Long curls

[sockgirl77]

Any way to get this look without a curling iron or hot curlers? Is there a perm that will result in this look?

I have very little primp time in the mornings and my wrists hurt when I do curl my hair. My hair is well below the middle of my back now. I am thinking about getting it cut into long layers for more body. It's just blah now.

Just saw one on TV...

It attaches to your blow dryer, and has a Dyson like cyclone action.. Sucks your hair in, and twists it into curls..

It was awesome.. and since I saw it on TV it HAS to work, right?

I have a friend who I always thought had naturally curly hair. Turned out she just rolls her hair every night in foam rollers and in the morning, takes them out and has tons of curls. They are soft so you can sleep in them without issue.

I also saw an informercial for a product like a sock bun but when you take it out, your hair has waves/curls.

Oh I tried the foam curlers. My hair is way too long and thick for them.

I'll search for that sock bun thingy.

I hot roll my hair... It gives my hair body.... because I only have about 5 strands on a good day.

I use my straightener to get those types of waves. Pretty easy and only adds about 10 min depending on how many/curly you want it. (believe me, I'm up and out the door within 30 min of getting up because I love my sleep)

could go to the hairclub for men, and have them transplant pubes instead of asshair..

You don't have nearly as much hair as me though. You saw my hair, right? Oh and it takes me an hour and a half to get ready now thanks to my kids. I HAVE to shower every morning and my kids pussyfoot every morning.

That would be great if I wanted to wear my hair in a bun all day then have curls at night.

Mine is down almost to the middle of my back -

straightener is quicker than a curling iron. Simply wrap it, pull it, repeat.
Other than that - there is no perm that I'm aware of that will do that. Try going to bed with your hair wet/wrapped in a bun. I've tried that - get the waves - except the top looks a hot frizzy puffy mess.

Look on Pinterest, someone's always posting those "beach hair" pics. Or is that where you found this one?

I have to wash mine in the morning. It's naturally super oily. If I don't wash it in the morning it looks like I haven't washed it in days. So, I'd have to blow dry it completely then use the straightener. Grrr...there's just no easy fix I guess.

Has anyone tried any of these type of things?

No, I googled Kate Beckinsale because I love her hair. Well, I love her everything.

I have. It was a pain in the ass and my hair got tangled in it so I had to call my husband in to untangle it for me. I threw it away after that.

Dammit. I don't have a husband to untangle it.

If you layer your hair you might have more body. I have enough body to just add some curl cream, scrunch it with my hands, and let it go; it's a HUGE timesaver in the morning. The guys here at work call it the "freshly ####ed" look.

I've been using the Loreal EverCurl and so far I like it, my hair stays soft (not hard or crunchy like a gel or mousse).
