Many of you have been asking about this little wave I’ve been rockin’ lately.
While it may not be the way most of our locks naturally flow, it’s actually a quite easy look to achieve.
What you’ll need:
What to do:
1. Start by blow drying your hair, making sure it’s completely dry.
2. Heat curling iron to the highest temperature.
3. Take about 1-inch chunks of your hair, and wrap hair around the outside of the curling iron (NOT opening the clasp). Hold for 10-20 seconds, depending on how well your hair usually holds curls. Continue until all of your hair is curled.
4. Spray your whole head with flexible-hold hairspray, but make sure not to use too much! You want your hair to remain soft and flowy – not crunchy looking.
5. If you’re like me and your hair doesn’t do a great job with holding curls, you can seal the deal by putting it up in a ballerina bun with Goody spin pins. Then when you’re ready to rock it, take the pins out and your hair will have an extra “oomph” of wave.

How do you usually wear your hair?
Which celebrity’s hair do you wish you had? (I’ll take Blake Lively’s, please&thankyou)
I wish I had Carrie Underwood’s hair (and legs while we’re wishing away…)!
I have naturally curly/wavy hair but I usually blow dry it straight. Especially because it’s colder out now, I just hate having wet hair. If I could have anyone’s hair it would be Sofia Vergara. I swear Modern Family is like hair porn for me, lol.
I usually just flat iron it straight, but if I decide to go curly I use my curling wand (awesome) or hot rollers if I want extra body. And I don’t want a celebrity’s hair so much as I want their hair stylists!
I wear my hair straight most of the time, but have no problem putting it up in messy buns, braiding it, or curling it. I’d definitely want Kim Kardashian’s hair.
I love curling my hair like that! My hair is naturally wavy/curly but I always touch it up with an iron to make it extra curly. I never use the clasp either!
Thank you for the hair tutorial! I’ve been wanting to try my hair like that and now I know how to do it! I’m intrigued by the spin pins too!
Ooooh, love that look!

that looks so good on you!
I’ve tried using those spin pins but they don’t work for me. Perhaps mine is too thick and heavy…hm…! I would love to have Sophia Vergara’s hair too. And her boobs!
really?? yeah, my hair is on the thinner side so maybe that’s why…?
I love those pins! I have my hair up in them right now
was hesitant since they’re 7 bucks and I figured I’d lose them in like a day, but a couple months have passed and I amazingly still have them, woo hoo!

Hey Gracie! I came across these tonight while puttsn’ around on pinterest. I remembered how much you liked cake-batter goodies…thought I’d pass on the goodness. Love ya girl! http://chef-n-training.blogspot.com/2011/10/cake-batter-pudding-cookies.html
I looove this look! It’s relaxed while still being cute and professional.
My hair doesn’t usually hold curl very well either, so I tend to just leave it natural (straight). But, I’ve been craving a change lately! I’ll definitely be trying your technique.
Im going to try! 😉
YOU’RE THE BEST.
