If there’s one look I will always come back to, it’s a clean slick back. It makes you look instantly put together, takes under 10 minutes and works for everything from class to workouts to running errands.

Slick Back Brush
A slick back brush can MAKE the look. This is one area I would especially suggest investing in. Don't worry though, I have a variety of price ranges in my reccs
This one has a mini inside of it! warning though that sometimes it is hard to grib bc of this
