You may have grown up using a stocking cap to preserve your silk press. Perfecting the method feels almost like a rite of passage, but brushing your hair into the perfect circle and putting a cap on it is no easy feat — one that some of us (definitely not talking about ourselves here) still struggle with to this day. So the updated version that went viral on TikTok feels like a perfectly-timed gift.
This hair-wrapping hack involves parting your hair down the middle, cutting the ends of a pair of pantyhose, and placing the stocking on your head. Then, place each half of your hair in each "leg" of the stockings, pull it through, and tie it like you would a durag. This hack is so unbelievably genius we couldn't believe we hadn't tried it sooner.
