Those 12 hour shifts are great in a lot of ways. You get 4 days off during the week.  The down side is, well, 12 hours is a long time to do the hard work required in nursing, and there is not a lot of time between shifts if you are headed back in the following day.  You really have to make the most of that off time, and that does not allow for a lot of time to work on your hair.  You do however have some options to make the most of quick and easy styles that will hold up to those long 12 hour shifts. Short Hair Short hair is often more difficult to style than longer hair simply because it has to be styled and cannot be pulled into a pony tail.  For very short hair, most likely a blow dry with a little styling cream will do the trick.  If you opt for full or curly hair in short hair, use a stretchy hair band, place it around your neck and then slide up slowly, lifting hair from underneath. Once lifted, sprits with water or a little hair spray if you prefer.  Let it sit that way
