PHHB

Items needs: A knee-high or a pair of stocking.

 

Instructions

Step 1: Wash/Condition your hair.

Step 2: Apply your products, I use a little gel.

Step 3: Spilt your hair into two sections and use a ponytail holder to make ponytails and let air-dry. Avoid using rubberbands, use a cloth type ponytail holder.

To make a single puff in the center of your head, checkout the instructions for making a PHHB or a Brastrap Headband below.

Notes

Here are some various ways you can make your own PHHB:

• Use a black knee-high

• Cut a piece near the toe to make ponytail holders.

• Cut a piece near the thigh to make a headband.

• Cut the legs for a longer headband.

• Use the elastic waistband part for a headband.

• Use a 'hair bungee cord'.

• You can also use a trouser sock or a thick shoelace to hold your puff back.

• You may have to push it up once you tie it. It may take a few times to determine where you want to place it on your head.

• You can also try to use a bra-strap headband as well!

• I've been wearing these since I first became fully natural and never had a problem with breakage. The key for me is to switch up the location of the puff (sometimes I place it at the top of my head, in the middle or really low), and never, ever wear them tight. Also I do not sleep in them - it may cause breakage from friction and put stress on the hairline.
