no heat curling method

the no heat curl post by chelsey of the paper mama blog piqued my interest!  the curls looked really pretty and easy enough to do.  so, i wanted to give it a try!  let the hair adventures begin...


chelsey also featured this video by the lipstick diaries:

 i set my hair (with no product and dry), on the headband (took me less than 10 minutes)...

this is how it looked on the side and back:

i slept on it...  and here's how it looked in the morning:

after i got ready, took the headband off, and finger combed my hair...  voila, curls!

i really love the softness of the curls, i prefer it over the curling iron!  gifted with super straight hair, humidity definitely won, and caused my curls to dissipate within a few hours.  i think i would get better results with some flexible hold mousse on damp hair, then set it for the whole evening...

most of all, i love this method because it's great for anyone who does not have time to fuss with curling irons, heat curlers, etc... 

i hope you get inspired making your hair extra special, everyday!  next on my list:  the no heat sock bun curling method.  post to follow...

xoxo, carla

that is amazing! your hair is longer then mine so i know i can do it! i love not having to use a blow dryer as it isn't too great for your hair. wow you are too gorgeous! will have to try this out!
