Here is what you need:
Hair
A headband
Optional:
Mousse
Hairspray
Water
Step One:
Brush your hair completely dried hair out. Part it to your normal side. (Or if you are like me, brush it the opposite way, because one side curls better than the other ;).)
Step Two: (This is optional.)
Run your hands under some water. You don't want them dripping but just wet. Then run your hands through your hair, getting it damp. Once you hair is barely damp, add a little bit of mousse to the dampened hair.
Step Three:
Get your headband ready.
Check!
Put your headband on like this...
Step Four:
Grab a little section of hair from the front. I start with the side that has my bangs. Take the section you picked up, and circle it over the headband and through, letting it drop. It should look like this if you're lost.
Step Five:
Pick up the section you just curled around your headband. Then, add another little section to it, loop it up and around the headband just like you did with the first piece. Here's what it looks like.
Step Six:
Keep doing the exact same thing, just adding a little section of hair at a time.
Step Seven:
You guessed it, keep doing the same thing. UNTIL you get a little bit behind your ear. Then stop.
Step Eight:
It's time to start the other side. Just like you did with the first side, pick up a small section of hair and loop it up and around the headband. Once again it will be like this.
Step Nine:
You guessed it, add another small section and loop it up and around the headband.
Step 10:
Yep that's right, keep going until you've reached just behind your ear.
At this point, here's what your hair should look like all the way around. :)
Step Eleven:
Now that you are at the back of your head, this is where it gets awkward to do. You don't do anything differently. Stay focused on one side of your hair. You do the exact same thing as you've done the whole time. Keep wrapping until one side is completely wrapped. Then move on to the other side and do the same thing. Make sure that all of your hair is wrapped around the headband.
Yes, the back looks a little messy, but it will be okay. It's hard to make it look neat, but if you take your time it can look better.
So all your hair is wrapped and it looks like this
Step Twelve: (optional)
spray your hair with hairspray, you don't need to cake it on, just a little will do.
Step Thirteen:
The easy part, go to sleep! Or if you did yours neatly, you could wear it like that during the day. Either way leave it in this for a while. I'd suggest a few hours, or if your hair is like mine leave it over night (8 to 9 hours).
Step Fourteen:
Take your hair out of the headband. Be careful doing this, because your hair will be stuck, so just go slow don't rush it. I start with the back because its easier.
Step Fifteen:
After you have taken the curls off of the headband and remove the headband. Spray your curls with hairspray. You can wear your hair like that or style it differently. Here are some looks that I tried. These were all done without heat and without teasing. Enjoy.
You could also brush out your curls a little if they are too tight. :)
So here is the look, and how to do it. If you have any questions about it, just ask me. I tried to do it pretty detailed. It's super easy! It only takes like five minutes to do. I hope you enjoy it!
P.S. I got this idea from Pinterest. So, this isn't mine.
