i have naturally curly hair that i usually straighten. however, i'm getting tired of torturing it and want to wear it curly. the problem is: i really don't know how to make it look good. i want it to have volume and pretty, loose curls. like taylor swift.
any suggestions?Naturally curly hair styling question?
Her hair takes just as much styling work as you straightening your hair! It's great that you are looking at keeping it curly though! I recently did this too, and it feels go good to not worry about if my hair gets wet and starts to bump up in the back.
Look at http://www.naturallycurly.com/
The first step it to find out what kind of curls you have, so that you know how to care for them.
Then invest in a good conditioner to repair your hair from all of the straightening, and a curling iron to define some of your curls when you want to look your best. You will also benifit from having a root booster spray and a blow dryer with a defuser head.
I hope this helps! Way to embrace your curls!Naturally curly hair styling question?
i know what you mean i have curly hair too, and to achieve taylor swift`s look you can go to any walmart store or sally hasen store and purchase rollers,the small kind to get your hair alll loosely curled or you can go to sally`s beauty store and buy curlformers its a salon kit that gives you those sexy ringlet curls. you should also buy a hair diffuser to give you volume and curls as well , without the frizz! OH!! to learn how to use the curlformers go to youtube.com and in the search box type in ';HOW TO USE CURLFORMERS'; and it will give you a whole bunch of videos showing you how to use these rollers!
I really believe that curly hair is coming back into style. Go to an experienced stylist who remembers how to cut and style curly hair. You'll probably have to wear it a lot shorter, since length weighs down waves and curls.
With a really good haircut, and a full-round natural-bristle brush, you'll almost certainly be able to brush your hair into a pretty, feathery style without any extra aids at all.
Try this technique

although you already have curly hair, this will help style those curls.
If you want big curls, like Taylor Swift, roll loose. Do it over night for the best results, before rolling apply a styling product, like a hair mousse or gel, then roll. sleep with the curls in place, for more volume.
This technique really is great!
It works well and you'll be happy with the results.
If at first it doesn't seem right, try again.
keep those rolls loose though!
best of luck!
I have naturally curly hair too, and sometimes I will wash it and dry it, then go over my natural curls with a curling iron. It makes them looser and they look a lot better. It doesn't take that long either.
