How to curl your hair with socks!

**WARNING**  some hideous pictures of me are about to be seen....you have been warned....


Now that you have been read the disclaimer - let's curl some hair! (BIG thank you to my husband for helping me document!)

First - I started with damp hair.  It may look like my hair would curl on its own - but don't be fooled.  Left to its own ways it turns into a giant poof.  One thing I learned from doing this a few times - don't leave your hair too damp.  Mine worked better when it was dry all the way first and I ran a wet brush through it a few times.  When it was too damp it didn't dry well.

All three sections of hair are done the same way.  The first section is at the crown.  Take a circle of hair from the crown and pull it up for your first sock. 

Place your sock underneath - preferably a clean on. 

Start to twist the ends around the sock.  Make sure to get all the way to the end as if you were using a curling iron. 

Twist. 

Keep twisting down till you get to your head. 

Tie the sock in a knot. 

First sock down! (ahh this is the worst picture ever!!!) It doesn't have to be neat. 

Separate the rest of your hair like you are making two pony tails.

Do the same thing as the top sock - place the sock under your hair and roll your hair around the sock. 

Tie the sock in a knot when you reach your ear.  

Repeat on the other side.  (notice all of my socks are different!)

Done! Now go to sleep....

In the morning.....

Untwist the socks. 

Repeat on the other side and top sock, 

Tadaa! 

Curly hair.  :)
