5 Easy Head Wrap Styles for Busy Mornings (Curly Hair Approved!)

 

When you’re short on time but still want to show up looking like that girl, head wraps are a true game-changer. They’re not just protective: they’re expressive, creative, and a whole vibe. In this post, I’m sharing 5 go-to styles from my 30-day head wrap series (watch here on Instagram) that are quick, cute, and perfect for curly hair. Whether you’re running late, headed to brunch, or working from home but still want to feel pulled together…these styles have you covered (literally).

The Looks:

1. The Classic Headband Tie
I love this one for day-to-day errands or when I want my bangs to do the talking. Take a long scarf, fold it lengthwise, and tie it at the back or top. It’s giving casual chic and works beautifully with defined curls or even a refresh day.

2. The Satin Top Knot
A full coverage look with a knot on top that feels like a crown. This one’s ideal when your curls need a break or you’re stretching a wash day. Choose a satin wrap to protect your strands and reduce friction.

3. The Quick Bandana Fold
Lightweight scarf folded into a triangle and tied under your puff or bun. It’s a nostalgic style that brings the 90s energy while being completely functional. Works great with high-shine accessories.

4. The Wrap & Go
This full wrap is for days when you're running behind and want something simple that still makes a statement. Choose a fabric blend for hold, and don’t worry about perfection…it’s the confidence that pulls it together.

5. Mini Wrap with a Bun Peek
Hair up, edges laid, wrap tied around the base—it’s giving sleek, fresh, and flirty. Bonus points if you add a fun lip color or earrings to match your scarf!
