School mornings are basically a speed-run challenge. Your goal: get them fed, dressed, and out the door before the universe collapses. This routine keeps curls cute without life falling apart.
The 5-Minute Formula
1. Assess the Situation (10 seconds)
Are we dealing with:
- flat curls?
- frizz?
- bedhead?
- total apocalypse?
2. Spritz + Scrunch (1 minute)
Use water or water + leave-in mix.
3. Smooth With a Little Curl Cream (1 minute)
Focus on mid-length and ends.
4. Re-Curl a Few Strands (30 seconds)
Twirl any flattened curls around your finger.
5. Gel + Scrunch (1 minute)
Light gel keeps definition during school chaos.
6. Dry Fast (90 seconds)
Options:
- cold blow-dryer blast with diffuser
- car heater (yes, it works)
- air-dry and hope for the best (surprisingly fine)
