This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Hofstra chapter.

As full time college students, it’s easy to care less about your looks. We all want to look good with the least amount of work possible. I caught up with Emily Levine, a sophomore public relations major. Her effortless hairstyle has been a trend beyond Hofstra’s campus.

“This is perfect when you’re having a bad hair day or stayed up too late the night before. ”-Emily Levine

       Quick Tips:

1.     Pull the top half of your hair back

2.     Twist it into a tiny bun

3.     Secure with a hair tie or bobby pins

Three half-up topknot looks:
