if you own a straightening iron 1" you can get these curls. Put aside a few days before to practice its hard to get used to but works amazing when you get the hang of it.

Take small sections of your hair.

Place the iron at the root of your hair, while holding the ends with the other hand.

flip the iron in your hands so that the side of the iron that was facing outward is now facing your head.

pull the iron through your hair and you will have a curl.

strange but it works great and will last hours ( when i was trying to learn to do it and messed up id try and restraighen the hair but you just cant get kink of the curls out.

I use a chi flat iron. The directions are confusing i know if you want to see how to do it you can go to you tube and search how to straighten your hair with a chi flat iron. You will find a lot of people showing you how.

Good Luck. Looks great once you get the hang of it!

update: try borrowing a striaghtener from a friend. You can get big curls with a large iron but they will just fall out by the end of the night and you will have straight hair with an undercurl at the end. Or use a smaller iron and brush the curls out with fingers it will start to fall out into bigger curls and then you hairspray them so they will stay in for the whole night.

It will work best if you get a large curler and just curl big sections. If you don't have time to get one I think you could use a straightener and when you twist it just dont do it tight.
