GIVEAWAY!! - Soft Spikes!

If you loved the way B's Beautiful Braidlocs looked after we curled them with the Soft Spikes in yesterdays post, than this is your lucky day!!!!!  (If you didn't see the review - go back to yesterday's post!  There was a bit of a mixup, so the correct post wasn't on the blog until late last night.)


The lovely people at Soft Spikes are giving away one set of Soft Spikes to TWO of our wonderful readers!


Now if your little girl does not have locs that doesn't mean you can't use Soft Spikes!  You could use Soft Spikes to curl box braids OR it would be really cute to curl the braids that come out of a ponytail or pigtails like this:


Just picture it....Remove the beads and curl all those braids and have the cutest curly pigtails!  OOOooooo....Now I want to try it!

It is possible that you could flat iron your child's hair and then put sections of hair into the Soft Spikes for some big curls.  Kind of a weird idea, taking out the natural curls to put in different curls????  But I bet it would be cute.

And of course, like with any of our giveaways, you can also use them on yourself!  Moms like to do fun things with their hair too, so if you are a mom with locs, slightly curly hair, super kinky hair, or hair as straight as mine, I am sure ANY of you could find something fun to do with the Soft Spikes.  We would LOVE to see what you come up with!

I also look forward to trying the Soft Spikes on little E one of these days, I just haven't gotten around to it yet!  I do believe the Soft Spikes were originally made for curling straight hair, so if you have any children with straight hair in your home, these would also be perfect for you!

So what are you waiting for?  Go get those entries!

But PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE remember to write a SEPARATE comment for EACH thing you do on the list.  If you put all of your entries in ONE comment you are selling yourself short!  Each comment gets a number for our random generator, so you want to get as many comments as possible.

  1. No locs here, but thinking of trying them. I've never seen soft spikes before, but this has definately peaked my interest. I think that we'd try them out for some larger curls in my daughter's hair. Shari....HCnRhisMummy

  2. I have medium length locs and would love to use these in my own hair! I know, selfish. I probably would try them in my daughter's loose hair eventually though. She has great curls and these look like something she can sleep in.

  3. Neither my daughter nor myself have locs, but I have done something similar w/ pipe cleaners in B's hair, w/ 2-strand twists. The curls stayed nicely for a day. I'd like to try the soft spikes in the same way.

  7. My daughter does not have locs, but I think these would be a nice alternative to Flexirods, which I've used on her hair before to great effect!

  32. My daughter and I don't have locs, but I have been toying with the idea of getting sister locs. I would like to try the soft spikes on my two strand twists (which I do often) and later on my daughter's hair when she gets a little older and won't pull them out (she's 14 months old).
