Styling Steps:
1. Apply mousse or gel according to hair type.
2. Part hair above arch in left eyebrow in a fine zigzag pattern.
3. Follow instructions on the package label and apply a small amount of Round Trip.
4. Blow dry hair completely.
5. Section hair in 2 inch horizontal layers around the head.
6. Starting in the back on the bottom, take a 1-2 inch section out of the layer and spray lightly with hairspray. Wrap hair around curling iron from ends to scalp. Release after 20-30 seconds, depending on hair type.
7. Complete the bottom layer, mist very lightly with hairspray, then move up a layer. Continue this process for each layer while moving up the head. Alternate the direction of the curls.
8. When you get to the top of the head, curl away from face. When you get to the face framing hair, curl toward the face.
9. For bangs, slide curling iron from left to right and across the forehead.
10. DO NOT BRUSH THROUGH THE CURLS. Spray the completed style with finishing hairspray to lock in curls and add shine. If any curls are too thick, separate gently with fingers.
11. Mist hair lightly with shine spray, making sure you cover roots with your free hand. This product will make your hair look greasy and limp if you use too much or get it in the roots so follow the manufacturers’ instructions closely.
