Trials and Tribulations of Curly Hair

{Google}

Would you believe me if I told you that in middle school I styled my hair with a bucket o' gel from the good old dollar store? Thankfully I've come a long way from those awesome middle school years filled with braces and "barrel bangs,"but I still haven't found the perfect hair product combination.

I currently use Dove shampoo and conditioner and also styling cream but I'm not 100% happy with the look still. I have naturally curly hair, but like to use a curling iron to define the curls. Please feel free to share any advice you have for fine curly air products or tools!

Sock Hair Bun

 {Supplies needed: hairspray, comb, old trouser sock with tip of the toes cut off 

and rolled like a donut, bobby pins, and hair tie}

{Start by putting your hair in a ponytail in the same place you'll want your bun}

 {Feed your hair through the center of the "sock donut" and bring it almost to the end of your hair}

{Start rolling your hair with the sock, tucking in any loose hairs as you go}

{The bun is all the way "rolled" and now you just need hairspray and sometimes bobby pins}

{Finished sock bun}

This is my go-to hairstyle for those less than clean hair days, and even better it only takes a few things and a few minutes.  I find that it's perfect for day or night, especially when you add your favorite lipstick.  So go find  a pony tail and an old sock and start coiffing your hair.
