hayyyy! how I curl my hair: a Vlog

let's call this:
the Horizontal, Wrap, & Hold! 
{update}


I did this style on clean hair, air dried, with no product.  if it's a night out, I might spray it with an all over hold spray when done curling.  BUT!  It can be done anytime, to add a top layer of texture,  and wave to any hot mess going on underneath!
using small sections, only on the crown, start from one side of your head and work around the back to the other side of your head.  Hold the iron barrel horizontally as you wrap the hair from the scalp to the hair end, don't clamp the iron {unless you are lazzzzy, like me ;) }  hold for 10 seconds.  That's it! 
ohmylord.
 I swear I will never, ever, Ever, EVER shake a curling iron at you 
and say never, ever, ever, Ever ~ EVER again. 

yes.  I'm hiding under my bed right now.
and praying this isn't how I really sound IRL.
Tristen warned me not to post this.
hopefully we can all still be friends.

it's NOT groundbreaking,
but Marina ~ YOU are the You! 
hope this is what you wanted to know!
mad props to all you ladies in the vlog world,
cause it's real easy to sound and look an idiot.
*cough*cough*
if you watched it ~ kisses!! <3

here's the final product:

Oh my goodness gracious.... you are too cute! I love your hair! Cool post and very helpful. I agree, I commend those vloggers out there. I tried it once and it will never happen again. Ha! Ha! It truly is a business, that's for sure.

Happy Day!

Marina said...

First of all, thank you so much for this. I think I speak for a tremendous amount of ladies who have a full head of wavy hair and have no idea how to manage it correctly. The trick that you show, and although it may be obvious to many, is not clamping down and more of a wrapping technique! Second of all, (or maybe this is third of all by now) You are a natural video-er, DONT HIDE under that bed! I am so glad I found your blog. You brighten the day. :)

This is faboo! I love you! And you are officially the lioness with that mane of hair. I swear I would stand in front if a fan just to watch it flow in the air.

Kristen @ Inspired Whims said...

Love you hair, M! Wish I had something like it to work with...any tips for flat, fine hair that doesn't curl?

Shannon said...

Totally watched it.
Totally hate you.
Because your hair is totally awesome!

You can go four or five days without washing your hair??? I can't go four hours without it getting oily.

Really. I hate you. But in the sweetest most loving way possible. ;)

I need to try this out! I have curly hair too and the bottom has body but the top is just meh. Thanks for the tutorial!

My-cliffnotes said...

Loved it! Trying it soon

Lindsay said...

You are too stinking cute! Can I PLEASE have some of your hair! My hair never turns out like this. Stupid thin, fine hair!

I think us curly haired folk often get confused for lionesses but that's ok...big hair, big roar :)

Marina said...

Ok so I came home and washed the doo and I'm letting it air dry out for curl... Put a smidge of Moroccan Oil in it and that's that. I plan on curling in the morning when it's at it's full lioness potential. Do you use a blow dryer or diffuser? Need full scope of what I should be doing!

Unknown said...

You're so cute:) Sometimes I miss my long hair, but I was always a hot roller kind of a curler instead of a curling iron.

Faith said...

So I think you are absolute perfection! And that hair, I want it!!

Discovery Street said...

I have about 1/10 of the amount of hair you have. I love it. and you're super cute. loved your vlog :)

Melody said...
