How do you wrap african american hair at night?

Question

I am wondering how to wrap my hair. I have always just went to sleep on it because my hair stays straight for a while. But wrappin it would keep it nicer, instead of it lookin flat. How do i go about doi this?

Answer 1

Ok here's a technique i use. 1st brush all ur hair from the crown forward into your face. Brush the sides down to ur ears and the back down to ur neck. Put ur palm flat down on the crown of you head and hold the top in place. depending on which side you part ur hair start brush ur hair in a circular motion with a good brush. i recommend a mason pearson or any boar bristle brush because it holds the hair tighter for the wrap and also stimulates the scalp. Dont give up it gets easier every day i swear. Use pins to hold down ends that fall. A good hair site to check out is Blackhairmedia.com.

Not all african americans hair is kinky. And they wrap there hair to keep it from tangling and to make it grow more or something like that. People say it's healthy for your hair. And no it's not just african american who do this. Other people do it to. Stop the fighting people =)
