FAQ

Your Questions Answered

What headwrap material is best for natural hair?
Satin and silk are best for natural hair. They reduce friction, prevent moisture loss, and protect edges — unlike cotton which can cause breakage and dryness over time.
How do you tie a headwrap?
Place the center of the wrap at your forehead hairline. Cross both ends at the back of your head. Bring them back to the front and tie or tuck into the wrap. Pre-tied turbans skip all of this — just slip on and go.
Can I sleep in a headwrap?
Yes — that's one of the best uses! A satin or silk wrap at night protects your hair from friction against pillow cases, reduces moisture loss, and keeps your style fresher longer.
How do I keep my edges protected?
Use a satin or silk-lined wrap, don't tie too tightly, and apply a light edge-control product before wrapping. Avoid elastic bands that press directly on the hairline.
