Sock Hair

I have the kind of hair that needs constant attention. My hair is thin, lightweight, prone to serious static, frizzy, and last but the greatest thing of all is that my hair is GREASY! I have to wash the nasty head of locks EVERY day. I hate having to do that, especially now that I'm a mommy and don't really have the time to. And if you're thinking that I should just wash it at night before bed with no fuss then you're WRONG, wrong I tell you! 

If I don't dry it it ends up looking a little something like this...

This was my honeymoon people!!! You live and learn and then do the sock bun.

SOOOOO when I saw THIS picture and tutorial (really great directions and even a video) the other day I had to give it a try. If I can actually wash my hair at night without it looking crazy and greasy all day long then I'm game. I grabbed one of Kevin's socks, cut the toe off and rolled it. I washed my hair and then let it air dry a little before rolling the sock into my hair. I wanted it too be fully dry by morning. 

Woke up the next morning, unrolled the sock and here's how it turned out...

I love it! I did not do a thing to it. I just put a clip in it and off Abe and I went to run some errands and to visit my Grandma. Go ahead, try it! You know you want to.


Tonight I am making these for our Christmas tree.


 


So easy and so cute! Instead of putting a monogram in the middle I'm thinking something like "Away in a manger", "Joy to the world", "Peace on earth". HERE is how you can make them too!
