We could go on and on about the woes of hat hair in the winter, from how to prevent it to how to get away with wearing your hat all day when things get really bad, but to be honest, we are over hat hair. It’s time to talk turtleneck hair. The trend of keeping your hair nonchalantly tucked into the neck of your chunky knits and coat collars has been spotted everywhere from the runway to the street, in J.Crew catalogs and on Olsen twins, and for good reason — turtleneck hair keeps you warm and makes you look effortlessly cool.

Whether you’re in the midst of a polar vortex like we are here in New York City or you’re contemplating a winter bob, it’s time to take this winter style for a spin. To help deal with inevitable static that comes along with all winter dressing, start by spraying hair with R+Co Foil Frizz + Static Control Spray ($17) which combats static with a combination of vitamin E, argan oil, and a special Anti-Static Agent. Next step? Pull on your turtleneck and let your hair spill out of your neckline naturally. If you want more volume or loose pieces, pull and play until you get your desired style. Lock in your style with a flexible hold hairspray (we like Dove Style+Care Strength & Shine Flexible Hold Hairspray, $5). Voila! You’ve mastered turtleneck hair.
