Curling your Hair Overnight with a Sock

With these instructions you can curl your hair with minimal effort and no heat. Say good-bye to getting up early to do your hair!

Materials:

Brush
Elastic band
Sock
Mousse, gel or other hair product

Step 1: Prepare the Sock

Cut off the toe of a clean sock to make a tube. Roll it from one end to the other to form a donut shape.

Choosing a sock: If you want tight curls, use a thinner or shorter sock. If you want bigger curls, use a thicker or longer sock.

I don't get it. I really wanted to tho'. Perhaps some pics of where and how the sock is set?

Awesome!!! I love the loose curls as well. I can't wait to try it tonight! Also, what a great idea for an unmatched, dryer-eaten, mateless sock. Thx!

I really like the loose waves that this gave your hair, but I'm a little confused. How do you initially put the sock on the hair? Do you pull the ponytail through the opening in the donut and then start rolling? Also I'm also not sure from the description how the sock keeps the bun from unrolling once you remove the elastic. Thanks!

You're right, I didn't describe the rolling part very well. I edited it a little bit. Hope it helps. And most socks are somewhat elastic so the sock holds the bun pretty well by itself but not as well as an elastic. Basically, you just can't whip your head back and forth :)
