Paper wraps for hair, also known as papillotes, are thin strips of paper used to curl or style hair. These wraps are made from various paper types, such as newsprint, tissue, or parchment, and are often used as an alternative to heat-styling tools.
Paper wraps have been used for centuries to create defined curls and waves in hair, dating back to the 18th century. Their popularity stems from their ability to create soft, natural-looking curls without causing heat damage to hair. Additionally, they are a cost-effective and easily accessible option for those looking to style their hair at home.
