After I moisterize I wrap all of my hair clockwise in a beehive and secure it w/ pins. Then I wrap it in a silk scarf. But sometimes wrapping doesn't work well 4 me. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning all of my hair is on one side  and it looks crazy! So I'm thinking about just using those soft rollers and put three in the middle/back of my head to get the same affect. I read that someone did that (don't know if it was on this site or not) and they never wrap their hair again and it's slightly curled and easily bounces w/ body  ------------- 1 more day until next touch-up 5 more months until bra-strap length |

Thank you so much. I had an idea of what
to do but I wanted to make sure I was doing it right. Usually you would
see others who have perms and they would say they wrapped their hair
the night before. To me what I find irritating and fustrating is
unwrapping it. I normally try to comb it down and the right side always
looks better then the left side. Am I doing something wrong?

No, I don't think ur doing anything wrong actually. I'm like u - when I unwrap my hair the right side looks better than the left side also. I think it depends on which direction u wrap it - either clockwise or counterclockwise. I think ur supposed 2 wrap it according 2 which side ur hair looks best parted. Sorry if I'm confusing . Maybe someone else can help! ------------- 1 more day until next touch-up 5 more months until bra-strap length |

| You didn't confuse me. I just needed another person's point of view of what they do. Thanks for your help though. |
