Curling my Hair

I have had quite a few people ask me how I curl my hair.  I've curled my hair since forever it seems.  My freshman year in college I even permed my hair to assist in the ease of curling.  True story.  I actually would ask girls all the time how they curled their hair.  I've even asked strangers at the mall when I like their curls.  Anyway, after trying almost every method out there, with the invention of Pinterest I finally found a few tutorials that I like.  You've probably seen her blog The Small Things, pinned hundreds of times on there, because she's amazing at explaining every little detail for us hair dummies.  In fact, I love all of Kate's hair tutorials, but I use two methods in particular when I curl my hair.  The wrap around method and the curl from the top down method.  Keep in mind the cut of your hair will make a difference in the final outcome.  I have long layers cut into my hair for the exact reason that I wear my hair curly probably 90% of the time.  The prep work I do to my hair includes the following: I wash and condition using Pureology volume shampoo and conditioner.  After the shower, I towel dry and use a leave in conditioner.  I'm currently using It's a 10, but I also like Big Sexy Hair's leave in conditioner spray.  I then took Kate's advice, to use Aquague uplifting foam, best product I've ever used for volume. I wish salons carried it in SLC, but I can only find it on Amazon. Then I blow dry and curl.
happy curling,
Tara
