This is perfect!!! Thanks 😍. I'm new to the TWA crew and I have a sponge. Most days are hit and miss. One major thing I am doing wrong is my hair is usually wet. Definitely gonna give this a try before dinner tonight.

My son and I both have sponge styles...but it works better for us when our hair is damp. We use a curl gel (can't remember the name right now...ran out a lil while ago) or aloe vera gel. When I've done it on my dry hair like this, I don't get much definition at all. To each his or her own. Yours came out really nice!

Monica Rance It worked a lot better on dry hair. However, my hair is thinner in the front and it really exposed too much of my scalp. I also experienced breakage in that same area and my hair stood up more like spikes. I really didn't care for that look on me. The back looked nice, but overall this tool is just not for me. I'm glad I gave it a try on dry hair before getting rid it though.🙂

I may have to pick this up. As I'm still in the TWA phase of life and although I use curl activators from time to time. I still feel like I don't get quite the definition I'm after to really call what my hair looks like a true "style". So this would be awesome. Be interesting to see if it can grab some of my more straighter hairs and put them in formation as well for me, lol.
