I love having curly hair as much as the next person, but the damage that a straightener or curling iron does to my hair isn't worth it. This simple, fast and easy method will give you effortless and natural looking curls without using any heat. Another thing I love about wearing this hairstyle is that because it involves a drying process it curls even my hard-to-curl hair! If you do this after taking a shower right before bed and then sleep on it, you will wake up with a already styled head of hair! So easy, right? If you like what you see, keep reading!
This next part you can do one of two ways: the dry way or the wet way. Both involve the same steps, but it's up to you on how you want to do it.
The "Dry" Way-- First brush through your hair to ensure there are no tangles in it. Then, take a a spray bottle and get your hair thoroughly DAMP. You want your hair damp, but NOT wet, or the hair will take for-stinkin-ever to dry! Use mousse for even better hold. This method will hold longer than the wet method because the roots of the hair are not wet.
The Wet Way-- After you get out of the shower, towel dry your hair so that it is DAMP. Carefully comb through your hair and apply mousse for extra hold. This method is quicker and much more convenient than the "dry" method, so this is what I end up using mostly.
Now divide your hair into 2-3 equal sections, depending on your hair thickness. Pull one section directly onto the dead center of the side of your head. When you are trying to think of where to place the twist, think about a five year old's pigtails :-)
Begin to tightly twist the hair until it twists in on itself, forming a bun. Secure the bun loosely or the inside of the twist will again, never ever dry!!
Repeat with the remaining sections of hair. Remind anyone of Princess Leia? :D I know, it looks a little bit ridiculous, but that's why it's best to sleep on the buns and take them out the next morning. Add a little hairspray if you are afraid they won't stay even after the mousse. Now, just sleep on it and be prepared to look amazing in the morning!
Take the buns out the next morning and Voila!! Stunning, natural curls! If your hair doesn't hold curl well, add more hairspray! And it only took ten minutes!! Enjoy wearing these curls and leave a comment letting me know what look you want me to do next!
