So I caved and got the long and wide curlformers, they are the orange and pinks ones. I put them in last night after washing my hair and letting it air dry until almost dry. I did my usual routine of applying heat protect spray, leave in conditioner and a serum and blow dried my fringe. I then used my tangle teezer to gently brush my hair.

After all the knots were out I separated it up into layers and put the curlformers in, they are very easy to use and didn't take long at all (there are loads of videos on YouTube showing how to put them in)

Once they were all in I looked a little something like this: 

Then I went to bed, they are SO uncomfortable to sleep in! It pulled at your hair when you lean on one or accidentally pull it, so unless you're someone who stays very still when you're asleep, then I would recommend it. (Next time I'm gonna put them in on the morning of a day when I don't have to leave the house!)

Anyways,

I woke up this morning, they had all stayed in place over night, and them I removed them, the curls are amazing! To begin with I looked a bit like a doll with perfect, separate curls, (which I didn't get a pic of, sorry) So I used a wide toothed comb and my fingers to loosen them a bit. They were very bouncy so I got some argan oil rubbed on my palms and smoothed it through my hair and helped them drop a little.

Here's some pics7 hours after taking them out:

I really love them, and I love that I can get this without using heat! I'm so impressed that they still look like this, as any curls I have using curling tongs fall out after an hour or so on me!

Gorgeous!

One thing that's good, if you don't have much time, you can use heat on them, but it's minimal as they're so open. So you can gently blast with the hairdryer on low and cool. I have a hood dryer which is oh so sexy! lol It's no where near as bad as the direct heat from a blow dryer as the heat is circulating around.

Oh my gosh!!!  Your curls look amazing!  πŸ˜€

I wish I had known about these when my hair was longer.  The only way I could get curls like that and keep them was by using a super hot straightener which was really hard on my hair.  πŸ™

It looks amazing!! I really want some now - my hair can never hold curl for more than an hour or so either, it just goes straight back to poker straight!

Wow they look amazing! Did you use hairspray? Because if these lasted 7 hours without it then that's insane πŸ™‚

When I use them, my curls drop gradually, but they're always still there days later, normally they last a full week. And I use no product at all.
