1. On pre-cleansed hair apply smoothing products and dry the hair as smooth as possible. Not completely straight, but keep the air flow of the blow dryer moving down so as not to encourage frizzing in the hair

2. Section the hair into 4 sections (2 in back, 2 in front) for control.

3. Take larger sections approximately 2 inches wide at the scalp. Begin twisting the hair into large twists. Starting in the back of the head.

4. Hold the twists in place and heat with a blow dryer. While heated spray with hairspray to help set the shape.

5. Let the hair cool.

6. Continue twisting, heating, spraying with hair spray, and cooling the hair until the entire head is done.

7. Finish by spraying with hair spray- keep the can 10-12” away from hair, let a mist of spray hit the hair, this will keep your hair natural feeling but help hold the shape of the wave.

Tips & Warnings
