    Avoid using wraps that have a smooth texture since they could slip off. Go for something made of cotton instead.

    After you tie the knot in the wrap, tuck it underneath to prevent it from moving around.

    You can use a scarf made out of another material, but it may frizz or sap moisture from your hair. Consider using a shower cap or a soft pillowcase, instead.

    Use a large scarf, and wrap it around your forehead, tying it at the back. Then, tuck the excess fabric under the knot to secure your hair.

    After applying a satin or silk scarf, I secure it using a durag over the scarf. This way it stays on all night. Does anyone else use this method?

    That's a great way to keep everything secure and tidy! It also locks in moisture overnight and protects any styling. Great tip!
