    Would the lovely C-Dot care to emphasize on this by chance?

    I think I watched a tut on this a while back but it wasn't much help.

    That sounds like a challenge It's really hard to type out, but I have a free afternoon so I'll try and get some pictures happening.

    And thanks, that dress cost £4 and has served me well! I normally wear my hair piled on top of my head with it to counteract the high-neck-large-breast drama going on, haha.
    That was a lucky day, no frizz. Only comes about once a year! ha ha.

    I understand the hair to neckline and bust balancing act! ;0

    Black Dahlia I wish that my hair just did that naturally. I'm so jealous.

    Also in reference to brushing your hair into waves. It really helps if it's set right first. I would either do finger waves or rows of pincurls in alternating directions. When I do rows of pincurls in alternating directions it seems to just brush into that shape naturally. But what you'd want to do is brush it out first just to get the curls to be less crazy. Then you would take your brush (it really should be a boar brush or at the least a natural bristle brush) and comb along with the directions of the wave. If the wave isn't defined enough you could then take some duck bill clips and place them in between your waves and spray some hairspray to help define them. I hope that makes sense.
    Does everybody know how to fingerwave? If people would like I'll make a tutorial on doing them and brushing them out. Fingerwaves are literally paying my bills right now.

    Here you go Zombi.

    I found something I had made for a friend awhile ago and had put on youtube and then taken off. It's really basic and doesn't go into how to do a whole style with fingerwaves, but shows the basic technique. Let me know if that helps you or if it isn't helpful let me know what you don't understand.

    Also that's an unstyled middy in the video that I just left a little longer in the front.
