JAKARTA - Hair that expands or hairlets that are not easily regulated will feel very annoying. Especially for those who want to use a sleek hair or fine hair style, glossy, and no hair out of place.

Therefore, many people use various products such as hair oil, serum, and anti-flood spray to overcome them. However, recently there was a unique hack to tidy up hair and make it more subtle.

Quoted from Popsugar, on Monday, September 22, 2025, the hack was shared by Matt Newman, a hairstylist from New York. In the video, he tidys his hair in a simple way, namely using yarn.

"One of the favorite #hairhack say's teething threads (dental floss) for #sleekhair," Newman wrote in the video caption.

To do the hack is quite easy. By taking enough dental threads, then pull it hard and gently rub from the roots of the hair down.

The wax coating on the teeth thread helps suppress the fine hairs that stand up and are difficult to manage. This makes the hair finally look neater and smoother.

Although the results are not as strong as a special hair care product, this trick can be an instant solution during an emergency. Its small and practical size can make dental threads easy to carry anywhere, even more practical than hair oil bottles or hair gels.

Thus, hacks tidying hair with dental threads can be a savior for tidying the ramput while traveling or attending important events.
