Let Your Hair Down Sunday...



There's something about curly wavy hair that is oh-so-SEXY,
The thing is... such natural waves are hard to achieve if you perm them at saloon,
Or worse... spending all the time on curling iron and only find all you curls straighten up after 20mins...
Now get you own big bouncy curls that LAST!

Firstly, prep your hair with your favorite setting product.
  1. For this look, you’ll want to curl your hair from the ends up. No fancy twisting, no wrapping it around the iron, just the way your momma taught you– rolling the hair up from the ends.
  2. Once you take the curling iron out, wrap the curled (still hot) hair around a jumbo sponge roller. SIDE NOTE: some of you may use or be wondering about using velcro rollers. I used to love them but the truth is, they break up that beautiful curl when you pull them out and tend to create frizz or static. I’ve never had that problem with these sponge rollers.
  3. Curl the next piece and put a sponge roller in right away.
  4. Continue until you’ve finished your whole head. Take a break to do your makeup, get dressed, make some coffee, read or go to bed if you’re doing this at night time. The longer you can leave them in, the better.
  5. Release all of the rollers gently.
  6. Brushing is optional but that’s how I get that soft glamourous wave. If you don’t brush it, you’re going to get more “locks” of big curl which can be just as beautiful. But either way, your curl will definitely last longer.
