How I do my hair!

Hello everyone!
Since it has been a while since I've done a post about my personal vintage style, I thought I should do another post on my hair and how I set it. Especially because it is a bit different from the last hair post I did; my hair is longer than it was and I am using 1¼" pink rollers, rather than 1" black ones.
I didn't use any products other than Pantene shampoo & conditioner and Tresemme hairspray.

I rolled them all backward.

 Brush!
If you have an idea of how you want your hair to look, keep in mind it may have ideas of it's own. If it's being temperamental, just let it do what it wants and work with it.
When I like the way a wave or curl is moving, I hold it with a clip and spray.
Then I remove the clip when the hairspray is dry or when I'm finished styling.
Spray!
And done!
Happy rolling!
