Day 14/21: Vintage Inspired Waves

I’ve been loving the look of vintage inspired glam waves lately and wanted to try it out on myself in a way that did not require finger waves!  I came across a photo/demo of Lauren Conrad on Pinterest and tried it out today!

Here is a link to the website, BeautyDepartment, with instructions on achieving the look. 

I used their placement of curls, but used hot rollers (that I had to dig out of my closet and blow the dust off!) instead of the curling iron.  Yesterday I attempted the curling iron way and it wasn’t as successful. 

I started with smoothing Moroccan Oil along the ends of my hair.

I put the hot rollers in and left them for about 45 minutes until they were completely cooled.. did my makeup and finished some coffee in the meantime ;)

After taking them down, I hair sprayed with Davines Crystal Fixative (ultimate fav hairspray) and let it sit for a few minutes before combing.

After combing to desired smoothness, I sprayed one final time!

Love it!
