Let me show you a trick. So, and this is it. It's definitely fall season, so this is going to be very useful. I mean, besides me, I'm in Los Angeles, so it's going to be 100 degrees tomorrow. But hey, for all of you fall fans out there, let's get cozy for winter. Yay. All right, let's try this. If I do it like a cloak, right? My hair.
