Simple Hairstyles #1 Sleek Low Bun
The sleek low bun is one of the most popular simple hairstyles. It is a timeless hairstyle that’s easy to create, looks professional, and is incredibly versatile. Whether heading to the office, running errands, or going out for the evening, a sleek bun provides a polished, no-fuss look.
How to Create It:
- Start with dry, brushed hair. Gather it low at the nape of your neck and secure it with a hair tie.
- Twist the ponytail into a bun, wrapping it around the base and pinning it in place with bobby pins.
- To keep flyaways under control, mist Harmony Gold Extra Firm Hold hairspray over your bun. This product’s microfine spray ensures that your style stays sleek without looking stiff.
Pro Tip: If you’re after a softer, more relaxed version, use Harmony Natural Hold for a flexible finish that allows movement while still providing all-day hold.
Why It Lasts All Day: With a combination of a strong base and Harmony Extra Firm Hold hairspray, this style won’t budge, even during a busy schedule.
#2 Voluminous High Ponytail
For a look that’s both effortless and lifted, the high ponytail is a go-to style that adds height and a bit of drama. It’s ideal for those with medium to long hair who want volume without a lot of styling time.
How to Create It:
- Brush hair up towards the crown of your head and secure it with a strong elastic.
- For an added polished look, take a small section of hair from the ponytail, wrap it around the base, and pin it to hide the hair tie.
- To boost volume and keep flyaways at bay, spray the ponytail with Harmony Gold Volume Boost. This extra firm hold hairspray is ideal for locking in volume and keeping your style intact throughout the day.
Pro Tip: For even more lift, spray Harmony Volume Boost directly at your roots before styling. Lightly tease the base of your ponytail for added fullness.
Why It Lasts All Day: Thanks to the hold and volume boost provided by Harmony Gold, this style will stay lifted and full from morning until night.
#3 Loose Waves
Loose waves are a universally flattering style that adds softness and texture to your look. This style works for almost any hair type and length, providing a casual, beachy look that’s perfect for everyday wear.
How to Create It:
- Start by spritzing Harmony Gold Heat Defence throughout your hair to protect it from the heat of your curling wand.
- Take sections of hair, wrap each around the wand, and hold for a few seconds before releasing. Repeat around your head until all sections are curled.
- To ensure your waves last all day, finish with a mist of Harmony Extra Firm Hold. This will set the style without sacrificing softness or movement.
Pro Tip: For a more undone look, use your fingers to break up the curls gently. Avoid brushing them out completely to keep the waves intact.
Why It Lasts All Day: The heat protection provided by Harmony Gold Heat Defence combined with Harmony Extra Firm Hold locks in waves while keeping your hair healthy and radiant.
#4 Messy Half-Up, Half-Down
Half-up, half-down simple hairstyles are a great way to keep hair out of your face while still letting it flow freely. This style works well with natural textures, making it a fast and stylish choice for all hair types.
How to Create It:
- Gather the top half of your hair, starting from above your ears, and pull it back. Secure with a small elastic or decorative clip.
- Tease the lower section for added volume, or keep it sleek for a more refined look.
- Set the style with Harmony Natural Hold hairspray for a flexible, touchable finish that stays put.
Pro Tip: For more texture, apply Harmony Styling Mousse before drying your hair. This helps to add grip and volume, making it easier to style.
Why It Lasts All Day: Harmony Natural Hold keeps the top section secure without stiffness, so you can enjoy a soft, voluminous look that lasts.

How to Create It:
- Start with damp hair and apply Harmony Gold Defined Curls Firm Hold mousse evenly throughout.
- Use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer to dry your hair, scrunching the curls as they dry to enhance definition.
- To set your curls and keep them bouncy all day, spritz with Harmony Extra Firm Hold.
