How to Put Waist Length Hair in a Shower Cap

Last Updated: November 26, 2018

Sometimes while taking a shower, you are in a hurry and you just don't have the time to dry your hair. A simple solution in this situation is to use a shower cap. But, there is a problem for some people: what do you do if you have waist length hair? Well, here's an article that will tell you how to put your super long hair into a shower cap.

Steps

1
Put your hair in a messy bun. First, take a hair elastic and pull all of your hair through it as if you were putting your hair up into a ponytail. Next, twist the elastic around and pull your hair through it all the way. Finally, twist your hair elastic again and pull your hair through partway. Your messy bun is complete.
2
Put the palm of your hand on your neck, beneath the messy bun. Then flip your head upside down and use your hand to push the messy bun upside down too.

What if the shower cap falls off in the shower?

Community Answer

Before you shower, put on your shower cap in such a way that it does not feel loose, covering your ears and all of your hair. If your shower cap falls off while you are showering, put it back on, making sure to position it securely.
