Curlformers Set

Happy New Year fam!

I wanted to try something new, so I tried out my new Curlformers for New Years Eve. I know… I know… I always say never try new styles when you actually have somewhere to go, but… *shrugs*

I pre-poo’d, washed and deep conditioned my hair. I applied leave in and extra virgin olive oil to my hair and set my hair with the Curlformers.

I previously watched a video or two on YouTube to see how to operate these weird Curlformers, so I pretty much knew what to expect. The application was easy. I mentally sectioned my hair to use all 40 Curlformers and that’s exactly how it worked out.

It took me about 1 hour to put all of them in, although it didn’t seem that long at all. I sat under the dryer for about an hour because I had to go out to celebrate the new year, so there was no time to let it air dry. I can’t even imagine how people sleep in them! I value my sleep too much to have uncomfortable sleep.

When I took the Curlformers out, the results were phenomenal! I’m pleased. It wasn’t until after I set my hair that I realized that I didn’t apply any products with hold. Tsk! My hair came out super soft though. I’d definitely use these again.

As far as sleeping goes, pineappling never worked for me, so I put on my satin bonnet and we’ll see what tomorrow brings. *fingers crossed*

How exciting is that?! I had no idea which size to select, so I hit up Shelli from Hairscapades. She suggested getting the extra long and wide so that as my hair grows I will still be able to use it. Great idea!

I received them in the mail this week and I thought maybe I should test them out for Christmas, but I had already planned to straighten my hair for Christmas. Decisions. Decisions.

I love giveaways! I plan to do one of my own in the near future! Look out for that!

XOXO,
