Consider wearing simple and quick hairstyles like ponytails, puffs and low buns – they will save a lot of time and will keep your hair off your face. Show off your curls in long ponytails and puffs – why not embrace your beautiful texture? A mohawk or a faux mohawk will be another great way to do that, and it’s a fresh and fun updo. When rocking a top or low bun, get some loose curls to frame your face and accent your eyes. Make sure braids, cornrows or weaves not too tight.
