The pineapple hairstyle is a popular trend for people with coily and curly hair. It offers a simple and protective style that can be maintained overnight, preventing frizz and flattening while sleeping.
How to Create This Hairstyle
Step 1: Preparation
– Ensure your hair is completely dry.
– Have a non-indenting elastic or scrunchy band ready.
Step 2: Creating the Pineapple
– Gather all your hair at the crown of your head into a ponytail.
– Use a large claw clip or an oversized scarf to secure the ponytail. Silk or satin bonnets are also good alternatives.
Step 3: Moisturizing and Styling
– Apply a small amount of gel to moisturize and soften your hair.
– Create a ponytail using a spiral elastic or scrunchie, preferably made of satin.
– Secure the ponytail before going to bed to prevent friction on your locks.
– Brush through your hair for an untidy look.
Step 4: Enhancing the Pineapple
– For longer hair, add a headband a few inches past your hairline to create the pineapple effect without loosening your curls.
– Gather your hair into a high ponytail without tightness to avoid dents or creases.
– Backcomb or lightly fluff up your hair for extra volume and sleekness.
– Use a large jaw clip to keep long strands out of the way and maintain the structure of the hairstyle.
– Consider wearing a silk bonnet, satin pillowcase, or oversized silk scarf for extra protection while sleeping.
The pineapple hairstyle can be achieved on various hair lengths and is a great way to protect your hair while still looking stylish. Follow the steps and take precautions to ensure your locks stay intact and frizz-free overnight.
