Take one look at celebrities preening on the red carpet, and even the most relatable of stars become so clearly not "just like us." Now and then, however, we get glimpses of the human behind the glam squad. See: The Struggle Bun. Not to be mistaken for the Messy Bun–which could be intentional and red carpet-appropriate–the Struggle Bun is a topknot reserved for days you Can't Even. It is a savior when it's too damn hot and your best friend when you haven't washed your hair in five days.

The half-assed, off duty updo put together in seconds–usually with that hair elastic that lives on your wrist–is worn for grocery shopping, going to the gym, flying, and other regular-person mundanities. Consider it the sweatpants of hairstyles–lazy, comfortable, and strangely satisfying when seen on fancy people. Here, 13 stars living their best can't-be-bothered lives.
