Five Minute Curls

I have A LOT of hair. I also love having my hair curly... but it takes me forever. Or at least it used to. I would clip it up and curl it one thin layer at a time. It turned out nice, but took like 45 minutes to do my whole head.

I needed a faster way to curl my hair.

This is my new, 5 minute style:

1. Divide hair into 5 scrunchies. Place scrunchies near the part and tight to the scalp.

• You might only need to or three... I just have an ungodly amount of hair. I like to use scrunchies because they don't leave a kink like a regular hair tie would. 

2. Split each of the scrunchies of hair into two equal sections and curl each of those sections, moving from the back of the head to the front.

• I make one of the curls in each of the scrunchies a little tighter and one a little looser to give the curls a more natural look. For more volume you can alternate the direction of the curl as well. You can do this with a wand or a straightener. 

3. Carefully remove scrunchies.

4. Spray dry shampoo at the roots of your hair for volume and to extend the style.

5. Shake out curls and separate with fingers.

6. Smooth your flyaways with a finishing spray.

• The one I use by usmooth is amazing for keeping down those little hairs that stick up around your part. 

Here's a (slightly embarrassing) before and after pic. I really hope this lasts me though the week. If not, at least it's super quick and easy! This style only took me five minutes total... the makeup is a different story. 💁
