CuRLs

One of my favorite things to do to hair is use hot rollers. They are perfect for almost all types of hair. They literally put the bounce back into your look. If you have medium to long hair you will want to blow dry your hair after washing it and then put large rollers in. The best thing is you can go about finishing getting ready and take them out once they've cooled. Here is a before and after to show you the fun results!

Erin has beautiful hair that is long enough to use large hot rollers, if you have shoulder length you would want medium size. You want to use the rollers right after blow drying because your hair will take the heat and curl better and then you get this gorgeous look....

Then style as needed and your ready to go!

I also wanted to give you all some ideas of another type of curl. Those of us who have naturally curly hair and may get little overwhelmed by it here are some tips. Moisture is key so once you get out of the shower keep your hair very damp, comb it then scrunch it with whatever curl product you like (I like aquage curl gel or cream) take a towel and scrunch the dampness out of the hair with it. Then blow dry with a diffuser. At that point your hair will look kind of big but it will calm down :) One way to help with that is to take a curling iron and manipulate a few of the front pieces just to soften the look. The great part about this is how easy it can be whipped up into an updo with these curls. Even the next day if you don't like to wash your hair everyday you can get out the curling iron, touch up a few pieces and you have your "honeymoon hair" its one of my favorite looks! Here is a picture of that hair type in an updo (I used the exact steps mentioned above on her)
Gabrielle was going to a New Year's party so we had to make it a little more polished. : )
