Sometimes you want to make a change to your current hair style that will give you a whole new look. If you have bone straight hair and want a curly hair style for a day, you can do it. Here are some options:
Are you looking for loose waves?
Here's a quick and easy technique you can use to get them. Shampoo and condition your hair normally. Towel dry. Create a bun at the nape of your neck by twisting your hair as you shape it into the bun. Pin your newly formed bun into place. Allow your hair to air dry naturally. When hair is dry, unpin your hair and should have long, loose, sexy waves.
Do you want a shaggy, wavy effect?
This one is easy to do. Shampoo and condition your hair. Towel dry. Apply a mousse or other styling product lightly to your damp hair to give it some texture.. While your hair is still damp, bend your head over so you're drying your hair upside down. Dry your hair with the blow dryer while using your hands to scrunch it. Once your hair is dry, throw your head back and immediately spray with hair spray.
Do you want more precise curls?
In this case you're probably going to need to use hot rollers. After applying the hot rollers to your entire head and allowing them to set, lightly brush the resulting curls and spray with hair spray to hold. You can also use standard hair rollers on damp hair or fashion your hair into pin curls using bobby pins.and sit under a hair dryer until the hair is dry. Use hair spray to hold your new curls.
Do you want permanent curls?
Although they can be damaging hair, a perm is your answer if you want to sport a curly hair style on a regular basis. If you consider how much heat manipulation you need to maintain your curls every day, a perm might be less damaging in the long run. Be sure to condition your hair well pre and post perm. Find a competent hair salon and get your perm done by a professional.
Do you want really edgy waves?
If you want waves that really stand out, give the crimping iron a try. This look was all the rage at the Fall 2007 fashion show in Paris. Most of the models sported some form of crimped hair, although not necessarily over their entire head. Always use a crimping iron on dry hair and be sure to use a good conditioner if you plan on doing this on a regular basis as the heat can be very drying. You may want to consider using a leave in condition to protect your hair. This little tool can be a great volumizer!
Now you can sport a curly hair style anytime you want even if you were born with stick straight hair!
