Ok ladies, this is just for fun. I found a really cute set of checks in my weekly add and brochure mailings and they are SOOOO cute! Here is my contribution to this odd little thread that hopefully some of us will have fun with. Here is the link...
Sometimes I roll my hair in french twists on both sides of my hair winding it away from my ears then pull it all into a ponytail and clip...It looks vintage and cute. Hairnets can be helpful with a ruined set to...brush it as best you can do the twist on both sides ponytail and wrap a hairnet...
I've been using the Motions at home lotion and it lasts roughly 2 days...I don't know about the lottabody...haven't gotten to try it yet but I would try putting the lotion on a wet comb and running it through my hair.
I noticed that the more lotion I used, the nicer my set. But it took courage...
Welcome MissS! Your hair is lovely! Hope your style lasts all day...I have Oriental hair and it took me all of two years to find a way to make it stay put. Normal products made it bog down:rolleyes: Hope to hear from you quite a bit in here and again welcome.
Audrey, I'm not great either but I'm getting better. I will do a tutorial and post it here soon, probably tomorrow as I'm setting my hair again tonight before bed. I have a few tricks, and the diagonal lines give your tired arms a rest.
Ladies....I was going to ask how to keep a set for two to three days...and you guys just saved me a bunch of looking through other threads for the answer. Thank You so much. I'm going to try that re-setting the existing curl idea.
P.S. My hubby is gone for a year so I have time to work out the...
For some reason the diagonall lines worked so much better for me 'cause I already have a deep side part in my hair. It's not lumpy or kinky in the back either. It also takes half the time to brush out. The alternating lines is what did the trick for me though....all the curls interlock and form...
Lolita Haze: Wow-O! You're right it's not quite the bette davis look but it's so retro...looks a little Ginger rogers from swing time in the front! So gorgeous!
Ruby Red/Raven locks: You are so pretty! I wish I was cute and brave enough to sport that really awesome hair. Way to go...
Well ladies here is the diagram from my latest pincurl style. I have a bunch of pictures that look like a tutorial in my photobucket but I don't want to bog down this thread.
If anyone wants the other pics posted please let me know.
Here's the finished look:
And here's the pin-curl...
Well ladies here is my latest outcome with pincurls and by far the best outcome yet I think. I'm posting the diagram I drew in the pincurl setting pattern thread.
I've just found my inspiration for my summer look! Hooray!
These are both images of Gene Tierney. She also has a great updo and I'll post that when I find where I put the pic.
I ADORE the new Yes To Carrots Body butter. It's sold exclusively at walgreens and works wonders!!! I think it's the same company from Israel that used to make my favorite facial peel. They are great...can't wait to try their shampoo, but can't currently find a good reason to get it since I'm...
Okay, I'm just crying on anyone's shoulder right now...My husband just left yesterday for Re-deployment. He did 5 years already (in the Army) and went to Iraq twice already. Now he's gone again. *sniff*
Just sharing and hoping everone sends prayers and best wishes his way. Hugs all
OH tell me about it...the stimulus overload makes my head feel like it will explode! I have to sneak off to the store when the hubby will watch my doll baby because I'm not a very good mommy when I'm in that store. lol
