Hi all--I've mainly been in lurkdom/crazy-with-lifedom, and I just don't have time to read every thread to answer my query. I am transitioning with small trims, and using Curlformers with the occasional assist from a Babyliss now and then. Because my hair is currently about 1 1/2-3 inches natural with varying lengths of straight ends (I think I have trimmed it down to about SL, but I refuse to straighten it to check at this point), I tend to have pretty cute curls wet-setting with a leave-in conditioner and Motions Foaming Wrap lotion, but my pin curls flatten out overnight, and sleeping with my hair loose on a satin pillowcase just leads to a hot mess--curly (if I'm lucky 
) roots, and straight ends, which means back to the curling iron or some kind of up-do (and I am not good at up-dos 
). So, ladies, what say you all? I'm not ready to chop off the full length, so that's not an option, although I am very much enjoying playing in my new growth instead of treating it as the enemy. TIA!
ETA: I am attempting a pineapple tonight, but I think I'm going to have to set the nape area because that's not happening in that section.
