Fashion week doesn't only bring on clothing trends. No, no friend. It also shows us just how to wear our hair and makeup for the next few months too.

So what exactly are the top hair trends for the spring season? The simple bun and long, straight hair parted right down the middle. Fabulously easy indeed.

The way to get the long, straight hair look is obvious. Dry your hair and use your straightening iron! Voila! Needn't say more.

The bun on the other hand was reincarnated dozens of different way. We saw librarian buns, side buns, braided buns, messy buns, sleek buns, and pouf buns. This bun-o-mania means that us lay folk at home can A) do the look easily ourselves and B) stylize to suit our personalities.

So check out the gallery, find a bun that looks good to you, and rock it!
