"Out of sheer boredom with my pin straight hair (and lack of air conditioning in my apartment), I decided to forego the blow-drying process this morning and instead opted to go for the scrunchy look. First, I ran gel through my towel-dried hair, then I doused my head with L&amp;#039;Oreal Pumping Curls spray. After scrunching each and every last strand, I was set.  I had that perfect summery, beachy look\u2014finally! I was so impressed with my styling techniques that I had to check out my new look as soon as I got to work. But when I looked in the mirror, I saw that my hair was back to its boring, straight self! What could have possibly happened in the 20-minute subway ride that completely killed my wavy locks? After an unsuccessful attempt to revive my non-existent curls with water, I gave up, throwing my hair into a messy ponytail.  I have been attempting the scrunchy look ever since I fell in love with Britney Spears&amp;#039; wavy hair a few years ago (pre-head shave . . . during the  I&amp;#039;m a Slave for You  era.) I&amp;#039;ve seriously tried every curling mist and wave-enhancing spray on the market, from drugstore faves like Aussie to costly bottles of Frederic Fekkai and Oscar Blandi. Once, I even begged my hairdresser for a body perm, but she refused saying that my hair wouldn&amp;#039;t be able to undergo the chemicals from the perm since I dye my hair. There has to be some amazing product out there than can transform my hair into wavy beach hair, right? Or maybe there&amp;#039;s some secret trick that I&amp;#039;m unaware of. If you have any advice please fill me in! Until then I&amp;#039;m doomed with hair boredom and frustration\u2026 xo, Niki CG! Intern "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
