Foam

Okay, I know how bad this can turn out, but here is a trick that I have learned. Most of you all ready but just in case you don't-
Depending on what kind of curl you want will help you pick your size of roller. We like lose curl at the end of the hair so we use the bigger ones.
Start by putting the roller up a little bit higher than the ends. tuck the ends under and roll up a bit to secure the ends. KEEP IT LOSE!you should not see any indentation in the roller. The foam should stay the same size as when you start. Really the key is to keep it just tight enough to keep the hair in place. Doing it too tight will make it really hard to unroll when it is dry and that is when you get frizz!This is a fun way to roll the hair, besides just keeping it straight. When you braid the hair it makes it look like a wavy perm. You don't have to french braid it to get a fun look. you can just do a regular braid with each section of hair. Give it a try and let me know how it turns out!

A trick

So I was looking around the other day and stumbled across this. It is so easy and such a neat tick I thought I would share. Sorry I do not remember where I saw it, but I am for sure not taking credit for it!!!




Take a regular kid sock and cute a hole in the toe.
Then roll it up like this:

you will notice you will have a rough side and a more flat side

Rough: Flat:

The part the hair how you want- if you are going to do 2. Little Bean did today. This is super cute with just one also.Slide the sock onThe have her lay her head to a side and spread her hair around the sock. I use another elastic to secure the hair. Little Bean's hair is so long that we have lots of end left
so I divide the ends and wrap the around the bun and secure with a little bobby pin.

So cue and really it took me less than 5 minutes!
