I spent last night doing to opposed activities...ironing and making my hair wavier. I've been doing a little reading on how to deal with my waves. I am glad that the trend to straighten, straighten, straighten has ebbed and now there are some resources on dealing with the swirls.
So I tried (and misunderstood) a technique called "plunking." You basically plop your wet hair onto a tee, by lowered your inverted head down to it, and wrap it up that way. But I missed the part about letting it dry all the way that way. Good thing, or it would still be wet! Instead I just let it get less drippy and air dried it while I slept. Still....noticeably wavier waves!
And I tried out the layered necklace, trend. I like it!
And when I was in the closet putting away all the ironed clothes, I found this silk skirt. Which was a tad too long and too tight in the waistband. So I pulled 'er up and cinched! ("Just cinch it!")

check out ouidad.com...or naturallycurly.com p.s. Plunking NEVER worked for me!
ReplyDeleteAshley- definitely will try the "rake and shake" method! How did I get to be almost 35 and not understand my hair???
