A few people have asked me, so here are the instructions. It's really very easy. This was the first time I tried this style and I was very surprised at how well it turned out.
Things you'll need:
1.Rollers(I used my carusos to get the curls, but I think magnetic would be fine, too. Just make sure the rollers are small enough to create curls, and not loose waves.)
2.Long elastic headband (Like a regular elastic ponytail holder but the loonnnnnng ones. Not the wide bandanna like headbands.)
3.Bobbypins (I suppose the little hairpins are fine, but I use the long ones that people use on their rollers.)
How to:
1. Rollerset your hair. It doesn't have to be even, just make sure you use enough rollers to make curls, not a body wave. I used Caruso for this part and I slept in them overnight, which for all practical purposes is a big no-no because foam rollers are very drying. If you have Carusos, you can leave them in as long as it takes to make the curls. For magnetic roller users, I suggest you use a spray before you roll to make the curl last a bit longer. Maybe like a setting lotion.
2.After your hair is dry and the curls are formed, lightly run your hands through the roots, than put the long elastic headband on, being careful not to ruffle the curls too much.
3. Once the headband is placed take the curls and pin them upward randomly until you have an updo. Make sure to use enough bobby pins that all you hair is secured. You generally have to use quite a few because the curls aren't held up by anything except the pins.
4.Voila! Quick, easy, pretty updo.
See ya'll? I told you it was easy.
