How to Band Natural Hair – Oklahoma City Hair Salon

Natural hairstyles have become very popular, and with them come special care needs. Natural hair is prone to breakage, and high heat tools add to this tendency. One way to help your hair relax before you style it is to band it. Banding stretches the hair gently without heat. It is one way to protect your natural hair from damage, while making it more manageable. All you need to band your hair are good quality covered ponytail holders. Be sure to get ones that are wide enough to band your hair correctly, and have enough padding protect your hair.

After you wash your hair and towel dry it, use a large tooth comb to detangle it, and apply a leave in conditioner. Section out your hair like you are going to do all over braids. Apply moisturizer to the first section of your hair, and place a covered ponytail holder at the base. Add more holders spacing them a half inch to one inch away from each other. Continue down the section of hair until you reach the ends. Braid the ends which are loose. Repeat this process on all sections of your hair, and let dry overnight.

In the morning you can take the bands out and style your hair. Your hair will be stretched and much easier to braid, twist, or set in flexi-rods. Banding is a great choice for children’s hair. It protects their hair from heat while making it much easier to work with. Ask your stylist for suggestions for moisturizing and conditioning products to protect and nourish your natural hair. She can also help you learn how to band your hair, and give you suggestions about styling.

How to Do Hillary Duff’s Side Braid

At her recent book signing for her new book, Devoted, Hillary Duff wore her hair in an edgy side braid. What made this look different was the addition of a strip of leather into the braids. You can add a leather strip like Hillary did, or you can add some ribbon or feather extensions. To style a side braid like Hillary’s you first need to add some texture spray to your hair and rough it up with your hands. Next separate your hair into three pieces and pull them off to one side. Attach the leather strand with an elastic onto the middle braid. Create a loose braid and secure the ends with a hair tie. Wrap any extra leather strand around the hair tie and tie it. You can leave the stray strands loose, or secure them with bobby pins. Spray your hair all over with some hair spray and you’ve got a pretty twist on traditional braids.

An alternative to a side part is a side ponytail. Use some texture product to make your hair easier to work with and to give you some volume then rough up your hair with your hands. Gather your hair into a side ponytail and secure with a hair tie or barrette. You can wear your hair in a deep side part like Hillary did or if you’d rather, part your hair a bit off center. An off center part is slimming to your face and keeps your style from looking too severe. If you want some lift in the crown, gently backcomb your hair and then smooth your hair down with a paddle brush. Have fun experimenting with different variations, and ask your stylist for recommendations on professional products to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy.
