The Twins got their library cards today. This is a big deal for our kids, to get library cards. The child has to be six and have the ability to write their first and last name unassisted. Zach and Joe have been practicing for weeks on their names. Way to go!And the next section of this post we'll call "Advice Needed".
Essy loves her hair curly. This past Sunday she wanted curls for church, so I put her freshly washed, damp hair in the spongy curlers. In the a.m. we unrolled the rollers and her hair was a curly mess! I didn't brush them, just put a little gel on my hands and ran my fingers through her hair.
My dilemma.....how do I get softer less tight curls? Larger rollers??? drier hair??? smaller amounts of hair for each roll???Please help!
Oh yeah, HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Cute, cute, cute! If you want softer looser curls you need larger rollers. Maybe some of the hot curlers, if they still have them. It's hard to sleep on larger rollers. : )
Are you opposed to a curling iron in the morning? (it's a lot of extra time, I know) But I would try a larger sized curling iron and curl large sections of hair at a time. And if you leave the end straight (start curling about an inch or two from the bottom) it will give you that beachy look. If her hair has a hard time holding a curl, start with a hair wax pomade type thing and hair spray before you curl. Good luck!
PS Can you tell that I also have stick straight hair that doesn't like to hold a curl but love to have it curly? =)
Hi Katy! I've been putting sponge rollers in M's hair since it was long enough to roll up! Macy has thin hair, so this may not help you!
I use between 8-12 rollers - the same size you used, although I do have larger ones too.
The only differences - I never put product in her hair, and I never run my fingers through her hair. Taking the curlers out is practically an art form (just kidding) - no, really, the key (for me) is to carefully take the curlers out, and then I separate the curl with my fingers. Sometimes I make it look like I put in 68 curlers, and other times 32 and still other times 20...Okay, but you want less tight curls...I say use less rollers for starters. You may have to experiment...
Also, I find that her hair relaxes throughout the day, did E's?
How long is Esther's hair?
I have used hot rollers on M's hair and I got a much softer look, but it didn't last all day. Poor girl, she has my hair!
