Time saving hairstyles for a busy schedule

December 6, 2016

Today I’m sharing with you 4 simple hairstyles that build on top of one another. So in the morning when you get ready for your busy day, whether it be for work, to go out with friends, or running errands, just a couple minutes on yesterday’s hair and you’ll be out the door! This post is also in collaboration with Centrum MultiGummies at Walmart, which I take to help myself stay healthy while enjoying my busy lifestyle.

Many of you know that besides this blog, I also have a full time job. And outside of those two things, I also love going out with the hubs and friends. Having a social life is nice to balance out the two jobs. We also have two dogs that love going the mountains every couple weekends. And I love doing everything in style. I’ve collected a couple hairstyles I figured I could build on top of one another so I don’t have to repeat the same hairstyle all the time. If you’re a girl with many daily things to do and need time saving hairstyles, this post is for you!

But first, I’d like to show you these Centrum® MultiGummies® I got from Walmart. Centrum® MultiGummies® makes it easy for me to support my health while enjoying my busy lifestyle. And also, you’re never too old for yummy gummies! I don’t know about you but I prefer taking these over pills any day. Centrum® MultiGummies® contain three natural flavors: Berry, Cherry, and Orange. It’s seriously hard for me to only eat 2 a day. Centrum® MultiGummies are gluten-free and have no artificial flavors or sweeteners. You can buy them from Walmart in the aisle labeled “multivitamin”.

So anyways, about the 4 hairstyles. Day 1 is usually a little more work, but it’ll be worth it I promise. You can also style it the night before too so you don’t have to do it in the morning. Then you can literally say “I woke up like this.”

Day 1 – Hair down in loose curls

I curl my hair with a 1 1/4 inch barrel curling wand. But whatever technique to give your hair some waves and texture will work. Use a curling wand like me, use hair rollers the night before, I know some can even get their hair curled with socks, you talented people! This is a simple hairstyle most girls wear. I know everyone knows at least one way to curl your hair. So that’s basically your hairstyle for Day 1!

basicloosecurlswithacurlingwand-12Day 2 – A little side braid

Day 2, the curls may not be as tight anymore. But, we can still work with this hair. Also, I’ll let you in on a ‘dirty’ secret. Braids are easier on day(s) old hair. Have you tried braiding fresh clean silky smooth hair? Yea, super hard because there’s no texture for hair to grip onto each other. So now when you’ve worn your waves for a day, you’re ready for a cute little side braid. I just grab a small portion of hair from the front of one side, and do a basic three strand braid. Don’t know how? Please Pinterest/Google for basic three strand braid. Then clip it to the side. If you’re feeling fancy and have extra time that day, do the same with the other side.

I wore this hairstyle before on our last trip to the mountains:

Day 3 – Pony tail with a side braid

So this has to be the easiest day because all you do is put your hair in a pony tail, and incorporate the little side braid from the day before. Done in 30 seconds! Yes, you can sleep with the braid and it shouldn’t be destroyed the next day since it’s in the front.

Day 4 – Top Knot with a Side Braid

We’re finally here, day 4! After day 3, you can remove the pony tail but leave that little braid before going to bed. In the morning of day 4, you can incorporate it into a top knot bun. Your hair is 3 days old, it should have a lot of ‘texture’ (translation, grease lol). Perfect day for a top knot. You can wear it using a sock if you know how. Or just take your pony tail, twist it, then wrap it around and tie it with a hair tie. Pull out some hair on the side without the braid to frame your face if you like.

Now let’s address the elephant in the room. That’s right, I don’t wash my hair for 4 days. My scalp is very dry and my hair is color treated. It is recommended to me that I don’t wash my hair every single day (Thank goodness, who has time for that anyways) However, it’s not always the case. Sometimes, if I work out intensively, or if we go camping and have a campfire, my wash schedule changes. I would wash my hair the next day, or after 2 days. So wash it as often as you must. These are 4 days worth of hairstyles to help you save time, as I think that should cover average number of days we go without washing our hair. You don’t have to use all 4, you can use any number of those styles. I hope you find this post useful!

And now, time for me to take some yummy gummies! Don’t forget to check out to check out these offers for your next Centrum® MultiGummies® purchase.

    Wow !!!! I’ve never tried the gummy vitamins but I must now !! I’m like you , and it was recommended to me to only wash my hair 2 times a week but sometimes I just must wash it more often. I loved the side braid idea and I’m excited my hair is finally long enough now to do this. Thank you so much!

    You have gorgeous hair and I love all these easy hairstyles that you show. I wash my hair every other day just to keep it healthy and not overwash. These gummy vitamins look amazing and I always like gummies over the ones you have to swallow. I will definitely pick these up when I am at Walmart next! xoxo, Christine

    I actually have a bottle of those gummies cause I hate swallowing pills. Haha.

    I love every single hair style here! It’s so perfect! I have to wash my hair every other day which is annoying, but it just ends up getting way too greasy for me to deal with. 🙁

✨ Wood signs for my little Prince baby shower ✨:

- I ordered custom adhesive vinyl decals to be printed for large dimensions (around 3-5 ft tall). 
- Cut the shapes out, and trace the shapes on wood boards (I used 1/4” thick plywood).
- I put painter tape around the traced line to reduce wood chipping when cutting with a saw later.
- Cut the shapes on the wood boards with a jig saw.
- Brad nail leftover woods on the back to make a stand for the signs (some small pieces of 2x4 worked well). 
- Apply the adhesive back of the art decals onto the wood signs.
- Enjoy! 🩵✨🎠

☺️ What I’d do different if I do this again: 
1. The horse and carriage are ok, but I’d loved the castle to be taller.
2. Use foam boards instead of wood for lighter weight. Wood would be great if these signs will be outside where it might be windy, but for indoors event, I would do foam.

My birth story 🤰🏻: 
I went to bed at 39w3d with contractions 10 minutes apart, but had thought they were faux labor contractions (because I had Braxton Hicks and prodromal contractions most of pregnancy) so I didn’t think much of it. I woke up at 2am and called my doctor at 4am since contractions were 7 min apart (still thinking they were not real 😂). Good thing she told me to come in. I debated if I should put makeup on and decided to not - wise decision! During the car ride, 7 min apart became 5 min apart. When we arrived at hospital, I was 6cm dilated. I asked for epidural and by the time I got one, I was 8cm dilated. I started pushing shortly after, and baby came after 20 minutes of pushing.
