Beauty Thread: Hair ~ Curly/Wavy Edition

[Catnip]

Hello, hair experts and hair noobies~ This is a thread for those who need beauty advice and those who can give it.

LET'S START WITH MY POST, SHALL WE?

So, I've always wanted my hair to do this, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. I was told to triple barrel, but I manage to even make that look like shit.

See, I like how natural and calm it looks. There's no hard curls or waves, and it blends in nicely. I also love the volume. I don't know what to do to get it like this unless I braid it, but that would require me braiding my whole head and waiting a while for my hair to shape that way. There's got to be an easier way lol.



My hair is shorter than this. I'd say about an inch past my collar bone. When I went to my hair dresser to get it cut, he told me that I guess I lack protein, so my hair can be kind of fuzzy at times. I don't know how to deal with that either.

I have no idea how you'd go about getting it to be curly/wavy like that - my hair is naturally curly when it's long, and it goes wavy if I comb it out, so for me it's just make it wet and get a comb out - but I find anti-static spray stops it from going fuzzy, as long as you're not going out in the rain, which case it'll probably explode if it's anything like mine.

I don't know about protein or anything like that, but the thickness of your hair might have something to do with it as well.

Shit.

I have such thin hair. I don't know, this is a hard one. I've turned to a few places on the internet and nobody really knows how. It's always the same answer: triple barrel it, even after I mentioned how I don't have one, and if that really is the only way, then how can I get it like this but nope. Ah

I can't help you there either, I gave up on doing anything with my hair. My hair is thin as well, it wasn't always like that, but it's also VERY friggin straight. So even when I used to try and get it curly, the curls would just fall out after an hour or two and it was back to straight as ever. -.- It's a good thing I'm not a fan of curly/wavy hair I guess, or else I'd be screwed trying.
