Have you tried this?

 The sock bun!

I LOVE this thing.

I was over at A Spotted Pony yesterday and spotted her sweet curls and a tutortial on how to get them.  

So I got to work.

I 'borrowed' my hubs' tube sock and cut the toe off.  I found the official vid on the YouthTube aka YouTube.

My naturally 'strubbly' hair took well to it so long as I don't crimp the ends around the sock.  The waves were WAY bigger and softer as a result.

I'm totes doing this from now on, it's SO easy.  Takes me between 15 and 45 seconds to do at night before bed.

 

Happy sock bunning!
