When you're in a beauty rut, it's a little like looking in your closet and seeing absolutely nothing to wear. Sure, you have the bones to create a killer look — a bold liner here, a bottle of texture spray there — but sometimes you just need a boost of inspiration. That's why we created Short Cuts, a series of quick, easy-to-follow videos meant to educate, empower, and excite the beauty nerds in all of us. Whether you're looking to learn something new or to refresh your current routine, there's a Short Cut for you.
If January has you feeling lethargic, don't despair: the twisted pony is here to help you live all your lazy girl dreams. No need to pause the Netflix — this hack has the braided elegance of its French or fishtail relatives, with a sliver of the work. Ready to give it a go? Grab a few hair elastics and follow along with video above.
