Angel Spun, I'm sorry it didn't turn out quite like the pic.  I suggest trying a sock bun.  You've mentioned how fine your hair is, so perhaps using a knee high nylon close to your hair color would do the trick?  I think it would be lighter than a sock and give you the volume for the bun.  What do you think?

waiting4longlocks, thank you!  I'm loving my curls these days, myself.

wow, your hair is just beautiful.  those styles are all pretty. i'll give the last two a try when my hair gets a few more inches.

Thanks, AmandaC, I'm so happy you got so many compliments on your do!  I did want to know!!

Thanks, roomtogrow!  I hope you'll post some pics when you give them a try!  I loved having hairstyle goals.

Thanks, Yaku!  I hope you'll post pics, too.  I'd love to see your curls.
