As we welcome in a big holiday weekend, you may be inspired to rock an easy new hairstyle to your family potluck or do a test-run of a NYE look for your big night out.  I encourage you to try a messy updo with the instructional links below.  These looks may even inspire you to make it your new year’s resolution to prep something more than a ponytail to spruce up your office look in 2012.  As this Etsy artist puts it, I have “embraced messy hair” because it is a look that sums me up: loose, yet manageable.

3 twisted buns by Joanna Goddard.  I’ll likely be wearing this every day come January.  A Cup of Jo has several whimsical hair tutorials that I love.  Beautiful photos too.

A Beautiful Mess messy bun.  My hair on most days by the end of the day or for a lively night out.
