The halo braid is the trend to follow right now when it comes to hairstyles. It’s beautiful, feminine and best of all, it hides your roots. When your hair is wrapped into a variety of twists and turns, roots tend to be less visible. If you don’t know how to style your hair into a halo braid, don’t panic. There are tons of tutorials on YouTube that’ll teach you the step by step process of this hairstyle.
The Halo Braid is an incredibly versatile hairstyle that can be dressed up or down for any occasion. Whether you’re going for a more formal look or a casual one, the Halo Braid can help you achieve the look you’re going for. It’s also a great way to hide your roots if you’re late for a salon visit.
The Halo Braid is created by wrapping your hair around your head in a series of twists and turns. It can be done with either two or three strands of hair and can be dressed up with accessories like hair clips, pins, or even flowers. You can also add in some curls or waves to create a more romantic look.
The Halo Braid is a great way to keep your hair out of your face and off your neck, making it a great choice for summer days when you don’t want to worry about your hair sticking to your neck. It’s also a great way to keep your hair out of the way when you’re doing sports or working out.

A headband is one of the easiest ways to hide your roots. You want to go for the wide stretchy type of headband that sits right on the edge of your hairline. You can wear your hair down with this headband or in a topknot, messy bun or other styles. The main thing is that your roots are hidden from sight. It’s a cute hairstyle, too.

3. The Curl and Tease Method
/filters:quality(70)/content/zi/ux/bob5md7b57d2f708b567a106631833_550x550.jpg)
The style you most want to avoid when you’ve got yucky roots showing is a sleek, straight style. Every root will stand out. Go for big hair when your roots are showing, such as the volume the curl and tease method gives you. Curl your hair with hot rollers or your favorite curling iron. I love the 1-inch curling iron by Hot Tools. Next, tease it at the crown, being sure to smooth it down afterward, and finish with an all-over shot of hairspray.
4. Create an Undefined Part

Wearing your hair styled in a perfectly straight part is a no-no when you’re trying to hide your roots. Even if that’s your normal style, it’s best to change it up until you get your hair done. Wear more of an undefined part instead. It’s not such a straight line to call attention to your roots. Undefined parts are softer, which helps camouflage the roots.
A great way to hide your roots is to add texture to your hair. Adding texture helps to create an undefined part, which will help to camouflage the roots. You can add texture to your hair with a curling wand, curling iron, or even a flat iron. You can also use a texturizing spray to help create volume and texture. Additionally, you can add highlights or lowlights to your hair to help blend the roots with the rest of your hair. This will help to create a more natural look and help to hide the roots.
5. Go Wavy

Many women have at least a little bit of natural wave in their hair. Enhance it by adding some curl cream or texturizing spray to bring your waves to life. This look is soft and tousled so your roots won’t stand out. If you don’t have any natural wave in your hair, you still may be able to wear this style by using a sea salt spray to create beach waves. Another option for girls with completely straight hair is to sleep with their hair in braids to create a wavy pattern for the next day.

Scarves are beautiful as hair accessories and can also help you to hide your roots. This look can have somewhat of a bohemian look.

Experiment and see what look you like best.
Wearing a scarf is an easy way to hide your roots and add a stylish touch to your look.
