heat free hair: soft, easy waves

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">Having fine, flat hair and not using heat is normally a complete disaster and my hair is very difficult to work with when I do absolutely nothing to it. Consequently, I have developed a range of different methods of styling my hair using the technique of leaving damp hair to dry into a style. There are a million different ways I use to create waves and volume in my hair, which I have posted about <a href="http://beautylishious.blogspot.com/2011/05/heat-free-hair-rollers.html">here</a> and <a href="http://beautylishious.blogspot.com/2010/06/how-to-messy-beach-hair.html">here</a> <em>(queue completely cringey-old post!)</em> but this method is the one that I am liking at the moment: </span></div><span style="color: #666666;"></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip5EhD7NKrHdXC4eOZmg1uYhp7yRXH8kOU5BOs4i1UtE6Lm8Q2idH9KEaGaox9nc9qojReSLRRK0YK-6UTE98C8D_eLOLxPguXaxv8tWnkbCMTLIf23kCQmfRIN7rZrPEN6gO5Hg_lLtdR/s1600/CIMG1186.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip5EhD7NKrHdXC4eOZmg1uYhp7yRXH8kOU5BOs4i1UtE6Lm8Q2idH9KEaGaox9nc9qojReSLRRK0YK-6UTE98C8D_eLOLxPguXaxv8tWnkbCMTLIf23kCQmfRIN7rZrPEN6gO5Hg_lLtdR/s640/CIMG1186.JPG" t8="true" width="568" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span style="color: #666666;"></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">After washing and towel drying my hair until its about 80% dry I scrunch in some volumising mousse (I use the Avon one) and plonk all my hair onto the top of my hair into a messy bun and leave it to dry overnight.</span></div><span style="color: #666666;"></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqF2cxdU5oe1BeSL3DWEPMYFHBgaZH4Z_8Vm6tZnEgjGKOP4Sp8pqON0T0Aemd1ZtuGrihUtCi3MEfUmL1H63-R7gfK-MQKnekvu1PbK2MGdnd79ie_PEFPRfwb6Ix7P5OSJsLqZEuayBm/s1600/CIMG1191.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqF2cxdU5oe1BeSL3DWEPMYFHBgaZH4Z_8Vm6tZnEgjGKOP4Sp8pqON0T0Aemd1ZtuGrihUtCi3MEfUmL1H63-R7gfK-MQKnekvu1PbK2MGdnd79ie_PEFPRfwb6Ix7P5OSJsLqZEuayBm/s640/CIMG1191.JPG" t8="true" width="574" /></span></a></div><span style="color: #666666;"></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Y7ksw-YP2LVeA97YitwfpWDUrgp2BuV5MeXGGybJ6FNCX3IQyGoYlFyChVC7xuB9HkTaqzCQzuhugZNVra3lb10Q8t4AYGHjP6ChFrm0PokZaINu7FFrdkTwq51z9iQ3hwYnG_7em50e/s1600/CIMG1193.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5Y7ksw-YP2LVeA97YitwfpWDUrgp2BuV5MeXGGybJ6FNCX3IQyGoYlFyChVC7xuB9HkTaqzCQzuhugZNVra3lb10Q8t4AYGHjP6ChFrm0PokZaINu7FFrdkTwq51z9iQ3hwYnG_7em50e/s640/CIMG1193.JPG" t8="true" width="604" /></span></a></div><span style="color: #666666;"></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">In the morning when taking out said 'messy bun' I am left with completely uncontrollable, scary-mary hair.

They were inserted into natural, dry hair, and in Sophie's very thick hair we used about 17 rollers, but if you have thinner/fine hair you may need a lot less. The best method of application I find is to start at the front and go down the middle and then apply to the sides, using about 2 inch sections for each roller. Leave for about 1 to 2 hours (longer for more effect) and if your feeling a bit naughty blast with a hair dryer <em>(not that I'm encouraging breaking your heat ban, but if you do, use a heat protectant ;)</em> and uncurl the rollers slowly from the hair so you don't lose volume. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;"><span style="font-size: large;"><em>Et voila...</em></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiODGxSgwmTCeWz1IEEdepZ5vsVZfF_iMwZzk2XZAiTSAgErM8Sa6alGrjnlVeKCvtqkfnpZr9b_tHH33MWzAvc3zHprSFimoLWzaa2bVmjWxJJQAqDTV2Gev489HtTcLa8yrj47pcg0X5y/s1600/CIMG0995.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiODGxSgwmTCeWz1IEEdepZ5vsVZfF_iMwZzk2XZAiTSAgErM8Sa6alGrjnlVeKCvtqkfnpZr9b_tHH33MWzAvc3zHprSFimoLWzaa2bVmjWxJJQAqDTV2Gev489HtTcLa8yrj47pcg0X5y/s640/CIMG0995.JPG" width="400" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">...and your left with <span style="font-size: large;">big</span> <em>voluminous</em> hair.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">Hope this helped in some way, and check back for more in the <em>heat free hair</em> series :)</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4894/siggiei.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/4894/siggiei.png" /></a></div>
