But this is going to revolutionise the speed it takes me to get ready!

I've just tried it, really quickly with straighteners curling my hair, brilliant!

That's amazing! Just need my hair to grow a bit longer now!

Safmellow · 29/08/2014 17:35

What a fab idea, may grow my hair just so I can try it! :)

HopeAndStories · 29/08/2014 18:42

Ooh, I'm going to try this tomorrow!

Greengardenpixie · 29/08/2014 18:46

That is a good idea!!! Think i might try that tomorrow. I have a ton of curling devices!!

Update if you have success. I am useless with my longer hair but would love to do something a bit more imaginative...

AgathaF · 29/08/2014 19:23

Wow - what a good idea. Will be trying that in the morning.

HeffalumpsnWoozles · 29/08/2014 21:22

Definitely going to give this a go, might have to faff with my layers a bit but still it's got to be quicker.

That makes so much sense!

I can't get the link to work - what is this amazing idea please?!

r2d2ismyidealman · 30/08/2014 07:16

Any feedback on this? I use hot rollersand can't imagine this being quicker or easier but would like to know!

CeeceeBloomingdale · 30/08/2014 07:38

The teenagers told me this trick last week, must try it (putting hair I'm a ponytail and curling the tail, then letting the hair back down)

Karbea · 30/08/2014 13:59

I did it again this morning with my straighteners, it works. My hair could do with being a tiny bit longer to be perfect, but it's just so quick!

No wonder female teenagers are so groomed looking these days. Pinterest, youtube tutorials... All we had was a double page spread in Jackie on hair mascaras. Sad

AgathaF · 30/08/2014 15:10

Oh! Jackie magazine - that takes me back Grin.

Agatha "why not practice snogging on an orange?" Grin

AgathaF · 30/08/2014 22:41

Coumarin - Grin and those articles where they showed teenage lads with various surly expressions with an explanation of what each expression meant..

You gotta love it!

I know this was a couple of weeks ago but I finally got me some cheap tongs so I could give it a go - It works!

I have shoulder length hair so I did two high up bunches (my 4 year old was very taken with this, seeing as though she also had high bunches today!) and I curled the bunches. Looked good, not as polished as when I section and curl for special occasions, but definitely something I'll be doing a lot because it loooked different, like I'd made an effort but only took 5 minutes!
