Not only outfits make an impression, every detail of your look matters: hair, makeup, accessories, everything is important. If you are already done with choosing your outfits for work, it’s time to think about other parts of your look, and today’s roundup will give you some work hair ideas. These are for medium hair length but some of them can be also rocked with long or shorter hair.
Updos
An updo is the most popular idea of a work hairstyle because it’s comfy and all the hair is in place. The most popular idea is a bun, which can be low, midi or top, and sleek or messy. I’d offer sleek for a more professional look but in some places messy hairstyles are welcome, too. Your bun can be accented with some pretty hairpins or you can insert them in your hair around your face. A simple updo can be also a nice solution as it can be made on the go, and if you secure it with a claw clip, your look will be in trend.
