As a working class lady, your hairstyle is as important –if not more–, as the clothes you wear to work. This is because your boss, your colleagues and potential customers/clients notice even the littlest thing about your appearance, from how fine and recent your hairdo is to the shoes you have on the moment.
I am a firm believer in the saying: “You are addressed the way you dress.” This saying had proven true so many times for me. There are time I’ll dress very plainly to go to the next street to buy something and I end up regretting that spur-of-the-moment decision because that is almost always, the only time I’ll bump into my well-dressed friends.
There are tons of hairstyles you can opt for when you’re attending a wedding, a party or a photoshoot but as you’re in a professional setting, it’s a good idea to stick to well-groomed and non-attention grabbing hairstyles.
Classic Braids:
A tasteful knotless braids hairstyle is a great choice for office professionally. The best part about this hairstyle is that you can style it in a number of ways and it will still come out well. Avoid overdoing it though. If you’re choosing colors, opt for muted tones, you don’t want to look like a party girl out of place at work.
Sleek Ponytail:
I love how easy and effortless this hairdo is. In addition, every woman looks good in a well sleeked ponytail. It goes with every corporate attire that you can think of. You can go for a ponytail made out of hair extensions, or a weave. You absolutely cannot go wrong with this style.
The Classic Bob:
I cant help but remember a tweet someone made a while ago about women on bob wigs looking absolutely beautiful. This tweet was supported with quotes from men affirming the earlier declaration. Unsurprising,this hairstyle is very popular amongst women because it is easy to style, and quite cheaper compared to other wigs. This is yet another hairdo that goes with almost any attire & event you can think of.
Cornrows:
The go-to hairstyle when you’re looking for a protective style, the Cornrow is a simple yet effortless hairdo to opt for when you don’t have time to style your hair before you rush off to work. Just keep in mind to keep the style simple and chic, avoid any dramatic flair.
Short, Natural Hairstyle:
This hairdo is pretty self-explanatory. This is the most low-maintenance hair there is and depending on how strict your workplace is, a natural pixie cut can do the trick.
Straight Hair Wig:
There’s something about a straight hair wig that screams sophisticated, especially when it is parted at the centre.
To properly convey the professional look, endeavour to tuck loose strands behind your ear so you can avoid the trouble of having to consistently re-adjust the strands when speaking with your work colleagues or clients.
