Natasha Pickowicz has unimaginable hair, and a number of it. As a chef and creator (her new cookbook, Everyone Hot Pot, simply got here out!), she additionally has a bodily demanding job that requires it to be out of the way in which. “Once I first began, I’d pull it up in tight bun or ponytail, and it gave me TERRIBLE complications,” she says. By means of 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 a number of 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 favor big equipment which can be ‘in proportion’ to my hair, like huge floppy scrunchies. If you’ll find them on sale, Ganni ones maintain their elastic nicely and are available nice prints. My different tip is to go to Asian supermarkets or snack outlets — like Daiso, H Mart, or Teso — to get cute Korean or Japanese hair equipment for affordable.”

“I additionally love carrying giant bows excessive on my head, Minnie Mouse fashion. And oversized claw clips, that are ’90s/Moist Seal coded. I am going by SO many of those XL bobby pins, that are the one pins that preserve my thick hair in place.”

“Lastly, I’ve been carrying this gold ribbon as my fortunate attraction on my cookbook tour. It’s fortunate to put on gold in the course of the lunar new yr. I prefer it type of wrinkly/floppy, so it doesn’t look too twee. This one was actually the wrapping from a present my buddy Maria gave me at my e book social gathering.”
