A few tricks of the hair trade will make you look put-together in a minute or two. Stylists will tell you that everyone looks better with hair off of the face. Invest in some cute clips at the drugstore or your favorite boutique, and experiment with sweeping your hair up or to the side, fastened by a small clip.
Even if you have bangs, if you sweep them slightly to the side you’ll be amazed at how much more of you comes through.
