So after I washed my hair on saturday I decided to try to do waves.  I braided my hair in two braids and rolled up the ends in rags.  I used paper towels, actually, and held them in place with scrunchies.  For such a crude method, I got a pretty decent result.  Normally I would say my hair is just wavy enough to look tangly and gross ten minutes after I brush it, but this is wavy enough beyond that to look decent all day.  The waves relaxed slowly over the day.  My boss at work commented on it; she said, "oh, you curled your hair all pretty!"  

thanks, that's good advice!

I agree with your boss.. your curls are pretty!
