In light of yesterday’s post (thank you to those who defended their own views), today is about the fun side of hair.
You know me, I’m constantly battling my own locks. Over the weekend, I read this post on Joy’s Hope (great blog, btw) and was quite intrigued by the “no heat curls.” After reading, I promptly jumped in the shower to wash my hair.
My hair is crazy, so I had to take a leap of faith when deciding how to actually attempt the process. I decided having 100% dry hair, but un-straightened was the best approach. (When I straighten my hair, it acts like straight hair and refuses to hold a curl… unless, of course, it rains.)
I watched the video a few times to make sure that I wasn’t going to mess up. It’s much easier than the “sock bun” method, in my opinion (and works a LOT better too). So I twisted my hair around the headband as outlined.
Unlike, the video, I did not sleep on it. My hair, as previously mentioned, is crazy. I kept it in my hair for a little over an hour. (I loved having my hair tightly off my neck and shoulders and face while I did some reading for class.)
I took out the headband and voilà!
This was only after an hour, and I loved how it smoothed my hair out without using a flat iron AND it had tons of body. I’m tempted to try experiment with the process (e.g. sleep on it, straighten my hair first, use hair spray, etc.).
Has anyone else given it a whirl?
