A puff

Hello How Natural Beauties, a puff is the go-to hairstyle for naturalistas.

There’s no busier time than the holiday season! It can be very stressful trying to buy Christmas gifts, decorate, make travel arrangements, cook, clean, host holiday parties, keep the kids entertained, etc.

There is absolutely no need to add your hair to the long list of holiday stressors. If your schedule and life is anywhere near as hectic as mine; you didn’t have time to style or even think about your hair. My hair was literally the last thing on my list of things to do. I went to bed on Christmas Eve with a bonnet on top of loose, untwisted hair and any naturalista knows what that means…shrinkage. I mean, at least I had the energy to put on my bonnet.

The morning of Christmas, I misted my hair with water, brushed it into a ponytail, added a hair tie for a puff, put on my makeup and I was ready for a fun-filled day of Christmas activities with family and friends. The puff is a tried-and-true hairstyle for any naturalista on the go. The puff works so well because it is:

  1. Great for new naturals trying to grow out their hair
  2. A fairly easy style to achieve
  3. A quick go-to hairstyle
  4. A look that can be formal or informal
  5. Versatile (can be worn as a high, low, or mid puff)
