Trust Me—These 31 Haircuts Are Seriously Low-Maintenance

I cannot tell you the last time that my hair was at the forefront of my mind. Previously, “How should I wear my hair?” was the biggest question of my beauty routine, and now I feel like it’s fallen right to the bottom of my getting-dressed list.

The thing is, while I want my hair to look like I’ve invested ample time in styling it, I don’t always have the minutes to spare. But my hair says so much about my current mood and the way that I want to present myself that I don’t want my two-minute style to scream “I really don’t care about my hair”—even if I did basically show my strands no love that morning.

Luckily, via my ever-patient hairdresser, I sussed out a cut that is so low-maintenance that even when the biggest effort I make is running a brush through it, it still looks good. What a win, right? So if you’re like me and looking for an easy-to-look-after hairstyle with no fuss required, then keep scrolling for the best low-maintenance looks to opt for according to your length and texture.
