Some call it low-maintenance, others might say lazy, but when it comes to my hair I am unashamedly laidback when it comes to styling it. Over-the-top up-dos and fancy plaits not only aren’t my thing, but I’ve never mastered them even if I was inclined to try. However, there’s something about the arrival of autumn that has me wanting to step outside my comfort zone and embrace something a little more adventurous when it comes to my daily hair styling. But I’m also incredibly realistic about the amount of time and effort I’m willing to spend on cajoling my hair into any kind of autumn hairstyle in the morning. We’re all busy people and, honestly, who has more than 10 minutes to dedicate to their strands on a normal day?

Yes, I took to Instagram for more hours than healthy to round up an array of the best effortlessly chic hairstyles for the month ahead. Most of them can be tweaked and adjusted depending on whether you’re feeling like showing more or less hair prowess that day, but there’s more than enough inspiration ahead to encourage a little more experimentation when it comes to hair styling.
Ahead, 18 stylish-yet-easy autumn hairstyles that I can’t wait to try—and the products I’d use to re-create them at home.
