Heat-free curls!

that is bloody genious!! im trying this tomorrow night! =D

Tried it overnight and I looked like a pink Ronald McDonald this morning! I think it's still too short for it tbh, it was like a bad 80's perm! I took a pic before I put my hair up this morn, I'll post it later so if anyone has any ideas on how to do it differently please let me know! x

Oh no!  I had that problem with pin curling at first but you do get the hang of it.  Did you roll them up or down?  Maybe try taking smaller or larger sections and just curl the bottom so the top stays flat and not to volumus.  They do drop too as the day goes on.  Its trial and error really.  Yeah post the pic!

Gah, silly work computer converts my jpegs into mad files so will have to upload at home. I had the same issue with pin curls as well, I think I might have used too many socks (that sounds bizarre..) but with the different lengths it was difficult to just get it into 3 or 4! x

When I started doing it I managed 4socks, now I'm onto 8.

Finally - here is the pic, I had a half day of panic where I couldn't fine my camera, found it in my handbag that I had already checked three times..don't you hate it when that happens?!

Please excuse my morning bleariness / trampy-ness haha

i really like it =)

Omg its so curly and prettyful! You did amazing!
I think im going to do this tonight, even though my hair is naturally curly anyways xD

Really? I think it looks awful....

i like it when my hair is super curly like that, then it gets prettier and prettier the more it drops out

I think it's because when I was at primary school in the late 80s / early 90s all of the teachers had horrid tight little perms like that and it makes me cringe. Maybe what I'll do next time is take it out as soon as I get up, so if it's before work I can see what the droppage is like after an hour - unless anyone can suggest how to get it looser?

A suggestion for making it looser! Try it with hair thats damp and not wet, think half/three quarters dry to just kinda set your hair.

or less socks?

Fatter socks will make the curls less tight. I think it looks good though.

I made it damp and used a teeny bit of setting lotion. Not sure how I could work it with different socks Tweetyeti - it's different lengths from front to back so it was difficult trying to get it into lesser socks - if you know what I mean! Thanks tho people 🙂 x
