If you are looking for an easy hairstyle without using hot irons, then wrapping your hair around your head will straighten your locks while adding a little oomph to your hair. Wrapping your hair is relatively simple, and it only takes a few minutes, which leaves you more time to play with your beau or catch up on your favorite shows.
1.
Comb your hair down and add a few sprays of setting lotion or a few dollops of wrapping foam to your hair. Your hair does not need to be wet or washed, but your wrap may look better if your hair is clean.
2.
Make a vertical part on the left side of your head, in the same manner that you would if you were to section out a bang in the front of your head.
3.
Use your non-dominant hand to hold the middle of your head, while using your dominant hand to comb your hair around your forehead in a circular motion. Continue combing all of your hair in a clockwise motion until there is no hair left hanging down.
4.
Use hairpins to pin your hair around your head and prevent it from falling out of the "wrap" circle. Wrap your hair with a silk scarf or doobie wrap and head to bed or sit underneath a hair dryer for 20 to 30 minutes if you are in a rush.
5.
Style your hair by removing the hair scarf and making a vertical part down the middle of your hair. Comb all of your hair down and out of the wrap. Your hair should be bouncy yet straight. You can re-part your hair in the direction of your choice.
