Candy Striper

My curls here are the result of "No Heat Curls", which I first discovered at Tulle & Trinkets. She did hers a little different because she just wanted soft waves. I put my mostly dry hair pretty tightly around a headband and slept in it over night. I was surprised how well it held up, and how non-uncomfortable it was to sleep on!

The curls came out tighter than I intended in the front, and a lot looser in the back, but I think the end result actually looks pretty natural. They certainly don't look like curling iron curls, and the inconsistency/frizz mimics how naturally curly hair acts.

I'll probably try it again, but with a thicker headband next time.

P.S. This is a classic Shop Your Own Closet moment here. You've seen all these pieces before, just not paired together.
