Getting Dreamgirls Hair
And it just so happens that this is the hair we're seeing in Dreamgirls, Beyonce's new film. Perfect timing for me to indulge my love of big. I also got my hair cut the other day and was chatting to my hairdresser about what I wanted. I explained I didn't want it blow dried poker straight and she suggested adding some rollers for extra volume - I immediately agreed. Oh yeah!
She rolled up about 5 or 6 thick sections on the top of my head into wondrous big fat velcro rollers, spritzed on some hairspray and left it to set for a few minutes. She came back, removed the rollers and voila! I had a 60's do! V pleased was I.

So I decided I needed to get some rollers so I could indulge this look at home. Now, I knew I'd need big rollers - I didn't want corkscrew curls, just gentle shiny looking waves to add volume, and that requires quite a prodigious circumference.
A quick search in Boots turned up a set of nice fat thermo rollers which cost me €9.45 for four. I will be testing these out at the weekend and will report my findings!
