I've got really thin hair, and it doesn't like to hold a curl. 

Pin curls haven't really worked, nor has a perm, or a curling iron. 

I know that a lot of the time, curling works better on day old unwashed hair, but I can't really do that - my hair gets ridiculously oily if I don't wash it every day, and it doesn't feel or look good when that happens.

LADIES!!! 

I have found something that I think might work. 

I'm trying it out tonight. 

No heat, no rollers, no bobby pins.

Socks.

I know, I was a little put off at first, too. But I'm going to try it anyway. 

I've tried everything else. 

I'll let you know if it worked in the morning! 

Happy curls!

It works! 

I don't have any pictures (both my camera and phone are on the fritz right now), and it's not the perfect pinup curl by a long shot. 

But it's the best result I've had in a long, long time. 
I'm going to use it from now on!
