Hawaii has an annual event, the Merrie Monarch Festival, which is a 3 day long hula competition. I've been watching it since Thursday night, and am in a state of utter envy :o. Most (if not all) of the women performing in this have such LONG hair!! Alot of them are past tailbone!
I did notice, though, in the individual women's portion of the competition, it looks like several of the women put micro-braids in their hair for mini-braid waves, for volume. I can't find any pictures of them from behind (lol, maybe because everyone else is focused on the dancing, and not the hair), but if might be more obvious from the videos. For some of them the volume looked like natural mini-curls, but not all of them.
