Curled hair

[flonnebonne]

 Whenever I see someone with artificially curled hair playing some kind of action heroine or secret agent or whatever, all I can think is 'where do you find the time to curl your hair' and I can't pay attention to the actual plot anymore, I just can't.

This made me lol. I don't know what it's like to curl hair. :D

OMG it takes so long.

Well I guess if you're good at it it doesn't take that long. I don't know, I'm not good at it. I just know that you are supposed to do it layer by layer--first you do the bottom layer of your hair (so you put the damn heated stick near your neck and face) strand by strand, and then you do the middle layer, and then you do the top layer. Gah. I tried to curl my hair when I was a bridesmaid in a wedding and let's just say I ended up wearing a hairband instead. Someone said to me "aren't you going to do something with your hair?" and I was like MURDEROUS RAGE.

There are faster ways to do it (like twisting it up in a towel when it's wet) but it doesn't look the same. The ladies on TV are all doing it the long way as far as I can tell.

What about perming where they chemically damage the hair so it curls and stays curled?

Hm, good point! Yeah, if if it's obviously a perm it doesn't affect me so much. I can see a high-powered character going to the parlour once every few months or whatever.
