How to Get Wavy Hair
My dad, who is now 82, always said that eating the crusts on my bread would
keep the curls in my hair - it took me years to learn that he wasn't telling the truth!
So, how can you create wavy
hair?
There's plenty of hair products to help keep the curl in once you create it,
here's Alissa's guide to creating the perfect look for loose, curly hair:-
If you have just bought yourself
some very expensive straighteners, or you are thinking about it, why not consider the idea of curling your
hair with straighteners? You can get more controllable curls
which are far easier to manage than your natural hair is!
Try:-
1. Make sure that your hair is semi-straight, or if not
straighten it.
2. Spray on some heat-protection spray and then divide your hair into sections. The fewer
the number of sections the tighter the curls will be.
3. Take the straightener and clamp it over the top of the section, then whilst pulling
down the straighteners turn the straightener round. To produce a tighter curl clamp harder with the straighteners
and pull harder when you bring it down.
4. Do not brush your hair after you have done this, but simply tease through with
your fingers. And add some shine spray.
Another way to curl your hair that always creates great celebrity styles hair
effect is to use some heated rollers. The type of rollers that you should get should depend on
how long and thick your hair is, and how tight the curl that you want to achieve is.
I would recommend for short thin hair to use a straightener (the above method) or tongs,
for thick medium length hair to use some medium sized heated rollers and for really long hair I would use some
very large velcro rollers. Try using these on wet hair and then drying off with a hair dryer (be sure to have
plenty of hair grips on hand however).
