Sock Curls

Last night my daughter and I was talking about during her hair for her Birthday which is also picture day at her school. She wants me to braid her hair in 4 or 5 big braids and then go over it with a flat iron. I seen this on Pinterest and wow .. it was so pretty! Since she was going to take a shower, I couldn't because her hair would be wet. I asked if she wanted me to try to sock roll her hair. Which I never did/tried before,  but I watched a video on you tube (see below). So I did and I thought I would try it too on my hair lol I rolled her hair with two pairs of socks just like the video below but her hair was wet ... And then I rolled mine with 5 socks but my hair was dry and I sprayed it like they did in the video. I rolled mine in a spirl motion (vertical) and switched between rolling towards my face and away from my face. My daughters hair turned out really pretty ... but it was still wet, not damp but wet. But it was still pretty. It gave her huge waves in her hair. Mine on one side fell out while I was sleeping lol and the other side was so curly .. So it's in a ponytail looking like .. well .. you know :O| lol Mind was really hard to roll because my hair is in layers. I think it would be best to do it on damp hair, not totally wet like my daughters was and not just misted like mine was. So I am going to try it like that next time!

Chalk Streak Highlights

I've seen girls with pretty colorful streaks in their hair and ran across a video a few weeks ago and figured thats how they are doing it! I never tried this but I do want to! I think it's a really cute idea....and it's temporary, which is great and it's harmless to your hair. If I ever try it I'll post a pic to show yas. I have blonde hair so it should be bolder/brighter on me ... I hope ;)



I recommend sweeping the chalk in a downwards motion, not back and forth like they did in this video. Also make sure the chalk you use isn't oil based. You can do the ends like they did .. or just a few streaks on the one side of your head or maybe just a few streaks in your bangs/fringe. You can try 3 different colored strps and then braid them ... Just be creative :)
