Yes, I could do a complex Pinterest braid that makes me look like Hot Rapunzel, or I could do "nothing."

10 Hair Things Every Lazy Girl Thinks She'll Do One Day but Never Will

1. Doing a complex braid before you go to bed at night so you can have the perfect beachy wave in the morning. It's interesting that this move is considered a time-saver when you know what would save me even more time than learning how to do a Whispering Dutch Elf braid at midnight before I go to bed? Doing nothing. 

2. Hair masks that you have to goop onto your hair and then sit patiently while they drip down your back for an hour. If I'm too lazy to do a hair mask, I'm probably too busy to buy a new couch every few weeks because mine is covered in droplets of coconut oil. 

3. Hot oil treatments that involve a microwave and gloves. So you want me to take ingredients out of a cupboard, put them in a microwave, stir them, and then go through the above process of sitting in one place while it drips down my face and in between my boobs? I'm good, thanks. Split ends suit me. 

4. Regular freaking haircuts every six weeks. Haha, no. It's more like, "Every three months when I'm like, 'Oh, crap, I think it's been way too long and my hair looks like it got caught in pile of scissors.'" 

5. Root touch-ups that prevent you from ever having a visible root ever. Instead of my preferred method, which is to have at least, like, five weeks of visible roots. Praise hands that it's fashionable to have blonde hair and black roots, or I'd never leave the house. 

6. Tying your hair around your ponytail so it hides that you have a hair-tie in. Damn that looks chic, but also why is my hair elastic a secret I need to keep? I'm tired. 

7. Cleaning your brush thoroughly (like with soap and stuff). I've heard rumors that you're supposed to pull that clump of hair out and like wash it or something, but pulling that clump of hair out happens biannually at best, so I'm probably not going to be conditioning my brush on top of that. 

8. Cleaning hair out of your shower drain every day like an adult. Idea: What if I only cleaned it out when the water pools around my ankles because it literally can't go down the drain anymore? Eh? Eh?

9. Complex Pinterest braids that make you look like Hot Rapunzel. You could tell me that this doesn't require multiple people and also a series of woodland creatures to help you get it right, but I'd never believe you. 

10. Our own blowouts. Look, I know it saves money but when I try to do my own blow-out, it just looks like someone put a fan under my hair and blew it toward the sun. It's worth every lazy penny to pay someone else to do it right while I sit there chilling on Instagram like a boss.
