I’m a hair expert, there’s an easy way to wash your locks in a rush – and it gives great volume AND shine

IF YOU'VE ever had evening plans but forgot to line up your hair wash days correctly, then you know the struggle of trying to wash your hair quickly.

It can make the getting ready process, which most of us girls love, far more stressful.

Luckily, one hair-care expert has revealed the clever hack she learned which will speed up the process and still make your hair look incredible.

, from the US, shared a video showing her routine on Instagram which has been viewed over 170,000 times.

She explains that you separate the top of your hair from the bottom and tie the bottom up in a bun so it doesn't get in the way.

Then, you take the top section of hair, rinse it, and use shampoo on the roots before rinsing it again.

She said to take care not to get the bottom section or the lengths of the top section wet to speed up the drying time.

Audrey then uses a round barrel blow dryer to dry her hair, and she was super impressed by the results.

She added: "OMG it's, voluminous, doesn't look greasy and the ends are so smooth."

Not only this but halved the time it would usually take Audrey to wash and blow-dry her hair.

Audrey did warn that by the time you wash your hair properly the bottom half is quite greasy, but that it was the only fault with the hack.

Users agreed it was a great time-saving hack, one wrote: "Yes! I do this all the time!"

"I always do this when I don't have time to fully wash my hair in the morning and it is literally a lifesaver." Another viewer agreed.

A third said: "I always do this, it's the best hack"

"I've been doing this forever when I'm too lazy to wash my entire head, I thought I was weird for it." A fourth user added.

Audrey also shared how to brush your hair correctly so you stop pulling at knots.

Speaking of hair news, this woman hasn't used shampoo in two years, but insists she's not lazy.

And one woman who got highlights done in the hair salon says they look so bad people think it's been done with a Sharpie.
