3. Follow instructions on the packaging and apply a small amount of Slick Works from middle through ends of hair.
4. Blow dry hair almost completely.
5. Use medium round brush to finish blow drying throughout the crown area and back roots for volume. Wrap large sections around brush, hit with hot air from blow dryer, spray with a little hairspray then let cool before removing brush. Continue up the head, layer by layer.
6. For the bang area, blow dry from left to right and forward across the forehead a little.
7. Tease hair in the crown area and use your fingers to mess up the curls in back.
8. In the bang area, pull the flat iron from left to right and down the side of the face. Pull the flat iron almost straight off the ends, barely curling under as you go.
9. Spray the completed style with finishing hairspray to control fly away hairs.
10. Apply a small amount of Gloss Drops in the ends of the hair avoiding the roots or your hair will look greasy and limp.
