Wet Sets are trial and error

I just can't believe how simple wet sets are! You know what I am talking about right? Those foam/sponge rollers your granny always wore to bed? Although they are simple, these little stinkers are deceiving! The sponge will hold in water, keeping the hair damp longer, so they need at minimum overnight to dry! And sometimes it is hard to tell if they are wet, or just simply cold! If you plan to give them a go, do it as early as you can before bed, afternoon would be most ideal, as long as you plan to stay in the rest of the day! Or maybe you are one of those that don't mind going to the grocery store with rollers in, if thats the case, do it whenever! :P I like to use a setting lotion before rolling, since my hair doesnt like to keep curl the setting lotion definitely holds it in. Just be sure to not saturate your hair too damp with the lotion, if you take the rollers out while your hair is damp the curl won't stay! When I first was interested in exploring wet sets, I found an amazing lady who does tutorials on it, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRWbopnJxvI&feature=c4-overview-vl&list=PL6DBD8450DFF85577 <This is the first section of the tutorial, be sure to follow up with her brush out video! She really goes into detail and explains everything so well. There are multiple ways of rolling your hair to achieve different looks, so feel free to play around! Be sure not to TWIST the hair when rolling, make it a smooth flat section as you roll. And tuck those ends nicely! The outcome will be crazy if this isn't done. I also use a thin net type bandana when i sleep so my hair doesn't get frizzy, and in the case that a roller comes un-done, it will stay right where it is :)
Here is a quick snap of my first wet set result, not too shabby!

Please feel free to leave comments, I would love to hear your experiences! xoxo Guys and Dolls!

Cherry Cheesecake?? Is this a food blog?

You may be asking yourself... Whats up with this Cherry Cheesecake? Is this a food blog? The answer is no. Cherry Cheesecake is my pinup name, you can expect to see quite a bit of vintage related experiences and topics to come. Cherry was chosen because of the location we just moved from, Cherry Point North Carolina. Cherry point has a special place in my heart, it truely has been my favorite place to be, the friendships I have made, and did I mention the BEACH is very close to Cherry Point? I love the beach! And Cheesecake, you may be thinking "this lady is just a fattie who loves desserts!" ...well.... I am not going to lie, cheesecake is one of my top 3 fav desserts EVARRR... but thats not what it's about! If you don't have much knowledge on the vintage pinup world,  Cheesecake is a style of photos, VERY CHEESY!! Totally my style ;) . So there ya have it! Cherry Cake for short <3 . I have my own pinup photography business called "Cheesecake Ooh-La-La" which moves around with me, but as of now I am based out of Oak Harbor, WA! Such a beautiful place. You can find my portfolio on my facebook page www.facebook.com/CheesecakeOohLaLa . My adorable husband is a US Marine, hence why I say my businesses move around with me :) . I am also a Scentsy and Velata consultant, as well as a soon to be Grace Adele consultant! Scentsy is my passion, I've always been a candles type girl. I also have 2 Children, and you will meet them in future blog posts, I try to do creative projects with them and will share them here from time to time! I called this my experience because I am here to share with you all great ideas, tips, projects, my life phases (i go through different phases quite a lot and I need to share them with someone!), I hope to give you a laugh once in a while, and a little insight. This blog will be a well-rounded page of everything I love and experience, and I sure hope you will become a fan as well as give me any tips you may have as well! But vintage will be a major role here <3 LOVE TO ALL and can't wait to get started sharing with you!!! <3
