As you may have noticed i've become a little obsessed with creating different hairstyles now that my hair is long. For Christmas i was gifted some sponge rollers which were on my Santa list :)
Last night i tried them out for the first time, i rolled my slightly damp hair in large and small rollers using the smaller at the top then i slept in them. Man i don't know how my Nana Betty did this every night, they were pretty uncomfortable but i suppose if you do it often enough you get used to it. I also added a little 'Curl Flex Shine Creme' to each section of hair before rolling to help keep the curl for longer.
This morning i removed all the rollers. The curls from the larger rollers were large and bouncy and one even dropped straight out but the smaller rollers created very tight curls that bounced right back towards my head. I think I'd have been better off using the same size all over my head except for the fringe because my hair was tightly curled on top but loose and more wavy on the longer ends. So, i decided to have an up-do and used this YouTube video as a guide (yes, i've been spending a LOT of time on YouTube recently :)
This is how it looked at 6pm tonight after a full and very busy day at work.
(thanks to the stranger who took my photo!)
I think i need to have some layers cut into my hair, it seems to be too heavy otherwise and maybe grow my fringe a little. I'll be practicing some more and trying other styles.
I've noticed a few others around Blogland trying new things with their hair too.
