No Heat Curls

I love curling my hair.  Since becoming pregnant my natural curl has become all sorts of funky, so I started using an iron or straightener more to curl my hair.  However, if any of you know my son you know that he does not nap, so I have very little time to accomplish the simple task of curling my hair.  So I thought I would look up ways to no heat curl it.  This way that I am going to show you now is the first one that I have tried and I love it!!  I find it weird to take pictures of myself doing this so don't mind how awkward they are!
1) Start with DRY hair!  I mean completely dry (if you find this doesn't work after your first time then slightly dampen your hair)  The first time I tried this I read that your hair had to be wet...  I work up looking straight out of the 70's with serious fro!
2) Run some of your favorite styling product through your hair I personally love sea spray or dirty styling cream from lush cosmetics.
3) Put a headband on your head like so! I pull out my bangs so the curl starts lower in my bang.

4) Grab a section of hair in the front and wrap it around the band.  The tighter and smaller the section that you wrap the tighter the curl will be.

 

5) Then add to the pulled through section a little more of you hair and continue to wrap until half of your hair is wrapped, there will be a tail left over.

 

 



6) Do the same thing on the other side

 

 

7) grab the tails from both side and continue to wrap them around the hair band.  I don't wrap the very ends of my hair because then they tend to get all knotted around the band.  I just tuck the ends into the rest of my hair or bobby pin them!

8) Hairspray and sleep with this super cute grandma hair... I know its sexy!

 

9) when you wake up simply remove the head band and run your fingers through the curls.  I leave it in while I do my makeup.





10) Touch up if needed with an iron and curling your hair without damaging it (which is always a bonus)
