Right here’s a bit up to date video on how I fashion my shoulder size hair – common readers have seen this all earlier than, I’m unsure a lot has modified.
The Cloud 9 curling wand continues to be the instrument of alternative (right here*) – it’s simply the proper diameter for the curls I wish to make (they rapidly drop into waves) and it doesn’t have a clamp to barter with. I don’t get on with the tongs with a clamp at all.
I select to curve fairly than wave as a result of if I simply wave the hair, by the tip of the primary day it’s nearly straight ,simply with higher texture and quantity. Curling it offers me no less than a day or two of full, attractive waves after which a day or too extra of texture. If I take advantage of sufficient dry shampoo and take a look at to not contact my roots I can get 4 full days out of 1 torturous curling session!
(It’s not that dangerous. I simply get aching arms from holding the wand within the air, which is testomony to how unfit I’m. Or possibly not unfit: untoned. My arms have at all times been weak and flimsy; it was my intention, after I was in my twenties, to essentially buff them up, GI jane-style, and do pull-ups like Sarah Connor in The Terminator however I feel I managed about 4 pull-ups, as soon as, earlier than I made a decision that arm energy wasn’t for me.)
After curling the whole thing – it’s essential to part off tiny strands as a result of in the event you attempt to do chunks which might be too huge they don’t curl so properly – I spray my roots with Dwelling Proof Dry Quantity spray (right here on-line*) after which the entire thing with Elnett hairspray (on-line right here*.)
Dry Quantity Spray is a hair miracle in a can: spritz roots and therapeutic massage in and BOOM. Huge quantity with none crunch or stickiness. It’s quick turning into my “can’t stay with out” hair product. Elnett is for holding the waves. Once more, no stickiness or crispiness, this simply brushes out in the event you want it to, although I like to only layer it over various days till I’m left with an enormous, grippy mass of hair on prime of my head.
Any questions, let me know within the feedback. My hair, by the best way, is reduce to all one size simply at shoulder degree in a type of blunt-ended lengthy bob. No layers.
