Pincurl Set

I have been experimenting with my hair for some time now, trying to learn the art of pincurling and trying different hot sets and foam rollers, deciding what length is best for me, what flatters my facial features and what doesn't, etc.  So, as I was planning for some upcoming posts, I thought it might be fun to share my hair adventures -- the good, the bad, and the ugly -- with you guys.  Today I want to share a pincurl set with you.  The lighting in my bathroom isn't the greatest, but I think you will be able to get the jest of it.  Plus, I have been sick and didn't sleep well, so overlook the tired eyes with bags.

Here is my set, after I slept on it all night.  It was a wet set, meaning I put it up into pincurls while my hair was wet.  I parted my hair on the side with two rows of three stand up curls on top and then the rest of the hair rolled toward the back.

On the light side, the curls were rolled forward, and then the back was rolled any which way.  I always have trouble with the back so I tend to do whatever I can get it to do.

This next photo shows what it looked like after I took it down and just ran my fingers throughout the curls.  I rather like it this way.

Here it is after it has been brushed out.  It could have used some more brushing but I was running late for work, so I just went with what I had.  Also, just so you know, my hair is just below shoulder length, so the curls pulled it up to about my chin.

Just as a side note, the lipstick I am wearing is Revlon's Cherries in the Snow.  It comes off as a rather fuchsia pink on me.  I like it, but not with my red sweater.

Well, there you have it.  I think I prefer it laying in the loose curls before I brushed it out.  What do you ladies think?
