Naturally curly hair, want waves, using braids..?

okay so im using braids! but my hair is naturally CURLY.

and how many

I would make the braids tight and used several all around your head. Also make them different sizes so your waves look more natural - a couple of thinner braids near the face, fatter braids at the back.

Honestly, though, I found the best way to get waves is to blow dry the hair straight and set in hot rollers. Or straighten with an iron and use hot rollers. OR you can even use some irons to create waves after you've straightened.

Try to use a LOT of conditioning, anti-frizz, leave-ins. Braids are quite nice, if you feel lazy putting hair in a messy bun leaves beautifully scrunched hair. You could try sleeping in rollers but its quite uncomfortable, and in my experience they are hard to put in.

Good luck!

I just do two one on each side and make them tight and when my hair is dry in the morning take em out and they are wavy. But they get annoying because i don't like having poofs in my hair thats basically what it does no matter what you do.

the minute you get out of the shower get a lil gel in your hair when its wet and them make two tite braids and sleep with it and the next morning you hair will be dry and take off the braids and your hair will be kinda straigh on the top and wavy on the booton but you should dif put some gel if you have realy curly hair only on its wet

I would make them loose, but be careful, to much braiding can thin your hair or break it off bad on the sides.
