F/U to hair advice (PIP)

Thanks for all the hair advice from Friday!  I ended up buying some hot rollers to use.  I put some mousse through my hair before rolling, and then sprayed the heck out of it after, haha.  :o)  I wore it down and curly (I couldn't really figure out how to tame it into a ponytail/bun/half-up do).  The first pic is from the beginning of the night, and the second pic is later on.  It looks kinda frizzy in the second, but I thought it actually held up fairly well throughout the night all things considered. 

(edited to make pics a little smaller)

  • Wow great dress!

    Your hair looks great - I'm jealous!  What hot rollers did you use?  Do you have thick hair?  I'd love to curl my hair but it's so thick I usually fail!

    I got these from Target.  I thought they worked decently, but would probably be even better on shorter hair (by the time I wrapped my hair around, it was pretty thick on the roller, and the top part of my hair didn't curl as well).  I actually ran out of rollers and had to finish the last bit with a curling iron, as well as re-curl some strands.  I would say my hair is "normal" thickness.....not thick, not thin.

    And thank you for the compliments!

    I've been eying those rollers so thanks for the review.  I have a ton o' hair.  My stylist has told me if I want to be successful with rollers that I'll have to have two sets.  haha.

    Yeah, I would absolutely agree with that (or curl half your head and then the other half after).  It would have worked out even better if I could have used twice as many rollers with smaller sections of hair.  But I don't know where I'm going to store one set of rollers, let alone two!  :o)

  • You look great Mara!  Love the dress!
