I have the same problem. I take a shower and when my hair is still wet, i put Defrizz stuff in my hair..then i either braid my hair into pig tails OR twist my hair into a bun...by morning.. my hair is still kinda wet yet curly/wavy. I then flip my hair.. spray hair spray all over my hair. Good Luck!
At night, take a shower, then immediately put your hair into braids (small braids, but not too small). Keep them in till the next morning, and when you unbraid them, your hair will be curly! It works great, and it doesn't take any hassles.
when you get out of the shower towl dry your hair untill it is damp not soaked, then use mega holding gel and scrunch it or use sprunch. DO NOT BLOW DRY :P
Leave them in overnight, take them out the next morning, shake your ehad around to loosen them. Voila! You have bed-messy sexy waves. I absolutely love my hair everytime i use these granny curlers. Dont use them on wet hair though. Just air dry your hair for a little bit and when it's just barely dry then put the curlers in.
