4. Double Buns: When your curly strands are just not behavin’, wrap them in two mini buns to keep them in place. Add a bit of gel to your loose strands and a black lip to bring out your inner grunge goddess.
5. Half-Up Bun: This half-up top knot is pretty much what dreams are made of. Pull your strands into a frizz-free top knot and keep your makeup minimal for effortless girl-next-door vibes.
6. Boss Babe Updo: Tired of your go-to ponytail? Opt for a business-appropriate updo like this twisted style. Tease the crown to add volume and depth to those curls.
