My new work schedule has changed a lot lately so our hairstyles have gotten really simple. I bathed my daughter the other night and she asked for curlers put in her hair. I use sponge curlers since I think they are easier to sleep in.
To get big curls I made large parts and wrapped them tightly around the curlers.
When she woke up the next morning I took a blow dryer to make sure all the hair was dry.
Shown below I took one curler out to show the large curls these made.
Take out all of the curlers
She asked for a ribbon headband. Since we all know these don't stay in all day by themselves. I took a small amount of hair just above each ear and singled it out. Then place the ribbon behind that hair. Pull the small amount of hair that was left out across the ribbon and take another small amount of hair on the opposite side of the ribbon and secure with an elastic. (SHOWN BELOW).
Take both sides of the hair and secure together at the base of her head.
very cute. I remember foam roller days WELL! This is how my hair looks in almost all of my school pictures. and any other fancy occasion! lol
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know I got my sidewinder hairholders yesterday. I can't wait to try them out this weekend.
ReplyDeleteDoes her hair actually hold the curl? I used to put sponge curlers in my daughter's hair almost every night (before I had other kids and life got so crazy--lol), but when her hair got longer and thicker, it never dried overnight. I even tried the blowdryer in the morning, but it still doesn't dry all the way through to the bottom of the hair. I've tried several times since then thinking maybe it was just too wet or something, but I still haven't had any luck. I do put them in my younger daughter's hair every couple of weeks, and it turns out adorable, but it only works on her hair because her hair is shorter.
