Long curls

[sockgirl77]

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).

I'm going to get it cut into long layers soon. I'll try the freshly ####ed hair and see if it works well. It'll go along with my freshly ####ed glow.

Try washing your hair at nights and braid it wet every night. When you wake up, your hair is dry to unbraid and you have curls.

No can do. I have to wash my hair in the morning.

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?

They suck. Hair would always get tangled. And if it wouldn't get tangled I'd get a lot of frizz/fly aways

So I guess I'm just going to have to try the freshly ####ed hair and see if that look helped. OR I'm going to see if there is such a thing as a perm that can create really big curls.

I don't see why a salon can't do a body perm with large rods and roll them vertical instead of horizontal. It may not stay in your hair as long as a typical perm, but it should be do-able. I think.

I just put it on FB for my hair stylist friends to answer.

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?

This has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever seen

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)

I didn't know you were a woman! Swear..........don't know why, I really did think you were a guy though

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

Or you could put the thing in and night and take it out in the morning. I know you mentioned how oily your hair is in the morning, try using that dry shampoo stuff or even a little baby powder to take out some of the oil

They certainly can

Your hair sounds like mine. Wash it at night and then use the dry shampoo stuff in the morning. Dove has one out that isn't bad.

I miss being on a cruise. I could wash my hair, get dressed, then step outside onto my balcony for a few minutes and then have amazing, full of body, soft hair. Now I'm back in Maryland and it looks like crap again!

Spiral perm. Popular in the 80s.

I had a spiral perm 6 years ago and I got blasted for not being "with the times". I thought that it looked great.

I heard spiral perms coming back in style. I haven't had one for 19 years or so.

I use Moroccan Oil curl cream, but that's for curly hair. They might have something to give you curls

The key is to get it loose looking. Alternating 3 different sized large perm rods helps. Also finger tousle it, etc.

I'm not? I just like my lovely lady locks

I think maybe if you just lightly spiral permed the bottom half of your hair you might get the same look you're after.

Where do you get that cream from? Always looking for good stuff to control my waves/curls. Thanks
