Victory Rolls on Short Hair

Jan 23, 2012 21:48


Hi Ladies! It's been a really, really long time but I wanted to share some success I've had with victory rolls. At the time I took this picture, my hair was just about chin length and in a fairly straight-cut bob. My hair was washed that morning and had a little hairspray from the day in it (this was at night). I didn't set it in curlers or use a curling iron. I have straight hair thats medium thick.

Prior to this, I had tried and tried to get the rolls but was all thumbs when wrapping it up. I finally watched a tutorial on YouTube, which unfortunately I can't find now, that said wrap your hair around your thumb pointing down, switch thumbs for each side, pin once going forward from behind and pin once going from the front to back and voila. For some reason this works super awesome.

Thanks for the wonderful inspirational photos you post!
