Hello again! Welcome to another hair tutorial! Today, we conquer CURLING your hair. I use a different technique than most girls- only because I cannot figure out the "wrap" technique. So, I've made this one work for me. You can watch the video here or just view it below [there is definitely a cat cameo in the video]:
One thing to note is that this is the technique I use EVERY time I curl my hair. The only difference is if I want bigger, looser waves- I use a larger iron [1.5 inch] and much larger sections of hair. If I want "going out" hair, I use a smaller curling iron [1 inch] and smaller sections of hair. It is easy and can be as quick [or time consuming] as you make it!
The product I used in this video is the Aveda Light Elements Smoothing Fluid. It is a little more expensive, but lasts forever [years... and years]. If I ever use hairspray, I prefer the Bumble & Bumble thickening spray.
If you have any questions, please let me know!!

Thank you so much for these! I forgot to tell you that the other night I had a naked lady party and for some reason the topic of conversation turned to sock buns (typical I know!). Half of the girls didn't believe it would work or just didn't understand it so I ended up doing a sock bun demo and then a room of about 15 girls applauded and proceeded to do sock buns on each other. It may have been the girliest moment of my life and it was totally awesome.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA Oh my gosh! I love it!! Sock buns are such an amazing thing, mostly because you never believe it will actually work. So funny! I hope your party was fun... oh and also that THIS WEEKEND is perfect :)
DeleteYour hair looks GORGEOUS! I wish my hair held curls better so I could try this!
