​Be Careful What You Wish For - February 2020

I have always wanted a set of heated curlers. I could never afford them or justify the expense. Recently we stumbled across a set in a second hand store.. they are perfect and work perfectly except I have done everything I can to get my hair to curl with these things. Every time I use them, within minutes the curl drops from my hair, regardless of what product I use and how much, whether I use it or not. Yes, I have done it all. I have wasted more money on product than I would ever have done normally, just so I could use this dream machine I have always wanted. Today after an hour of sitting with the curlers in my hair, I removed them and my hair fell flat against my head. Angrily I stuck my head under a tap, picked up a few scrunchies and knotted my hair into three ugly huge messy knots on my head, then I got the hair drier out and dried my hair. You guessed it...curls, beautiful wonderful curls and all it took was a few scrunchies and the hair drier... oh and a little bit of anger at myself for my stupidity at wasting money.
So be careful what you wish for because sometimes it isn't as wonderful as you think it is.
