I asked a few weeks ago how to get my hair too look like this:


I found this video on YouTube about curling your hair with a flat iron. Becky recommended it.

I've been practicing for a while now and I think this is the greatest thing I've ever learned! Here's how I wore it today:




I've gotten so many compliments and it's so easy to do. It barely takes 10 minutes in the morning.

I've heard of this elusive "curling with a flat iron" concept but I never imagined it could look so good! Your hair looks fantastic, and that's great that it doesn't take much time.

Rachel, your hair looks so good like that! I'm glad my tip worked out for you-I wish I had your hair!!

Pretty! I may have to give this a go sometime!

Looks great! I'll have to try it, my hair is sooo long right now, I'm thinking it might look kinda cool.

I love it!! I still can't get a hang on curling with the flat iron, but I'm thinking maybe cuz my hair isn't long enough. I love curls like that.

I love curling my hair with a flat iron. I actually like to iron the bottom half of my hair (from tops of ears down) straight, then curl the top half and tug the bottoms of the curls before they cool to loosen them up a bit. It's a sexy, tousled casual look.

Oh that is so pretty! DecemberBelle's idea sounds nice too! I just might try this idea tonight for going out!
