However, there are also times when you’re just too lazy to style your hair that you just want to sit back and put your hair up in a bun. If you feel that way today, then, here are some messy bun hairstyles that we have compiled for when you just want to chill out. Check these out!
Messy Bun Hair Ideas
1. Baby Bun for Short Hair
Just chilling out doesn’t mean you should completely let go of your hair. This baby bun is the best messy bun to wear for your short hair. Since it’s supposed to be messy, you don’t even have to make it perfect or sleek.
Editor’s tip: Skipped washing your hair? Freshen up your locks with a few spritzes of TRESemmé Instant Refresh Dry Shampoo. It absorbs excess oil and removes dirt from your hair so you get clean hair even if you didn’t wash it.
2. Curly Half Space Bun
Whether your curls are going wild or not, you can put them in this hairstyle. Just put two small sections of your hair up in double buns, and you’re done! You don’t even have to comb your hair to nail this ‘do. It’s perfect for those days when you feel like bringing back your childhood memories.
3. Japanese Messy Low Bun
Have you seen those pretty Japanese women and how they wear their buns low? You can also pull off that hairstyle and make it messy to look more casual. Don’t worry about the loose strands as they give you a more laidback look. You can wear this hairstyle even at work!
Editor’s tip: Though your hair is supposed to look messy, you might want to make sure that the bun is secure. Spray on some TONI&GUY Sea Salt Texturising Spray on your bobby pins to give them more grip so they can hold your bun better.
4. Rolled Bun with Bangs
Worried about how to wear your bangs on a lazy day? Just put your hair into a rolled messy bun and let the bangs fall to your face. You can even wear wispy bangs to go with your messy, relaxed look.
5. Messy Braided Bun Updo
Anything with braids becomes a charming and romantic hairstyle—even a messy bun. You can wear this on casual days, on the beach, or when your beau suddenly calls you for an impromptu date.
Editor’s tip: A few spritzed of VO5 Extra Hold Hairspray can help keep your braids and bun from unraveling. And thanks to its lightweight formula, your strands won’t feel heavy and sticky.
6. Messy Bun with Headband Braid
With this messy bun with headband braid hairstyle, you exude a relaxed but stylish look. It’s perfect on days when you just have a short meeting at work or on weekends when catching up with your friends over coffee.
Editor’s tip: Even messy hairstyles can get ruined by hairfall. If you’re dealing with this hair problem, use Cream Silk Hairfall Defense Conditioner, which can help minimize falling hair and hair breakage.
7. Messy Bun for Long Hair
Got long layered hair? You’ll probably notice that not all strands get tied every time you put your hair up in a ponytail or bun. And that’s perfectly fine! Take that as your cue to go for a messy bun. The messier, the better!
8. Messy Fan Bun
Going out on a date but you don’t feel like excessively styling your hair? Try the messy fan bun! It is comfortable and perfect for hot afternoons at an alfresco café.
9. Messy Side Bun for Medium Hair
You can also put your messy bun on one side for a more feminine and romantic look. Leave some loose strands framing your face to make your hairstyle look more chill.
10. Twisted Wedding Bun
Yes, a messy bun has a place in formal occasions like weddings! This is perfect for rustic-themed or beach weddings when you don’t need to look too formal and polished.
See? You don’t need to style down on your chill-out days. All you need is a messy bun to get your style game on even when you’re relaxing.
