Hey guys! Sadly, this post will be the last of this little blogging series - it's been fun though. For the final post, it'll be a tutorial on sock curling. Now, for this particular tutorial I used very thick socks because I wanted to demonstrate how you can vary the types of curls you get if you were to use thick socks over small ones (which would give the same sort of curl as using rags). If you use thicker socks, you'll end up with a loose curl/wave in your hair that's really quite flattering. I'd suggest using slightly thinner socks if you have short hair to make sure your hair has actual curls or waves in it by the end of it. Here's what you'll need:

Hi! For this week's tutorial, I'll be writing about something I'm sure we've all heard of somehow... French Braiding. Not only do these braids look super cute on their own, they can overnight create beautiful waves. This is something I've been doing since I was about 13 - it's very simple to do once you know how. It's all about practice!

Hi guys, this week's hair post will be a lesson on headband curling. This is one of my favourite ways of curling my hair as the curls last about two days on my hair (crazy, right?) and they just look gorgeous! They're easy to work with and still look amazing the next day. PS: I'm so sorry that I couldn't get this up by Wednesday, I've had exams to revise for and simply didn't have time for it. I hope you understand, anyway, let's get at it!

This next post is going to be a tutorial on how to pin curl. There's not really much to say with this one, it's basically wrapping your hair around your fingers and pinning your hair with a bobby pin/grip on the top of your head. In my opinion, it works best on those with shorter hair. Layers are also quite an issue. This post sucked pretty hard for me because I hadn't done this method of curling since I had shorter, non-layered hair. So you can imagine my struggle. Nevertheless, I did it and it's done and you can now learn how to do it :)

This post, I'll be showing you how I curl my hair with bobbles. It has no official name as far as I'm aware so let's just for arguments sake call it bobble curling - makes sense, right? Here's the finished look...

The first post of this mini-series will be teaching you (if you don't already know) how to rag curl! Rag curling is using cut up materials such as jeans, shirts or even flannels to create tight curls. This looks gorgeous on people with long hair but suits almost anybody in all honesty. The above pictures show how it looked on my little sister when I did her hair for her primary school leaver's party. It's obvious how beautiful this looks and the fact that it requires 10 minutes of fiddling along with a good nights sleep is a plus. So, let's get cracking with the tutorial!
