If you’ve ever tried to get multiple kids ready at the same time, you know how quickly mornings can unravel — especially when hair products, brushes, and accessories are scattered everywhere.

This home hair station has truly been a lifesaver for our family for organizing hair tools, products and of course Evie Pearl Handmade hair bows! 

We keep it in our kitchen bathroom, and it’s the one spot all four of my kids use every single day. From quick school mornings to last-minute touch-ups, everything we need lives right here. We actually don’t even use the upstairs bathrooms in the mornings anymore — this has become our one-stop home hair station before busy school drop-offs.

Evie does her softball hair and dance hair at this mirror, and we use this setup multiple times a day. It’s simple, practical, and designed for real life.

Why a Central Hair Station Works for Busy Families

What makes this setup work isn’t anything fancy, it’s the fact that everything is in one place.

  • One mirror everyone can use

  • One basket with all the daily essentials

  • No running upstairs or searching through drawers

  • Kids can grab what they need independently

Having a shared station keeps mornings moving and helps everything feel calmer and more organized.

Hair Station Must-Haves We Use Daily

This setup is intentionally simple. Everything fits neatly in one woven basket that sits right on the counter, making it easy for everyone to see and reach.

Here’s what we keep stocked:

A Woven Storage Basket

This basket holds all of our hair essentials in one place — brushes, styling products, and accessories. It’s sturdy, neutral, and fits perfectly on the counter without feeling cluttered.

Continuous Water Spray Bottle

This refillable spray bottle is one of our most-used items. It’s perfect for:

  • detangling

  • smoothing flyaways

  • refreshing hair before styling

The continuous mist makes it quick and easy — especially for busy mornings.

Everyday Hair Brush

This brush is gentle enough for daily use and works well for smoothing ponytails, buns, and quick styles.

We keep just a few trusted products in the basket:

  • a lightweight spray gel for hold

  • a clean styling gel for slicked-back styles

  • hair ties for quick ponytails and buns

These are the products we reach for most.

Our Go-To Hair Accessories We Reach for Every Morning

No hair station would be complete without the accessories we actually use day in and day out.

We keep a rotation of:

  • Claw clips for quick, effortless styles

  • Soft headbands for school days and practices

  • Scrunchies that are gentle and easy for kids to grab themselves

These live right at the station so everyone can grab what they need without digging through bags or drawers.

If you want to see how we use this hair station in real life, I shared a full walkthrough over on Instagram.

This is the exact setup we use every single morning — from brushing hair to grabbing clips on the way out the door.

It’s a great way to see how all of these pieces come together in everyday use.


A Simple Setup That Makes Busy Mornings Easier

This hair station works because it’s realistic. It’s shared, it’s easy to maintain, and it fits into our everyday routines.

If mornings feel rushed or chaotic, creating one central spot for hair can make such a difference — especially with multiple kids.

I hope this gives you inspiration to create a setup that works for your family and helps mornings feel just a little smoother.
