I wish I could help people in this thread but alas I am a dud when it comes to hair.
does anyone know how to achieve this look?

I'm guessing a... crimper or something? I don't own one though.and my hair is terribly long and straight, ugh. I love this look though, it's just under the amount of crimp that would put in the 90s.
These big loose waves. I can't figure it out. Do I use a curling iron or rollers? I've checked out tutorials and how-to's online but no luck. I want to recreate this exact same hairstyle. I don't want "curly" hair or beach waves. I want this. Any suggestions or ideas? TIA.

! But what is a victory roll?

I love braids, but I always have to have someone else do it. A decent ponytail is the only thing I can do, but my head hurts like hell when I wear a ponytail so eventually I will have to figure something out. Another problem is that I have super thick and heavy hair and there aren't many (if any?) hair stylings that will do with that kind of hair. I have even had curls done professionally and my hair got straight within minutes.
