I've always wanted curly hair.
I got many home perms while growing up, always dreaming of soft, flowing waves.
But what did I end up with? Little ringlets that curled up tightly around my already too round face.
????There are so many new options for curlers tempting me these days.
Amazon has dozens of styles. Here are some of my favorites.
Have you tried any of these?
The hearts are my personal favorites.

I often slept in little rubber curlers like the ones below, only to wake up to those dreaded ringlets again.

For some reason I never got the hang of the curlers with snap-on covers (below).
The covers always left dents in my hair.

Who knew curlers could even help with arthritis pain?
Here's a tip from WebMD:
Help at Your Fingertips
Pushing microwave buttons, brushing your teeth, and even eating can be tough if you have osteoarthritis in your fingers. Try these DIY solutions: Slide cylindrical foam over your fork or toothbrush for an easier grip. (Large sponge hair rollers can be perfect.) Put a rubber stopper on the end of a ruler or a dowel. Use it to push microwave, television, and other buttons.

I've lately made my own curlers using this tutorial.
But I can't get my hair to stay wrapped around the cloth.
Maybe when it gets a little longer it'll work??
They're too cute to hide away until I can use them though.
I'm thinking of displaying them in a little basket on our bedroom dresser.
And, last but not least, my latest find in curlers.
Self-stay rollers from the Dollar Tree!
They are the easiest curlers I've ever used.
No clamps, pins, or ties.
Just roll up my hair and press down to make them stay.
It took 43 of these little cuties to get my thick hair all rolled up.
And when I took it down?
Well, let's just say I can now identify with Frieda.
Boo hoo.
I'm joining in with my friends for Pink Saturday this week.
