Mnemonic

Being flat isn't enough, so you cover the whole thing in hay (へい). Hay absorbs water, so you add a flat layer of it.

Imagine carefully laying a flat layer of hay on top of your flat horns. You feel really at peace and... you're tired now. You decided to lie on top of the hay and take a nap while you wait for your horns to dry.
