So, you sign up for a morning gym session and have to head to the office right after your sweaty workout. You cleanse your face and put your makeup on but what do you do with your hair? You can’t show up to the boardroom meeting with icky and limp hair wisps all over your face.

Well, what if we told you that there’s a way to make sure your hair doesn’t tell the tale of your workout? Yeah… you read that right. Here are five genius tips to deal with sweaty gym hair so you can go from workout to work with flawless-looking hair.
