Mom-Friendly Hair Styles that A-Listers Love

As a mom, you have limited time on your hands and when you do have a few minutes to spare, the last thing you want to spend them doing is your hair. So, with this in mind, here are four simple hair styles inspired by our favorite A-List moms.

The Easy Up Do
As a young mom, you need a style that is low maintenance and that’s where the up do comes in. When you have a baby to care for, having your hair pulled back from your face can make your life easier. The top knot is a popular choice for celebrity moms and will ensure you look effortlessly stylish. Julia Roberts is a huge fan off the easy up do.

Braids
If you have long hair but don’t want to wash and style it every day, braids are a style that complements a busy lifestyle. You can create a braid in under ten minutes and it will stay in for over two days. If you are unsure how to create this style or want to know the tools involved, have a look at this hair tutorial.

Remember that great hair starts with a high quality hair care routine so make sure you invest in a good shampoo and conditioner. Batiste Dry Shampoo is a hair savoir for new moms as you can spray this on your roots and freshen up your braid without having to take your hair down and wash it. You can pick this up online from somewhere like The Urban Retreat Beautique.  

The Bob
The bob is back for A/W 13 and this is great news for new moms. If you have long locks but fancy a change, the bob could be a great option for you. Victoria Beckham originally made the bob iconic back in 2007. However, celebrities have been showing off their freshly-cut bobs on Instagram this week proving that the bob is in fact making a comeback. Short styles are ideal for busy moms as they take less time to style. Gwyneth Paltrow rocked the bob as a new mom back in 2008.  

The Pixie Crop
If you want a style that looks great down but won’t get in your way, try the Pixie crop. Short and stylish, this is the ultimate stress-free hair-style for new moms. Natalie Portman and Beyonce have stepped out recently sporting the Pixie Crop. Could you pull it off?
