So I have tried braids, sea salt sprays, and almost everything else! I really want the carefree waves but nothing is working. It always turns out like the picture. And when I curl my hair it turns out like a big spiral. Does anyone know of a better way to achieve this look?

Oh and sorry that this is a bad picture, but it was the only one I took before I gave in and straightened my hair:).

@Leona J. Thank you!

@Amber M. I'm glad I'm not the only one! It seems like whenever I try something it looks great on everyone else, but I jut can't manage to get it to look right!

I got my hair like this by when I get outta the shower I scrunch it and put it mousse and keep scrunching and use a diffuser to dry it while still scrunching. And then I just curl it with a normal curling iron(curl around the clip if there is one) and brush it with my fingers. :) hope it helped

2 ways.

You can either put your slightly damp hair in a bun and sleep on it (or if you're impatient, you can blow dry it while twisting it) then run a texturizing balm/cream through it in the morning...

OR

You can hold a 1" curling iron upside down, open the clip and then wrap your hair around the barrel, making sure that there is space between the pieces and you leave about an inch or so at the end out (do not close the clip. you're holding it open to avoid crimps). hold it that way for about 20 seconds, then release into the palm of your hand. Let the curl cool in your palm for another 15 seconds, spray with a bit of hairspray and move on to the next section.

Do you get your hair wet before you braid it?
