5 Back to School Hair Hacks for Busy Mornings

After a lazy summer, getting into the hectic back to school routine can feel like a drag. That’s why we’ve pulled together 10 lifesaving hair hacks that will take the stress out of the tress part of your morning.

Pump up a plain ponytail

Pump up a plain ponytail, fast on the first day of back to school. Simply pull a loose ponytail through the middle of the hair near the base of the neck, and tug on strands to secure. This style is so easy, even dads can do it!

Never lose a hair tie again

Here’s a genius idea for keeping hair ties organized, and accessible. All you need is a carabiner; then no more rooting through the bottom of drawers so you can pull your daughter’s hair into a ponytail, as she’s eating her cereal and milk at warp speed, of course!

Tame those fly-aways

Polish a hairstyle with the swipe of a tool you typically use to polish teeth. Using an old toothbrush and some hairspray helps put the finishing touch on a special style for back to school.

Plan ahead with pins

Welcome to your new go-to quick style on a school morning. All you need is nail polish and plain old bobby pins to make any hair day go from boring to bodacious!

Prompt the peewees in the house

You’ve got a million things going on in the morning. Wouldn’t it be great if your kids could take care of a few things on their own, like brushing their hair? Try these printable flashcards that act as reminders for little ones getting acclimated to the a.m. back to school routine.
