Natasha Pickowicz has unimaginable hair, and numerous it. As a chef and creator (her new cookbook, Everybody Scorching Pot, simply got here out!), she additionally has a bodily demanding job that requires it to be out of the best way. “After I first began, I’d pull it up in tight bun or ponytail, and it gave me TERRIBLE complications,” she says. By trial and error, Natasha discovered a enjoyable fashion that works, and it couldn’t be simpler…
Says Natasha:
“My hair is thick and coarse, like numerous Chinese language hair. To maintain it out of my face, I pull the highest part again right into a small bun or half-ponytail with a hair accent. I choose large equipment which are ‘in proportion’ to my hair, like enormous floppy scrunchies. If you’ll find them on sale, Ganni ones maintain their elastic properly and are available nice prints. My different tip is to go to Asian supermarkets or snack retailers — like Daiso, H Mart, or Teso — to get cute Korean or Japanese hair equipment for reasonable.”
“I additionally love sporting large bows excessive on my head, Minnie Mouse fashion. And outsized claw clips, that are ’90s/Moist Seal coded. I am going by means of SO many of those XL bobby pins, that are the one pins that maintain my thick hair in place.”
“Lastly, I’ve been sporting this gold ribbon as my fortunate allure on my cookbook tour. It’s fortunate to put on gold in the course of the Lunar New 12 months. I prefer it sort of wrinkly/floppy, so it doesn’t look too twee. This one was actually the wrapping from a present my good friend Maria gave me at my e book occasion.”
