Ok..so I am growing out my hair. Getting some bangs this weekend. I want to pincurl my hair into large curls so I can wash it less and be cute!!!

I bought some mousse which would give a loose but good hold. I need to do big one's because my hair is slighty wavy in spots and will go CURLY CURLY CURLY if I do rollers too small. Any ideas on how I go about this? I have the basic bobby pins...something about them that I love. I think because my Nanna used to pin curl her hair.

My Mammaw used to pincurl hers too and then tie a scarf around all of them. I remember just making a circle and then using 1 or 2 bobby pins to catch the hair in. Does that make any sense?

You use your finger to hold the circle of hair in place as you slip the bobby pin over the circle of hair. Geez I wish you lived close to me,it would be a cinch to show you how in person.

I get excited and nostalgic when I see a women in the store in her "rollers" or pincurls with her colorful scarf carefully placed over them. I think it is the idea of simple beauty that I like and that it reminds me of my lovely Nanna.

Oh yes... mother used to wash and set her hair everyday all kept under cover with a scarf, I now collect those kinds of scarfs, so many pretty colors and designs I wonder if they still sell those. O the memories of sleepin in pin curls... not one of my favorite things, was to much of a tom boy. Great link Katrina

I wonder what my short hair would like if I did this to it? It sure looks nice on the model who has long hair at the website.
