BEAUTIFUL!!!! It's like the perfect hair for any going out party and any important event.LOVE IT!!!

SOFT SEXY CURLS: This style features spiral curls in medium layers all over the head. The bangs are smooth and off to the side to draw attention to the eyes. Volume in the top adds a little edge to the style and fun highlights add sparkle. So hot!

Suitable for:

Face shapes: oval, square, round, heart, diamond

Hair texture: fine, medium or coarse

Hair density: thin, average to thick

Styling:

Maintenance: high

Time: 20-30 minutes

Techniques: Blow dry and 1” curling iron

Products: volumizing mousse for fine or medium hair, smoothing gel for coarse hair, finishing hairspray, shine spray

Styling Steps:

1. Apply mousse or gel according to hair type.
2. Part hair above the right eyebrow.
3. Blow dry hair completely.
4. Section hair into 2” horizontal layers.
5. Starting in the back, take a 1-2” section off the bottom layer and smooth it out. Wrap hair onto curling iron from ends to scalp in a spiral motion. Release after 20-30 seconds and let cool.
6. Complete bottom layer, then spray lightly with hairspray. Alternate direction of curls.
7. Move up a layer and repeat the process, misting completed layers with hairspray.
8. When you get to the top, roll most of the curls away from the face.
9. For bangs, start at the roots on the right side and slide the curling iron from right to left and under at the same time. Curl other face framing pieces toward the face.
10. DO NOT BRUSH THROUGH CURLS! Brush through curls gently using your fingers once all layers have been curled then spray completed style with hairspray.
11. Tease hair in the crown area for extra volume.
12. Follow directions on the shine spray and mist a small amount over ends, making sure to cover roots with your free hand to avoid getting product in them. Too much product or product in roots will make hair look greasy and limp.
