A head full of big, soft curls is a great option for women who sometimes become bored with long, straight hair and are looking for a change. A curly hairstyle is easy to do with a set of hot rollers and a comb. The result is a romantic, feminine look.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Moisturizing shampoo
  • Conditioner
  • Hairspray
  • Firm hair gel or styling mousse
  • Large hot rollers and pins
  • Rat tail comb
  1. Step 1

    Begin by washing the hair with a good moisturizing shampoo, followed by a body-building conditioner. Towel dry the hair gently with soft, fluffy towel.

  2. Step 2

    Apply firm hair gel or styling mousse completely through the hair while it's still slightly damp. Be sure to coat all of the hair, from the scalp to the ends.

  3. Step 3

    Divide the hair into three equal sections, and clip two of the sections up and out of the way.

  4. Step 4

    Place a hot roller about 2 inches above the end of the separated section and wrap it around the hot roller until all of the hair is wrapped on the roller, keeping the hair smooth as you work.

  5. Step 5

    Continue separating and rolling the divided section hair until all of the hair is on rollers, and then repeat with the remaining two sections.

  6. Step 6

    Leave the rollers in the hair at least until they cool, and then remove them carefully and arrange the curls carefully with your fingers. Don't use a hairbrush, because brushing will remove the curl.

  7. Step 7

    Mist the curls lightly with hairspray to prolong the curls and control frizzies.
