    Wrapping Hair: How I Mastered the Doobie

    /

    Wrapping hair, do not care. Check out my Achieve Select TV Actresses’ Hair with Motions post. Wrapping Hair: Background Wrapping hair is a foreign concept to me. Normally, right before bed, I’d stuff my hair into one of the satin hair bonnets I’ve bought from my local beauty supply store. However, I’ve decided to try my hand again at mastering the perfect beaten, bedtime beehive, minus the wrap pins.

To help my combat my acne scarring and hyperpigmentation, my mom, (also a devout Ambi user) recommended that I try the Ambi Fade Cream, which boasts Vitamin E, Alpha Hydroxy Acid and sunscreen among its ingredients.
