I think it looked good. I want to try this out but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Yup! I first posted about it here:

And kind of buried the reason why the sock didn't work so well for me in this post:

Unfortunately, the sock isn't so good for those of us with long layers. I tried using a couple of socks, and it helped with the rolling, but I couldn't get it to stay in my hair.

Thanks Kat! 😀

Have you heard of using a sock? I actually just watched this video the other day. It's a way to make sock bun curls.

This video shows how to make the curls… but make sure to watch the other video she links, it shows you how to actually put the sock in your hair… she doesn't describe it very well in this video.

hahah thanks for sharing! How about tightly twisted buns held in place with either elastic or goody's spin pins? After a day up in ONE bun my pin-straight asian hair has the most amazing curl. More buns should give it a smaller more dynamic curl. =)

Rag rollers. Just tear an old dish towel into strips and roll chunks of hair into it, then tie the ends of the strip. They don't poke you like pin curls do, and you can tie them as high or as low as you want, depending on how high or low you want your curls to start.

Aw I'm sad it didn't work out!

Kindness is the best accessory,

In the first shot I think you look like a super heroine without the rest of the costume.

Oh, this was beyond high volume hair. It was about 3x the kind of high volume that we all want!

When I was young and had long hair, I used Dippy Doo (I think that is what the green gunk was called) and wrapped my hair in 2 inch curlers–all over my head. To make it easier to sleep on all these curlers, I pulled the brushes out after rolling my hair. In the morning I had a nice tight curl that laid around my shoulders. Even gym class didn't mess this style. Hopefully, Dippy Doo and 2 inch brush rollers are no longer available, because women became smarter and stopped torturing themselves like I did.
