Yes, I did it..I tried something new.  For those that don't know me, I am known for a ShariTail.  Customary ponytail.  Those that know me may not understand exactly why I sport a ponytail most of the time.  Well, my thick, frizzy curly hair is unruly to say the least.  Heat or humidity makes it grow like a Chia Pet. Water makes it curl up.  Nice curls but carrying around a water bottle throughout the day to keep my hair wet-hard option when you work on a computer daily! Short Cuts..Um NOT GOOD AT ALL!  I start looking like a Monchichi Doll. So, with the restraints on our family budget-I skipped the trip to the beauty salon and went to the beauty store.  What great finds! Nail Polish-Cotton Candy $1.00.  Hair Color-Cocoa Brown 75 cents. Hot Red Flip Flops $2.99. So, buying the loop rod rollers for $6.99 for 25 was a steal. So I stop by Walmart to get my new favorite organic chocolate, Green&Black Toffee,completed my girl pamper day at a bargain- all for less than 10 bucks! Hair, nails and sweets!
Here's where the fun began. The Loop Rod Rollers came with NO directions.  YES NO DIRECTIONS!  For a non-girlie girl this was going to be a difficult task.  But rest assure, google is my friend.  I googled: Loop Rod Rollers.  I found one review. It was not favorable.  Basically, all thumbs down from this fellow unruly hair girlfriend.  So, I preceded with extreme caution and no hopes of success.
To my amazement, the loop rod rollers where very easy to use.  I started with small sections of wet hair and applied setting lotion and began to twist about an inch and half of hair in one direction and then started back up over the hair to get the rod to stay in place.  (The article told tales of it slipping out!)  I took my time and got 25 loop rod rollers in my hair.  Yes, 25 of them.  The trick is small sections and go up and then back down to wrap hair on rod. The secret is to interlock the rods once you get going so that they do not slip or flap around.  See my crazy picture.



 The only problem I had was drying my hair.  Remember THICK UNRULY.  I sat under a dryer.  Of course forgetting that the rollers are plastic and they started poppin and meltin. YES.  It was funny!  So I stopped immediately and then started planning how I was going to sleep sitting up.  The Cost of Pretty Curls!

The next morning after scaring my husband who did not see me when I went to bed!  I adjusted my neck and began to remove, after spraying my hair with a humidity hair spray.  The curls. OMG!  So worth the crappy night sleep!  They were perfect beautiful curls.  Better than I had ever imagined.  Unlike my fellow unruly hair girlfriend, I give the Loop Rod Rollers thumbs up!  Side note: The crappy night sleep brought me three days of beautiful fun curls!  Yes, I will be using the loop rod rollers and will most definitely go back to my local beauty supply store to buy another size and see how the curls come out with varying sizes.  The key to start early in the day.  Sit around do a little laundry.  Do some BACKyard work.  Watch some Lifetime and let them dry naturally all day to skip the crappy night's sleep.  As the curls keep their bounce after a night's sleep (without wrapping my hair-I haven't figured out how to do that yet!) 

After much harassment from my friends, here's two after pictures.  These pictures were taken after a couple nights sleep on the curls,
