Does anybody know how to make your hair to look curly like the one in this picture?  I would really appreciate it if any of you show me how to do it.  Thanks a lot

Large rollers or a very large barrelled curling iron.

If you don't have rollers you can try soup cans or pop cans.

Wet your hair, wrap around a can and use some sort of clip to hold it in place.

let it completely dry.

I don't know how long it will last but you'll get something like that.

You might want to make sure the soup can doesn't have a label and get all the glue off it.

thank you for your help.  When you say "wrap" you mean wrap it vertically around the curling iron or can right?  now twirl the hair up like you normally use when you curl the hair?

I'd say use whatever technique you can do.

I read a magazine article recently that said to put the roller or iron at the halfway point of the strand, twist the roller down from there and then wrap the ends around the roller. Kinda hard to explain.

The way you describe it sounds like it would work.

The way we would do it in school was put the roller at the ends and then just roll down.

For irons we would put the iron just a bit above the scalp and then through clicking the lever and turning you would feed the hair into the iron like a typewriter. But that might be hard to do on yourself.

I use big hot rollers to get that look.  It works great.  Or a jumbo wave curling iron.  Hope it works out
