*adlove* hair!

Just saw your comment in the ootd thread about my hair - thanks! Im not sure that you actually wanted info for real or were being nice but you're getting it anyway 😁

Don't know if you know about the 'no heat' curl method but its fantastic. Some people like the sock bun but i prefer using the headband method. Just google 'no heat curls' and it will come up.

For my bun I just put it in a high pony, tease it, wrap it around the base and secure with pins. I've discovered the less I mess with it the better it is.

Hope this helps!

Thanks kkloth! I've tried the headband curls once, but my hair is so fine/thin that it ended up making my curls sort of "kinky" hah. Same with a top knot, since my hair is so fine it's like non-existent. I'll try the teasing though that should help. I typically will just twist it up in a bun and use spin pins, but it's more of a convenience hairstyle, not a styled look that I do before going out. Thanks for the tips, I'll definitely try them!

So the headband can be finicky and I've definitely had kinky results before. My tips:

1. The smaller you make the sections, the tighter the curl will be
2. Do NOT do it with wet hair. It should be almost dry-ish
3. Careful how you pull it through - if it's right up against the headband it will form around the edges of the headband which is kinky. Hehe. It should be more of a loop.

Topknot - don't twist! Teasing and then wrapping is what makes it look full. I just learned this myself not too long ago.

Wow I have WAY too much time on my hands tonight.... 😳

I'm definitely trying the headband curls again over the weekend, thanks girl!!
