MARILYN MONROE
Pin curls completed Marilyn Monroe's sexy yet innocent look. Christina Aguilera has been spotted with the same bleached blonde hair with the very same pin curls as of late.

This sweet and sassy style is quite easy for women to attain at home. Spray a curling spray onto dry hair, take small sections of the hair and curl with a curling iron, twist, and pin each twist with roller clips. For women at home who are less adept with a curling iron, get hair about 80 percent dry, then spray a curl-setting lotion all over the head and comb it through to the ends of the hair. Then take small sections of hair, curl them tightly, and pin to the roots of your hair. Let the curls set for at least an hour, if not more. When hair is set, take out pins, and shake curls out lightly.

How To Create Pin Curls
Quick Tip

This technique is really easy to do and was very popular during the forties and fifties.
Wash hair and allow to dry to about 90 percent.

Decide on where you want the majority of curl. For a really curly look, you can create curls all over the head, or choose sections that frame the face.

Choose small sections of hair that can easily be wound around the finger.

Secure curl by criss-crossing two bobby pins across each curl.

If hair dries before you have completed all the pin curls, mist with water as required.

When curls are completely dry, gently remove the pins and either loosen the curl with the fingers or for a look straight out of the forties, use a comb which will result in a froth of waves.

Ronette rules!!! Im gonna try this, it sounds easy...

redken's clear moisture leave in conditioner is a good idea to rub into your locks before winding them and securing them with bobby pins. Since my hair has been cut into short curls recently, my stylist at Toni&Guy showed me how to to it at home.
