Start with loose, dry hair. Part the hair down the middle from the crown to the nape with a rat-tail comb. Be sure to remove the rollers if you've recently roller-set your hair. If you'd like to wrap your hair in a straight style, you can apply a small amount of heat with a flat iron first.

Apply a frizz-reducing spray like John Frieda Frizz Ease or Herbal Essences Frizz Defying Spray. You can also use an oil sheen or your normal hairstyling product.

Beginning with one parted section of your hair, brush upward from the nape to the crown, smoothing the hair with your hands as you go. Depending on the thickness of your hair, you may need to use hairpins to keep it in place. Continue to brush in a circular, swirling motion until both sections are brushed around your head. Again, use hairpins if necessary to keep the sections of hair secured.

Use a hair net or bandanna and tie it securely around your head. This will protect your wrapped hair while you sleep, and keep your style looking fresh. In the morning, remove the hairpins and hair net and style as usual.
