Pretty hair is just getting easier and easier to achieve on our own without a peck of talent, thanks to clever styling aids such as the Goody Spin Pins, Mini Spin Pins and Bun Spiral. Oh, and these soft blue-and-pink things.
The Goody Summer Wave Rollers (above, $11.99/15 pk) are sleep-on-’em friendly, and, depending on how agreeable your hair is, can be used on dry hair sans product, and sans blowdryer, too.
For extra hold, you might like to spritz hair with something like Bumble & bumble Setting Lotion before popping the rollers in. Or you can dampen the sponges before wrapping hair around them. Then try a quick once-over with your blowdryer, do your makeup, and take the rollers out.
Here’s the video how-to, plus a very quick change-up ’do.
And if you want to add extra sparkle to your hair, how about these little crystal-topped spiral pins from the Goody Luxe collection? They’re Goody Luxe One-Stone Spin Pins ($4.49/6 pk).
Ideal to dress up an updo, or to wear for maybe a beach wedding, hmm?
Goody hair accessories are available at Loblaws, Walmart and Pharmaplus. Video and accessories shot with a Fujifilm Finepix F70EXR digi cam. Music, Go! by Ash Koley (btw, lead singer, Ash, wears the most fantastic red lipstick).

Ok love the wavy look. Thank goodness its back because I do not blow dry once the humidity reaches a certain level. Those rollers look so neat! Will definitely check them out! Now those sparkly spin pins- they were around in the 90s! I remember my eldest wearing them in her “messy up do” in ’97. They are super cute!
I’m quite charmed by this look myself — makes me want to let my hair grow just so I can use the rollers. Would probably have to blowdry my hair first to get it smooth, though… more thought required. *grin*
Where was I in the ’90s that I don’t remember those spin pins? Oh, I know — book publicity.
I love that the “luxe” collection SRP is $2.99. Awesome.
I wonder if that bugs rich people? I once attended a panel discussion on “the new luxury,” a marketing thing on what luxury means in a world in which the word is use to describe a daily Starbucks latte.
so retro… in love! must go buy now.
Look for them in the next couple of weeks at Loblaws, Walmart and PharmaPlus!
I just love this look. Super pretty! Thanks for including the video as well; it was very helpful.
It helps that these are sleep on them overnight friendly, too. I can’t be bothered to do my hair in the morning. I already have makeup and outfit to worry about!
I like the way you think, Arianne! You’ll twitpic when you try the look? Or do a post? I’ll want to see!
Hmmmm where would one buy these?
Loblaws, Walmart and PharmaPlus starting the first week of May :-)
So these should be out by next week? Leave for my wedding next Sunday and would love to grab these before hand.
On another note, I noticed you did a review of Greg May hair architect a while back. Funny enough, I JUST made an appointment at that salon…although with another stylist. :)
I hope they’re out by then! I’ll check with the PR!
I’ve known Greg for years; he’s amazing :-)
They’ll be in stores May 1st; $4.49/6 :-)
That’s wonderful! Thanks for checking for me. Will definitely have to look out for these come Sunday. :)
I’m insanely excited to try these, anything that can be done the night before is right up my alley!
Totally going to check these out!
Just bought the rollers! Obsessed with wavy hair!
I just got them myself; must try! Will you post on your experience?? Want to see!
Yay I don’t have to damage my hair using more heat than needed. I can’t wait to try this look out…usually I section my hair off and twist them into mini buns, do my make up then use a diffuser but the curls look too done up.
this is so cool! i decided i’d stop using heat on my hair in order to save it from more damage lol. i picked these up for a dollar today, what a steal :)
