You would think that ...uh, I dunno, I'd put on some make-up and maybe . ... uhhh, something cute ..at least a bra - before I did one of these ...lol.
. . . this morning . . . after sleeping on the little spiral buns

Remove pins and let spirals un-twirl . .. .make sure they are fully dry ...you can use a hair dryer a bit but it's better to do it before unravelling buns. ...I don't mind a little frizzzzzzz ...
Use your fingers to separate waves ...do not brush out.

I made the top section a little larger/thicker so the curl wasn't as tight which sort of lays over the rest. . . .The smaller sections and more twisted spiral buns you do all over your head, the curlier it turns out.
Use a small barrel curling iron {in this fashion} on stray pieces. But really, the point of it is NOT to be perfect. You want it big and messy and crazy!

Damn girl, you sure have a shit-ton of hair. I think my whole head has about as much hair as one of your little buns...
WOW! That is amazing!! I have major hair envy right now. My hair is a lot shorter than yours but I'm going to give it a go this weekend - yay for a blond afro!
SO AWESOME. I'm so doing this. Thats pretty effing unbeweavable. Love it, it's gorgeous.
Lakers are killlling. YAY!
... Dahlink, ..you look Mauvelous!!!
Nice transformation.
I have not been ambitious enough to do that trick since I was a tween.
I'm hoping your video-pictorial will light that spark up in me soon! ;P
Just gorgeous! Ur so sultry Meagan.
thats sooo fun!

This hair-to is making me miss my really long hair! I love it. Thanks for sharing!
love it love it!! if only mine could look like that if i tried it=)! and laughing about your not wearing make up comment...still gorgeous!
Sexay...I looove it. When I do this my hair gets too short,I am def trying the larger buns on top...nicer look.
Now those are some Bridgette volume!!
I'm going to a party tomorrow night as a playboy bunny so wanted to do my hair all curly nd wavy so this post couldn't have come at a better time xxx great tips!!
I have rather short hair & some days, it just doesn't do as it's told. I'll definitely be giving this a go =) x
Gorgeous hair! I wish my hair curled like that...it would straighten within an hour.
I think I may have to try this out on my short hair.
I've tried this on my longer hair and it just didn't work at all. :[
Fabulous. I used to do something similar to this when I was younger and completely forgot about it. Way to be.
I have naturally curly hair and I just DON'T see my hair doing that! You are lucky! lol (but i'm gonna try ;) ) Thanks for sharing. You're hair looks fantastic! (but what's new?)
wow! that was uhmazing!!! you never cease to amaze me my dear! i totally need to try this ! thanks for posting!
I love that you're not wearing any make-up. The thing is, if I did this with *my* hair I would look like a total Orphan Annie freakshow because my length is too short. LOVE yours though.
Also, how 'bout those Lakera?! 25 point massacre, whhhhhhatt!
soo excited to try this!!!
i love it!!! i wish i had ur head of hair u look great

gorgeous!! I've tried something like this but my hair are so fine and straight that it's impssible to style them.
For you an "AWARD" go to:

