Well, my hair is shoulder length, straight and totally flat unless I do something with it. So, I get up, run a comb through it and get to work early so that I can wet it down, run back to my office and blow dry/style it again. I actually do everything at the office (hair/makeup/getting dressed). I took an extra blow dryer, comb, hair spray and other "necessities" to work. I don't have a shower at my work so I use baby wipes (a necessity when you live in Tucson, AZ and it's 80 degrees at 6:00 a.m.), and wet my hair in the bathroom sink. I keep a towel at work for my hair. If you have the ability to do this, it works great. If you don't, then I would suggest braiding/pony tail styling to the hair. The only problem I have (and I know this is vanity) is that I don't want to run into my co-workers without my hair and make up done. So, I get to work at 7:00 a.m. (I start at 8:00 a.m.) to ensure that I'm pretty much alone when I arrive.
