Adding Head Wraps To Your Hair Routine Is The Ultimate Protective Style

Stretch Head Wraps

I purchased two stretch head wraps on Amazon in orange and brown (but there's a variety of colors available). Personally, it's my favorite type because it feels softer on my hair, allows you more flexibility to twist and wrap it however you'd like, and plus it's lightweight. If you're trying headwraps for the first time, I would start out with a cotton or stretchy material, it's easier.

I really have no method to styling my head wraps. I think the fun part is being able to style it however you want and finding one that fits you best. For me, I prefer the bun in front instead of on top of my head.

African Print Head Wraps 

African print head wraps come with so much history, each print and color pattern symbolizes different cultures and traditions. Every time I where one it reminds me of the paintings I would see at my friends' and grandmothers' houses. It's such a chic way to incorporate your culture into your style or just switch things up.

The textures of the African head wraps are also different, which I love. The cotton wax tends to make it more stiff and keep the shape — sometimes I don't even have to re-wrap my wrap, I can just take it off and it'll be ready-to-wear for next time.

Turban Shawl Head Wraps 

The Bohemian Turban Shawl Head Wrap was new for me. It had more material (it's made out of polyester and spandex) and two openings as opposed to one long scarf. It's very easy for a quick wrap and go; you just put it on your hair and wrap it around or into a bun. This is ideal for those who have long thick hair. It's long enough for any hair length and it stretches as much as you need it to. Plus, you can't go wrong with the beautiful vibrant color!
