I admit it: I love a good convertible. I do not, however, love what they do to my hair. Here are some ideas on how to have your hair be convertible-ready for those fortunate enough to get to drive around with the top down.

1. Glam Scarf

You’ve seen it in the ’50s. You’ve seen it on Bridget Jones. You get a scarf–preferably a nicer one–and fold it into a triangle, slap it over your head, and then tie it under your chin. Pair with your fanciest sunglasses and you’re Grace Kelly. Feels silly, looks good.

2. Hippie Kerchief

Scarf-wear for the un-fancy type. Grab a handkerchief, fold it into the triangle, and tie it behind your ears in lieu of in front of your chin. For added security, hold it in with some bobby pins on the sides.

3. Headbands

Keeps the hair from blowing in your eyes while you drive, but still gives you the hair-in-the-breeze feel.

4. Ponytail

Obviously, only for those with hair long enough to all tie in. A high tight one or a loser chignon at the nape, whatever does the trick. Keep barrettes or bobby pins around for escapist strands.

5. Braid(s)

Also for the longer-haired-ladies, a good braid may even keep your hair under control better than a pony tail and be more comfortable. Bonus(?), your hair might be a little wavy when you take the braids out.

6. Product–or lack thereof

If you’re in the passenger seat and just want to let it all hang loose, that’s fun, too. It’s less fun when you get out of the car and your hair is in 3000 tangles because you used some pomade before you got in. If you’re going to ride with the top down, you probably want to make it a low-product day. Or else go with one of the tie-back options.

7. Brush

Crucial. Make sure you have one in the car. And go easy.
