Making Waves out of Curls

[glamadelic]

Okay, I've search for tuts or tips or anything on this but to no avail. I have medium-thick curly hair. I really would like to "stretch" my curls out into soft waves, but I don't know how. I would love to have loose waves, so I was hoping that I could find some help here. Thanks! =)

Brading at night works for me and i saw it on E! this hairstylst said the easiest way is to braid it over night.

I would like to know too but I have straight hair. Whenever I braid my hair, it just looks ugly.

you could blow dry your hair straight to create a smooth surface then use a large barrel curling iron to create waves and use hairspray or pomade to set.

I thought of that, but that's what I wanted to avoid. I wish there was just some product you could apply to hair while wet and let airy dry for soft, loose, sexy curls! But I guess that would be too easy. =(

it would be too easy its not going to magically become wavy. Try to get some extensions, thats what most celebs have anyway. lol

I know it wont magically become wavy. I was just hoping there was an easier way than blow drying it straight and then using a curling iron to add waves back in. That seems like an oxymoron to me.

Oh! My friend likes to use this:

Sephora: Frederic Fekkai Wave Creating Spray: Styling Products

She sprays in it her hair and puts it up in a bun for a while and when she lets it down, it's nice and wavy. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

get some large rollers and gel, roll your hair when its wet that should reshape your curls.

That's something I always try to do! I somtimes braid it but it doesn't turn out nice at all. Everyone gave really good tips, I'm going to try these out!
