Hide and show element based on value Angular 2

I have some variable that is a boolean and can be true or false, based on that value I have to show some element in HTML like this:

<p *ngif=isOwner>Test</p>

The problem is I have that I have to hide that element is value is false but to show element is value is true:

this.storage.get('User').then((val) => {
    this.isOwner = val.Owner.IsOwner;
});

What will be the proper way to do that in Angular 2, just within HTML, value will always be there, and will be true or false?

Just inverse the boolean value of the condition:

See live stackblitz

export class AppComponent  {
  public isOwner: boolean = true;
  toggleIsOwner() {
    this.isOwner = !this.isOwner; 
  }
}

HTML

<button (click)="toggleIsOwner()">show/hide</button>

<p *ngIf="isOwner">Hello World!</p>

showMe is a boolean. The way *ngIf works is that when the expression is true, the element is inserted in the DOM, when the expression is false, the element is removed from the DOM.
