The Messyish ADORABLE Curl!

Everyone is always looking for new ways to curl their hair. I'm always looking on youtube and honestly, there are so many different ways to curl your hair, I'm just going to post about them separately. The first one I'm going to do is so cute and so successful, like 99% of the time, that you have to be crazy not to try it. It's different from the normal, curling iron way, and different from the beachy, Taylor Swift way. Its kind of a mix of both, and it gives you more of a new, unique look, so you don't have to look like everyone else who curls their hair. Plus it's messy in the cutest way. Without further ado:

First, get your hair wet. Probably after your nightly shower. It's really important that it's at night. Night's best because you sleep on it and it drys overnight. I tried wetting it in the day and taking it out later, but it still didn't dry completely, and that's SUPER important. So trust me, just do it before you go to sleep and then sleep on it. After your shower, braid your hair. It could be a side braid, two braids, a French braid, or a Katniss braid. But not a bunch of little ones, because you don't want your hair to be bushy with curl, just wavy. Any of the ways work, because its gonna be the under layer anyways. I just put mine in a simple side braid (make sure you do it when it's wet) :


Sleep (zzzzzz) on it. Its okay if it's messy in the morning. Now take it out. It should just have a little wave, like this (DON'T BRUSH IT): 


Now take a strand from the upper layer of your hair, right in the middle of your head:


Clamp it in the curling iron. Don't just wrap your hair around it without using the clamper thingy. That's what I usually do, but for this, its important to do the clamper:


Now wrap it up as far as you can take it with burning your skin off:


It'll look something like this over the braid curls:


Now run your hands through it to separate the curl and brake it up a bit: 


Then each curl will look like a perfect little strand ;) :


Now do a curl towards the back, exactly the same way:


And then one towards the front:


Now you're done with that side. Move on to the other side and do the exact same thing, with one curl in the middle, one in the front, and one in the back, just using the upper layer. The curls will be kind of big, like this:


So make sure to run your fingers through each one to spread them across your head. When you've done the three curls on that side, carefully run a brush through the top of your hair down to that point:


This is so it cams down the flyways and static from bed. You won't notice on the bottom because obviously, its in curls, but you might want to do this real quick on top.


And... Voila! The finished, adorable look! Isn't it cute! It has the over-layer of curls with the wave from the braid underneath! This look is like my new favorite! Me and Ella both love it. We found it online and then both showed up at church the next day wearing it! Haha it was really funny! Have fun with it!
