[1. Dry Shampoo 2.Heat Protectant 3.Hair Spray
4.Brush (any kind) 5.Curling Wand]
-----------------------------------------------------------
1. Brush out the hair to prevent tangles
2. To add volume, spray dry shampoo in the roots.
* this is
optional
3. Spray heat protectant generously throughout the hair
to help prevent damage over time
4. Section off your hair into 4 layers This will help to
keep the process organized.
5. Take about an inch of hair and wrap around the
wand AWAY
from the face in a downwards motion.
Hold for about 8 to 12 seconds
Since we’re going for tighter
and more bouncier
curls, hold the hair for a little longer.
6. Release the curl and scrunch in your hand.
This locks the
curl in place and gives it extra volume.
7. Repeat all over your head.
Tip: every once in a while,
take a ½ inch section of
hair and curl. This will vary the size of the curls.
Remember that you don’t want to
hold them as long as
the others since it is a smaller section of hair.
8. After each layer of hair, hairspray, scrunch and continue
letting down sections of hair and curling.
Tip: when wrapping pieces close to
the face,
make them tighter.
9. When complete, tug gently at the tips to curls to
separate the curls and for extra volume.
Note: This will simply separate them
while keeping
them intact.
10. Lastly, hairspray all over and scrunch.
This will help define the curls.
11. Style bangs as normal. I simply did a side poof and
added a pretty headband. Enjoy!

*To make your curls another day, wrap in a low bun while you
sleep. In the morning, they will have fallen to huge voluminous Victoria’s Secret
waves.
Oh! I love the concept of putting your hair in a bun to keep the curls! I curl my hair quite frequently and I'm always bummed that I can't keep them for another day. Brilliant! I do have a question though, what style of bun works best? Just a simple ballerina bun?
ReplyDeleteWell Lauriaffle, a low bun as the nape of your neck works perfectly. This will let your hair soften to big waves. Simply unwrap, hairspray and scrunch in the morning and you are good! Another trick that works AMAZING is brushing out the curls with a paddle brush( as shown above) completly. This will remove any tangles and make your hair seem flat. Don't worry, the curls do come back as huge waves while you sleep. In this trick, there is no need to wrap your hair in a bun. When you wake up, simply brush again, hairspray ans slightly scrunch to bring back some more wave and you are set!I hope this helps and if you have any hair requests leave them below. :)
