Durags

A durag is essential for hair maintenance and styling. 

It prevents your hair from breakage and locks in moisture, which is especially important for textured hair. If you're working on 360 waves, a durag will help train your hair by compressing it and improving wave development. 

Beyond hair maintenance, this accessory is both stylish and functional, keeping braids, curls, or waves in place overnight or throughout daily activities.
