The art of laying down your baby hairs is precisely that – an art. Although many products out on the market say they’ll get your baby hairs right, the best products come few and far between.

Saweetie, Selena Gomez, J. Lo and Beyoncé are but a few of the many celebrities who have stepped it up in the baby hair arena. However, we’re all stuck in Zoom meetings and virtual hangouts nowadays; what better way to spruce up your look than a poppin’ hairstyle that’s easy to achieve?

Whether you’re creating Saweetie-level swoops or just attempting to keep your hair laid down after a workout, you will need the right tools to get the job done. How you do your baby hairs are totally up to preference, but there are still some fundamentals.

No matter your modus operandi, you’ll need a trusty comb to grip your hairs as well as a scarf or bonnet to tie your hair down, especially at night. The friction against pillowcases can dry out hair and make ends brittle. The true test is in the hair gel you choose — you’ll need one that’s thick enough to hold your edges in place but not so thick that it feels gunky.

These are the best gels for baby hairs, approved by us.
