A professional hairdresser has revealed how wrapping her daughter’s hair in socks overnight left her with stunning curls which stayed in place for days.
Lynsey Cleland, 40, from Belfast, Northern Ireland, heard about the styling hack through a client but never believed it would work.
The mother-of-two separated Zienna’s, 6, poker straight hair into four sections and wrapped each part around a sock before leaving it to set overnight.
The following day, the schoolgirl had ‘gorgeous’ waves which stayed in for four days, with Lynsey revealing Zienna was ‘chuffed’ with her hair.

After wrapping her daughter’s hair up for the overnight, the mother-of-two removed the socks to reveal soft waves
Her six-year-old daughter’s hair was saved from heat damage when it was transformed from straight to curly overnight.
She videoed the process for other mothers to try it on February 12.
Lynsey revealed the trick to the hair hack was simple, explaining: ‘It’s just socks and water spray no hairspray or anything.’
‘People were asking me if I sold the socks I used and I was just like, “No they’re just normal socks, nothing special about them”.’

The professional hairdresser revealed she was stunned when a client told her about the top trick while she was at work.
She said: ‘When a client suggested I try it out, I didn’t think it would actually work and look so good.
‘It was simple, I just dampened Zienna’s hair and used four clean socks to create the curls.
‘I left her hair to set overnight and we were both pleasantly surprised in the morning to see her straight hair was curly.

‘Usually when we use a wand or tongs, the curls drop but these ones stayed for about four days.’
The mother-of-two went on to say the easy hair trick had left her daughter feeling incredible.
She said: ‘It looked amazing, Zienna felt gorgeous after – she was chuffed.’

Meanwhile she added that she would likely try the technique in the future in her professional life.

‘Then again, it is that simple – their mummy’s would be able to do it the night before.’
