Recently, I finally ordered another pack of small Soft Spikes. My first roller set was in October and I really liked the way it turned out. My curls were going pretty strong for about a week and a half - with no setting lotion. But when I ran out of soft spikes, I was really scrounging around. I found a few sponge rollers and still didn't have enough of those. I had to make a couple foil rods to finish up the last sections.
But this time around, I was able to make smaller sections and frame my face much better without the stress of running out of curlers. It took me about an hour and a half to roll my hair and I did use Crinkles and Curls setting foam. Then sat under the dryer for about 40 minutes as an insurance for it to be dry in the morning. When I unrolled it in the morning, I didn't finger comb the curls or anything. I don't mind the Miss Poodle America look since I have serious issues with spending hours on my hair and having nothing to show for it the next day. I won't have to worry about that this time around.
I don't think the pictures have the best clarity, but with my hair texture - it is what it is. Thank goodness I can finally appreciate it.

manipulate the spirals until you showed us your "Brenda's Soft Spike Guide." Thanks again!
Still - Oh thank you so much for stopping by and leaving such
kind words. I appreciate it.
Linda - Thanks girl! It's the Crinkles and Curls setting foam by Taliah Waajid (Black Earth
Products). I picked it up from Star Beauty in Cleve. Hts. It smells really really good, but I'm not convined the curls are holding any longer. Maybe a little. I guess it doesn't hurt though.
I would love a get together. Keep me posted.

Well look a there! I'm so impressed that sponge rollers could actually do that, good job! Also, (wink, wink) the hair pens are very nice.
What in the world are you feeding the locks? They are taking off like a jet plane.
Nice curls! And the side shot shows some nice growth. You look great.
