Beauty
For your next sweat sesh.
Hot girls are focusing on their health and getting stronger this year — just look at Megan Thee Stallion and Kylie Jenner for some serious health journey inspo. Whether you are a Pilates princess, a mindful yogi, a serious heavy lifter, or a fan of the viral 12-3-30 cardio routine, it goes without saying that working out makes you feel good. Elle Woods said it best: “Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy.” (If you don’t understand that reference, immediately exit this browser and watch Legally Blonde).
Especially for the WFH girlies of the world (it me), daily gym sessions are a perfect excuse to *actually* get ready and go out into the world for a change. Personally, I find that I get a much better workout when I feel my best. In other words, that’s enough of an excuse to wear some lightweight makeup, sweat-proof “gym lips” and a gorgeous updo that screams effortless beauty.
From slicked-back buns that will take you from barre class to boozy brunch, to a wig-safe ‘do that won’t compromise your fresh new install, here are 10 easy workout hairstyles you’re going to want to recreate as soon as possible. You’re welcome.