I HAVE to try this!
I've done braids but never spirals buns. will have to try! love that shot of the back of your hair, it totally looks natural!
I also have to tell you that I LOVE your style archive with the Polaroids of each outfit. So adorable. I was thinking of making a photo book of a year of my lookbooks. I may have to borrow (or rather steal) your idea as the polaroid outfits as my layout for the title page.
haha, totally vain right? but i figure once I'm old it will be nice to see what I used to wear! :)
Beautiful!! and easy!! I wish i had your hair!!.
Con esta super melena que tienes no me extraña que te haya quedado tan bien. Muchas gracias por compartirlo ;)
With this super hair you have no wonder you have been so good. Thank you very much for sharing;)
Pretty hair, and beautiful blog :)
Wow...your hair makes me want to weep because it's so gorgeous, lol :)
This looks great on you! I have naturally wavy hair but with gel it goes curly...blah I prefer sleek and straight on me :)
looks great!! makes me wish i had long hair again...
Freakin love it!
I had been lusting after these types of curls my entire life- I have never been satisfied with my natrual curls-
If only you had posted this before I chopped of my hair...sigh!
gorgeous! I'm not sure my hair would curl like this!
I am SO EXCITED to try this...I love me some mini buns...your curls are heavenly.
So, I saw this today on another blog & because of its ridiculously prohibitive price tag ($265) I wanted to see if you liked it & were perhaps up for a DIY challenge:
http://www.marquiscamus.com/viewproduct.asp?menu_id=2&category_id=5&itemtype_id=5&item_id=257
I'm pretty sure my hair equals MAYBE one quarter of yours, ha! It's fine, so say the least. Gorgeous - you did a great job!
Love it! I forgot how easy that is to do.
..and you are too cute singing along to lady gaga :)
I love it! I may have to try it this weekend. I had been spiral-curling it with a curling iron but it was destroying my hair. This seems much less damaging, especially if you don't do it too tightly.
love it! you look amazing with that hair and I love your method!
lovely curls, have to try that some time! thanks for the tip x
Oh wow! Amazing! You have wonderful hair!
Thanks for this post!
Happy friday!
Love your hair! Maybe even my hair can take to these curls? It is so straight it refuses all attempts to shape it into any unnatural shapes or forms.... annoying.
Thank you thank you thank you... and of course it doesn't seem so hard now that you broke it down for us... silly me, I can do my hair in 40's pinup rolls... why was I so scared of these little twists? lol :) Curly hair will be mine!!
Um, I have a giant girl-crush on you. Haha!! Your hair is awesome. Thanks for the how-to. I need to try it soon - hopefully my hubby likes big hair too!
Wow!! That looks amazing, I will have to try it.
make up or bra?
overrated!
great video.
Um...so on yesterday's outfit post I was totally loving the hair & wondering how you did it. So now I'll be trying this over the weekend. Thanks! Oh! & I love the little sing-a-longs during the video. You're so cute!
Girl you have a ton of hair! I wonder if this will look half as good on my measly head of hair!! So trying it.
Thanks for sharing this how-to, it motivates me to do something more with my hair then simply pulling it back.
Wow, love it! You've got such beautiful hair:))
Whimsy girl did this a few months ago and I was reminded again of my gramma who called these "pin curls" and did this every night before she went to bed. It really does work!
i have wavy/curly hair....if i did this...i would have an afro lol and wouldnt look great like you...but i think i should try it just for the heck of it!
So glad you made a hair to on this! I am going to get me some bobbi pins tonight and do this for the weekend! Love the way it looks! I wonder if my hair is already wavy if it will make the curls tighter?? Oh well, cant wait to try it!
Ok I will follow theses exact steps! ;) Love how it turned out!
awesomely done, that bun. gonna try it tonight! thanks for the tip! your site is awesome because you give all the tips a cool sister would give!
THIS IS THE BEST HAIR IN THE WORLD!!! love it.
and i just want to say "tiny buns" all the time. :)
I suddenly want to do my hair big tomorrow. I tried this once with those sponge rollers and it was awful in the morning. I haven't tried twisties though.
it turned out so awesome!!! I am so doing this....maybe tonight!
thanks...love your hair-to's:)
Ah I'm so jealous you can get crazy curls! My hair is too stick-straight to anything with - although I may have to try that out to see if it works. =)
I think I'm convinced...I'm growing out my bangs! Maybe...
I have to try it!
I need to try this on my mop!!
Love this... got to try :)
Thank you
You have soo much hair. Im so jealous.. i have flat, straight boring hair. I love the curls on you!
your hair is so so beautiful. i cant believe how lovely those curls look. im going to try that asap!! xxx
I have to say...you remind me of Taylor Swift in this post. You are so beautiful!!! Lovely post!
Ooh, thanks for the tutorial! I'm so excited to try this. =)
Oh yes I love this...such a long time since I did it. I think this is the best way to create gorgeous curles (and it's much more protective than the curling iron).
you are awesome/amazing and all the above!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE THIS!!! thanks!!!!
ooohh LOVE this! Your hair looks gorgeous...sigh :)
i so wish i had your hair :)
HOW FUN! Definately going to have to try this! Love you blog love!

You inspire me to be BIG and messy Maegan! I me not me.. the HAIR... derr... "smacks self"!
ok, i am doing this technique tonight with my hair - wish me luck!!! it's such a cute style!
xo
I love this...I have done it four or five times now. Works like charm even on my stick straight hair! It's wonderful for lounging by the pool, and then taking it down for a night out.
I love how this turns out! I have wavy hair but this is so cute!!
Awesome!! You have FABULOUS hair :) Great tutorial. Must try this out. I've tried sleeping with my hair in braids... but its not a pretty picture the next morning, na-ahh.
It's called a bantu know out, and it came out beautifully!
does the hair have to be wet to do this?
This is so cute. It looks totally Taylor Swift in the final outcome. My hair is a bit too shot but I'll totally try it :D
The hair is cute, those are also called bantu knots.
okay, definitely going to try this. I'm black, and a lot of black girls do flat twists and braids to get waves, but my hair is to fine and the waves always fall flat. This technique might be a little more successful for me! I'll let you know!.
I did it and it worked great!! thanks :)
thanks for the tutorial. m gona try it this weekend. have always been wondering how to get natural curls. this sure is helpful!
Love, love, love, love, LOVE your hair! You are sooo pretty. I have always wanted curly hair not my annoying half-wavy, half-staight hair, but I never wanted the heat. You make this so easy! I'm so trying it tonight! :D
P.S. Once you take down your hair you remind me of Taylor Swift so much. You're so pretty! Rock on the big, messy waves!
nice job, pretty hair, pretty girl, but be real, you have make up on.
I've always done this and never really perfected it. Thanks for posting this I'm loving it! Wish my hair was as long as yours though!

I just wanted to say, that I LOVE YOU! I have never, EVER been able to have curly hair. Even when I curl it with a curling iron and use a whole can of hair spray it would fall out within 4 hours. I saw your post on Pinterest a few weeks back and saved it, and this morning I was feeling a little spontanious so I hopped out of the shower and twisted up my hair. I let it dry (used a hair dryer as well) and when I took it out I started wondering if it was really going to stay. It has been 12 hours and I STILL have my curly hair. I am so thankful that I stumbled acrossed your blog. I am forever a follower!! :)
Thank you!

Next time my whims demand curls, I'm going to try this. I've got a TON of stick-straight hair and I've never been happy with any of the other tricks I've tried (pin curls were a huge mess, emphasis on huge).
PS - I've watched a LOT of hair tutorials, and I usually end up muting them because the girls sound either inane or like huge bitches... but I love yours! You are totally the kind of girl I could get ready for a party with. ^_^
The only way to get "naturally curly hair" is to be born with it. I think you meant "How to get curly hair naturally."
Hair loss get big curls with tiny buns. Read to know more
Lol. Your face... i cant even deal. Trying to vogue in the mirror as you unroll your hair...
I love it im trying this tonight FINGERS CROSSED!!!!!!!!!!!
-HM

In how many sections did you part the hair? Love it!!!
