I haven't washed my hair since last Wednesday, but i am having the best hair day ever! My secret.. dirty hair!
 |
Day Five of wet Pin Curl Set |
Firstly, i did a rough wet pin curl set after i washed it on Wednesday. My hair wasn't soaking wet, but damp. I did it without a mirror, whilst watching TV. I didn't think i would work so i didn't put any setting lotion in it. But to my surprise it did! Here it it the next morning after i took out all the bobby pins and brushed it out.
 |
Day one, wet pin curl set |
I sprayed it with hair spray and took the dog for a walk. It was such a windy day, but my curls survived!
 |
Day one, wet pin curl set, after a windy walk |
That night i re-pinned my curls, a quick squirt of setting lotion mixed with water.
 |
Day two of wet pin curl set |
In the evening, i re-pinned them again, squirt of setting lotion and the hair net went on.
 |
Day three of wet pin curl set |
Day three was a wet and windy miserable day. I spent the day going round vintage shops with Rose Desire, my Burly friend. Then we went for lunch. Hair, sort of lasted the day, but looked a bit wind swept and frizzy.
 |
Day Four |
This might explain why my hair looks so good today. On Sunday, day four, i kept my hair in pin curls and the hair net all day. I had a steamy hot bath, which also might have added to my curls staying power.
 |
Day five, best hair EVER |
 |
Day five, best day ever |
With the help of my bottled buddies, dry shampoo, styling powder and hair spray. I have had the best hair day ever! Its a bugger that its a Monday and the only thing i did today was go into town, and havent had a chance to show it off to anyone who really appreciates vintage hair! Oh well i will learn for next time.... if i want good hair on a Saturday night, plan it five days in advance!
Here are the products i used;
, Got 2b, 2 sexy
, Got 2b Rock it dry shampoo
, Got 2b style powder , this gives volume to my quiff
Stay Set, setting lotion, mixed it with water and put it into a spray bottle
