I have SUPER straight hair and have been wanting to curl it! I dont want the wet look like scrunching with gels. I mean with a curling iron.. Any ideas? Thanks!

Here are some good products to use:
*TIGI Catwalk Frisky Scrunching Gel with Attitude
*Pantene Pro-V Curl Defining Scrunching Gel
*Garnier Fructis Curl Shaping Spray Gel (Strong)
If you must have a curling iron, some ideas are:
*Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron
*HAI 3 in 1 Ceramic Curling Iron
*Ceramic Tools Professional Curling Iron

It makes it easier because you can see exactly what you have and haven't curled.
I also put my hair in six plaits (in the same positions) after I've washed it. I look pretty dumb, lol, so I don't go out like that, but once my hair is dry I let it out and I have wavy hair! It stays in good if it dried like that, and it won't go frizzy unless you sleep on it.
Blessed Be,

Yeah i got an idea, and it won't cost much at all. Forget the curling iron bit! I mean who wants to sit in front of a mirror every morning trying to make their hair look good!
You don't want that gel look, well thats good because that is a really ugly look. HA ha ha Got to a salon tell the stylist you want to get your hair curly. Try and go with a thing called a body wave. These look really good on people with straight hair.
Get your hair washed cut and dried while you are there, then get the body wave. I guarantee you will love it! While your at it, get some highlights in you hair. When you come out of the salon you will feel like a new person!
