Help with scrunching PLEASE!! need answers asap?

i read in a magazine that u can braid your hair in a bunch of little ones overnight and then in the morning scrunch it and it has a really cool affect. i scrunch my hair alot but i've never braided it beforehand before. my question is should i still wet it a little before scrunching it, or would that defeat the whole purpose of the braids???

    Take a shower before you scrunch because it would help the affect. But if you do wet your hair a little bit, it would take a away all the braids holds. A better way to scrunch is to take shower and split your hair in multiple sections to be scrunch and don't even towel dry them. If your in a hurry, scrunch them while they are wet and blow dry the scrunches. If you have time, let them air dry or sleep on the scrunches.

    braiding works.... if you want something a little quicker with the same effect wash your hair, put some mousse in your hands then run it through the hair. flip your head upside down and scrunch your hair. while your hair is still wet, take small sections (dont part them or it will look aweful, make the sections a little messy) the sections should be about an inch to an inch and a half thick. Twist each section into a tight bun and pin to hold. after your hair is all bunned (you'll kinda look like scary spice from the 90's lol) take a bit of hair spray and spray over the hair. Take your blowdryer and blow dry the buns until the outsides feel dry, or mostly dry. (you still want a bit of dampness to finish) take out the buns. you'll see aweful curls (because the hair will be all clumped together) flip your head upside down and shake the hair loose while scrunching the hair to create more of a curl. style to your liking.

    Scrunching only works if you hair is a little wet, so do the braids and damp the hair then scrunch! Hope that helps!!
