DIY: Towel wrap for hair

Episode 2

Hi peeps.. wassup?

Here I'm again with another DIY.

First of all lemme tell you the purpose and the need to do this one.

Wrapping your wet hair in a towel in an age-old fashion can actually damage your hair fibers, by causing breakage of them due to the pulling of hair tightly. And, rubbing your hair with towel against each other to dry them is a big no no. It leads to damaged and dull hair. Also, blotting over and over is time consuming. So, today I'm going to share with you all a quick DIY towel wrap for hair. So, that moving along in your routine can actually save you some time. The towel will absorb some of the moisture while you are getting dressed or doing your makeup. And, there would be literally no hair breakage. You can repurpose your old towel, a long enough napkin, or even a t-shirt for this one. I'll suggest you to use a fabric which absorbs water really quick. This is a quick procedure and an easy to use DIY. 

So, let's get started.

• What you will need?

1. Old towel/napkin/t-shirt/ any cloth that will absorb water nicely.
2. A ruler
3. A marker pencil/chalk used on clothes
4. A pair of scissors
5. A thread
6. A needle
7. A rubber band
8. One button

• Step-by-step Procedure

1. Mark the line.

Now, the towel I'm using is so long that I can actually make 2 towel wraps in it. So, I'm making one for me and another for my mom. Fold the towel in a half as shown below and draw the following curve using a marker. For the measurement, the peak of the curve is 12 inches from the base and the base is 22 inches long. Now, this measurement of the base is for medium length hair. It may vary according to your hair length.

2. Cut as per the required shape.

Using a pair of scissors, cut along the curve and also the base in case it's not already open. 

3. Sew along the curve.

I've sewed along the curve using a sewing machine. You may follow the age-old procedure for this one. Do NOT sew the base line. First of all I've sewed from inner side. Just as a preventive measure I've also sewed from outer side. So, that there's no chance that it could be ripped.

4. Joint rubber band and the button.

Now, as I've shown in the picture below, add rubber band and the button on the respective sides by of course sewing them.

And that's it! you are done with a procedure as simple as this.
