Ok so if I didn't have to go to work tonight I could totally turn this into an awesome updo but I'm not allowed to wear my hair up and well, what I have right now is SUPER curlies. Looks like a fresh perm lol. I used the bandanna snake wave method but I think I did too many! :laugh: It's actually a little amusing (again...I need to concentrate on the fact that I need to look polished for work tonight)

I can wash it but then I'd have to blow dry and prob use the curling iron a little since my hair would take forever to dry and fix. So....HELP!

Dampen and english/rope braid? :confused:

Dampen or oil and put it in a very smooth tight bun like a lazy wrap. After a few hours being stretched out like this, it should loose a good deal of its curl.

Seems strange that your workplace doesn't allow updos.... They're practically required for me.

But I'll second the "moisten and bun" suggestion. That should help stretch them back out.

I ended up first trying my curling iron. Failed!

Washed and starting over. ahhh well.

Note to self....DO not try new things unless I know I can wear it up for at least a day or two. Doh!

Thanks for the tips though everyone. I'll keep that filed away just in case ;)

Oh and I work at a nightclub so yeah, hair has to be down.

Why couldn't you wear your hair curly, did it look messy?

Wow, that's a strange requirement, I'm surprised, even for a night club.

I think I would object to that as much or more than a lot of people object to the 'hair up' requirement. :lol: then again, my hair tends to annoy me when it's down, and tangles a lot. And sometimes no matter what I do, it just does NOT behave itself when worn down, at ALL.
