This week is CEP 810, our project is to choose something we’ve always wanted to learn how to do and learn the skill using strictly internet resources such as youtube videos and online how to posts.
I have a LOT of hair. I’m getting married in July so I’ve been growing it out so that I could keep it down for the wedding but in everyday life, it’s making me crazy. Seriously, I can’t wait to chop it all off as soon after the wedding as possible. Part of the reason it makes me so crazy is because I have no idea how to do anything with it. I usually just put some product in it and hope for the best, but I struggle to do anything else. I always feel ten times more put together when someone else makes my hair look nice and I’ve experimented with a curling iron but it always ends in an epic fail. For my project I am going to learn how to curl my hair, and hopefully gain some hair skills along the way.
When I started my search for resources, I realized just how many videos and tutorials are out there. The first resource I found was Sam Villa, a beauty website that also sells products. The video was 6 Ways to Curl Your Hair, and I had no idea how to do any of them! The video is quick moving, but was useful because he explains how to prep hair, how to start the curl and lots of details. It also has written steps with images below to further help novices like me.
I also found tons of online pictures with step by step images and videos with different tutorials and types of curls.
My next step is going to be experimenting and narrowing it down! I think it’s going to take a lot of practice but I’m excited to finally learn this skill and hopefully nail it and start to feel more put together from the head down!
Exploring Tech for Little Minds 
I look forward to learning from you! I resort to the “messy bun” way too often and could use some ideas.
