My hair is super thin, naturally straight and has a hard time holding curl.. Is there any way to get good waves that hold?

The top styler! It does wonders. They're the shells that heat up and you curl your hair with your finger and clip it on. When it cools just take if off. It's amazing!

Absolutely :D
I like to do this at bedtime, so I have nice curls in the morning. Really cuts down on how long it takes to do my hair!
Before bed, if your hair is dry spray some texture cream and leave-in conditioner in your hair and brush it through. Twist your hair into a bun, secure with bobby pins or hair elastics. The conditioner will moisturize and get your hair pliable, and the texture cream helps thin hair hold shape better. When it dries during the night, it'll dry in a curl. Just undo pins and elastics, finger brush into the shape you want and voila! Beautiful, bouncy curls. If you want tighter or smaller curls, do the same technique at even spots through your hair in smaller buns.
You can also curl with socks...they are commonly refered to as sock buns. Take a sock and cut the toe off. Roll it up from one end so it ends up looking like a donut. put your hair in a pony tail and put it through the sock bun. Then roll the bun and your hair up together. IF you youtube "sock bun" you can find LOTS of videos and techniques to this, and you can find the one that works best for you and your hair length - you need medium to long hair for this.

Yes!
there are several ways..
1.) straightner: once your hair is dry, mist it with hairspray. then, get a strand of hair, straighten it about halfway down and then flip it upside down while the hair is still in between the prongs. do this over and over to diff. strands and then mist with hairspray again when you're done (theres youtube tutorials for this, kinda hard to explain with just words
2.) soft rollers: your hair must be damp for this. put the rollers in overnight using directions on the box or your personal touch, spray hair gel or hairspray and then wake up to thick curls!
3.)scrunching: this usually works on short hair a lot better but anyway, after getting out the shower, wait about 20 minutes and then flip your head over and begin literally scrunching your hair but add mousse. then do a second round without moussse, then third round with hairspray(also youtube tutorials on this)
4.) sleep in a french braid when your hair is halfway dry
hope some of these help (:

If you can find some good quality curlers, this will work. Most are cheap and fall out, but some are ok. Some are even comfortable to sleep on, so you just take em out in the morning and don't have to ruin your looks as you sleep!
First get your hair all wet. Get a rounded brush and curl your hair into the brush and hold it there. Next get a blow dryer turn it on hot and fast and push it onto your hair on all spots! Do this on all your hair!(: Good luck!
Also may you please answer my question? It would mean the world! Thanx!(: xox -Jen ;D
