Rylie Horrall<\/strong> |\u00a0 Lifestyle Editor<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re like me, self-isolation could be making students ponder changing their hair more than normal \u2014 personally, I\u2019m only one breakdown away from dying my hair. However, I don\u2019t actually want to dye my hair, I just want something different or new in my life amidst all this monotony. To cope with this, I\u2019ve been searching and trying out new hairstyles; here are some of the interesting ones.<\/span><\/p>\n For turning straight hair curly without using heat, take either a bathrobe rope, socks, pantyhose or something similar and clip it into the hair. Wrap strands of damp hair around the article tightly, but not painfully so, in a criss-cross fashion. For waves, braid the object in the hair as if it was a section of hair. Leave it in overnight, undo it in the morning and brush it out.<\/span><\/p>\n Buns are a quick hairdo that can be done within seconds \u2014 it\u2019s my go-to whenever I need my hair off of my neck. If someone\u2019s hair is longer, there\u2019s the option of doing a braided bun; to start off, tie the hair into a low ponytail. Braid it loosely and tie off the end, pulling at some of the strands to add volume. Take the braid and wrap it around the base like a bun, and secure any loose ends with bobby pins.<\/span><\/p>\n Have shorter hair and can\u2019t fit it all into a ponytail, let alone a bun? Take half of the hair and pull it towards the top, like a high ponytail. Lace the hair halfway through a hair tie with one hand, then twist it while holding the hair in the other. Pull the hair through, then pull and twist to style as desired.<\/span><\/p>\n For those who want to keep their hair down and out of their face, try making a headband using hair. Separate two front pieces and tie the rest into a ponytail or bun to keep out of the way. Take the two front strands and secure them at the nape of the neck with a small elastic or thin hair tie, then let the rest of the hair down. To add some flare, braid the strands or twist them before tying them off.<\/span><\/p>\n If styling isn\u2019t preferred or a person\u2019s hair is too short, get a bandana that might be lying around and fold it diagonally. Section off two framing strands \u2014 or don\u2019t, if they aren\u2019t wanted \u2014 and put the rest of the hair in a ponytail, if it\u2019s long enough. Grab the ends of the bandana and flip it so that it lays flat behind the strands. Tie the ends of it at the nape of the neck and then take out the hair from the ponytail. Alternatively, the bandana can be placed at the back of the neck and be tied at the top near the framing pieces. If this is done, tuck in the corners of the fabric that are sticking out.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/files\/2020\/05\/20200504_113000-1024x498.jpg\")
