  1. High bun

You can never go wrong with a high bun. Just tie your hair or braids, up then smooth out your edges using a little bit of gel.

  1. Wear a cap

Not to work though. Nonetheless, this is a good hack for when you can’t imagine taking down your braids or going somewhere with edges and hair strands all unruly.

Wigs are like an emergency tool kit. There are enough wig styles on the web so you can never run out of inspiration.
