~ Hair To's ~ Big Curls with Tiny Buns

Use a small barrel curling iron {in this fashion} on stray pieces. Watch this very old video of me creating my bantu knots… You would think that …uh, I dunno, I’d put on some make-up and maybe . … uhhh, something cute ..at least a bra – before I did one of these …lol. Summer Hair DIY. Sometimes I feel like I spend Summer trying to figure how out to save my hair from the humidity.

Summer Hair DIY

Here's a style that pretty much kicks humidity's keester. **First, separate the front part of your hair into one section and pin a piece of lace or ribbon right behind it. Using the lace as one of your strands, braid the front of your hair and pin behind your ear. **Take the remaining ribbon and wrap it around your head, and then again half-way. Stop at the back and tie it up. **After the lace is secured, separate the remaining hair into 2 sections. This style is so great for humid days, dirty hair days (wink, wink), or just any old day you feel like wearing your hair up. Xoxo Katie. How to wash your hair – 10 tips for great hair.

Fantastic Easy Hairstyle for the DIY Bride/Bridesmaid {Sunday Beauty School}

Being a straight and rather flat haired girl myself, I have tried every which way to bring a little bit of curl into my life with limited success. I’ve bought heated round brushes, velcro rollers, curling tongs in various shapes and sizes, those foam bendy things, rags (Victorian chic don’t you know) and heated rollers.

I redid it before heading out and it looked much better, so make sure you use a mirror! For full instructions, keep reading after the jump. What you need: dry shampoo or volumizing product (like the Sachajuan volume powder I often use) bobby pins.
