how i miss curly hair & my first video

For years and years I permed by hair.  It was probably terrible for it and I know I made my poor hairdresser slave away for hours wrapping my tons and tons of hair in perming rods... oh the hours I spent, the money, the smell! But man was it worth it! I loved my curly hair!


I feel at home in curly hair! 


I think it suits me (and my beautiful sister of course).



 But alas... my hair dresser no longer does perms and the older I get the more brittle my hair becomes and the less easily it seems to bounce back from such harsh things as chemical processing and so I deal with the bland straightness. Perhaps my hair will decide to be naturally curly like my sister's one of these days but until then I can only remember it fondly and attempt to recreate it with products and tools. 

This brings me to my first ever YouTube video! 


This is a very basic tutorial on how to use a diffuser to make your straight hair wavy or, for those of you lucky ladies with naturally curly/wavy hair, how to use a diffuser and product to define and enhance your curls. I hope you like it...I hope its not too long...and I hope I can do more (better) videos like it in the future. 

Let me know what you think and if there are more things you want me to do a tutorial video on!

love and curly hair dreams,
Katie

I definitely have to try this! I have fine, thin, no body type hair. I'm always in need of pumping up the volume with some waves :) Thanks!
