Using Rollers or Curlers

Step 3: Take a section of hair and wrap it around a roller or curler. Make sure the roller or curler is secure and tight.
Step 4: Repeat with all sections of hair.
Step 5: Leave the rollers or curlers in for a few hours or overnight.
Step 6: Remove the rollers or curlers and gently brush through the curls with your fingers.
Braiding Hair Overnight
Step 1: Start with clean, dry hair.
Step 2: Divide your hair into sections. The number of sections will depend on the thickness of your hair.
Step 3: Braid each section of hair tightly.
Step 4: Go to sleep and leave the braids in overnight.
Step 5: In the morning, remove the braids and gently brush through the curls with your fingers.
Twisting Hair into Buns
Step 1: Start with clean, dry hair.
Step 2: Divide your hair into sections. The number of sections will depend on the thickness of your hair.
Step 3: Twist each section of hair tightly and wrap it into a bun. Secure the bun with a hair tie or bobby pins.
Step 4: Leave the buns in for a few hours or overnight.
Step 5: Remove the buns and gently brush through the curls with your fingers.
