Eco Rag Curls

(blogged previously here)

Yay!  I finally found my pictures of Rag Curls results from way back when I had long hair.  As previously blogged, rag curls are using strips of fabrics from old t-shirts (old sheets, pillow cases, anything fabric) to curl your hair.  These pictures are almost a year old.  Honestly the one thing I miss about my long hair is being able to do this.  I don’t miss anything else about it having long hair though.  It was so much work for me because again I’m really lazy.  I never blew dried my hair (eco anyway) because I never had the patience and I hated brushing because it’d tire my arms and I’d just make my mainsqueeze do it for me.  He didn’t really like the chore but had no choice.  Haha I know I’m soo lazy.  Super low matience when it comes to myself.  I like things simple and get on with my day.  So this eco-friendly hair curling technique was really convienent for me because I would just tie my hair with rags at night and sleep in them which resulted in really curly hair depending on how tight you tie it.  Because I have super straight hair I really love wavy hair.  We always want what we don’t have and those who have it, want what we have.  It’s true I tell ya.  So embrace what you have, flaunt it, and then use rag curls when you want wavy hair :)  But seriously, I wasn’t just talking about hair now.  Leave society’s opinions behind, love yourself, and don’t let anyone label you anything negative.

Anyhoo, here are Rag Curls results which I only left in for a few hours and not overnight.  Experiment with it.  My hair died out gradually throughout the day but I was okay with that.

When my hair is long enough again, I’ll try to provide step to step pictures.  The trick is…PRACTICE.  It’s tricky but like with anything, you’ll get better at it with time.
