Question Posted Thursday February 23 2012, 4:20 pm
I have super straight hair and i really like curly hair. Problem is I've tried everything but the curls never stay even with hairspray or gel. I've tried rollers but the curls fall out two minutes later. I've used a curling iron, but once I've finished one side (and applied hairspray) i start on the other side and the one other side's curls fall out. And i can't get a perm because of sun-in and hair dye. How do i get my curls to stay?!?

My hair was the same way until I found the right things to curl my hair. I can't promise that it will work for you, these are only suggestions.
I use the remington curling wand. It lasts throughout the say without any hair spray for me. I'm not sure what kind of curling iron you have, but curling wands (without the clamp) seem to work better. Also, the first website below is a good tutorial for curling your hair with a straightener. Keep in mind that the curls will only stay if you have a good heated iron. Also, ceramic irons are the way to go. Don't forget to use a heat protector!
For an alternative way without using heat, I section off my hair while it's damp and french braid it. I usually let it dry overnight and take it out the next morning. Also, the second website is a tutorial for curling hair using paper bags (I used an old pillow case, it works too).
I hope this helped! :) [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) [ mannequin24's advice column | Ask mannequin24 A Question ]
