hair "how to"

i curl my hair a lot.

it is my hair-do of choice, so basically my curling iron and i are BFF.
well, this year i started going over to my mom's house in the mornings to work out, so after the workout i get ready for school there, and then head on off to do my bidness. naturally that means i have one set of makeup there, and one at home. the same thing goes for toothbrushes, straighteners, etc. one thing i don't have a duplicate of is a curling iron. so, at my mom's is the curling iron, and at home i am left without one.


being a human, i adapt to my unfortunate surroundings.
i had always heard that you could use your straightener to curl your hair, as long as the iron plates weren't wider than an inch...or somethin' like that. i also heard that it was nearly impossible to do if you didn't have short hair. i have also heard that zac efron is the hottest thing ever. basically what i am saying is, i hear a lot of things.


on one desperate day, i decided to be a big girl and test it out...and i ended up LOVING it.
it creates loose waves, that when tousled, looks pretty awesomespice.
here's how i did it...

i clamp a two inch section at the root, and then rotate the iron AWAY from my face, very slowly. with each rotation give yourself a little slack, as to let your hair easily slide through, between the plates. make sure not to clamp for too long in one section, or you will get a crease in your hair. it's all about "smooth sailing". yes...i just made that up. also, i like to leave about a little less than an inch of "ends" poking out, so that it doesn't look too finished. but, that's just me.


tousle, and spray!


the end.
