristle brush (or your fingers), and a pretty flower.
4. Rolled Bang and Side Bun on Twists
Okay, so what can you do when your twists are starting to show their age a bit but you do not have time to redo them? How about just re-doing the edges and wearing this elegant style.
For my busy ladies, have you worn any of these styles?

Please help,Iv been natural for 1yr 1month. I was doing really good with just wash protein treat ments conditioners . But my hair is always sry looking frizzy and fluffy. Went to a beauty salon to get help. She cut my hair and burned my hair. NEVER AGAIN!! Started using ECO styler gel now my hair is falling out im just ready to go back to a relaxer. Tired of looking like i never comb my hair. Please help. Sink full of hair.
Your hair regimen has to grow with your hair.if what you’re doing is no longer working it might help to try something new like prepooing before you wash, stretching out the time between protein treatments, cowashing instead of shampooing, or one of my favorites and deep conditioning every 2 weeks. Also remember as you continue that the natural hair journey is not only a journey to learn how to properly care for our hair, but it is also meant to help us learn to accept our hair and our selves for exactly what God created us to be.
i LOOVE #4, i do something similar to that alot, in fact im wearing one now 😀
I do all 4. rolled hairstyles are my go to styles.

I like all four! However, I have always worn #1.
More proof that you can be natural for years and still learn something: #1 is an old favorite of mine but when I do it I usually end up redoing it in order to get it even. Looking at this video I see the position of her hands is different from mine. I think that might work better for me…the next time my hair is stretched I’ll definitely try it. Thanks for this post!
I love this post,thanks
Simply Cre8eve is gorgeous! Her hair is awesome. All of these styles are fantastic. Nice post.
Yessssss! Posts like these keep me coming back to BGLH!!!
#4 is one of my favorite styles: fast and easy! I will definitely try #1: I love it!
I love #1 and #4! I will definitely be doing one of these styles for a wedding I’m going to soon!
I’m always doing #4 when in a hurry. 🙂
Unicorn braids are my specialty…lol

Love it! From what /i recall, it’s the first post that features all hairstyles that I seriously adore and can see myself wearing. Thanks.
Absolutely lovely! I can see myself doing every single hairdo featured here. Thanks BGLH, someone like me, with little time to dedicate to hairstyles can really put these to use.
