    Use a Do-Z comb, take about a medium sized section of your hair and
    roll the hair onto a Sassy curler/roller. Continue this process until all of the hair towards the back of your head is in the Sassy curlers/rollers. When you have finished this process, only your bangs should be loose.

  3. Step 3

    Spritz the rollers/curlers and hair with hairspray and let sit for 15-20 minutes to continue the drying process and to set the curls.

  4. Step 4

    Once dry, remove the Sassy curlers/rollers.

  5. Step 5

    Starting at the crown area, take a section and give it a light
    back-comb with the DO-Z comb, continue this process with all sections.

  6. Step 6

    Now you will take a section, pull it up to the back of the head, with the curls of the hair dangling outward, use a bobby pin to secure the section to your head. Continue this process with all of the sections.

  7. Step 7

on 1/2/2009 Fantastic instructions, it's always fun to get dolled up with the little extra of a special up-do ~ especially if we can do it ourselves or have a "hair" party with our girlfriends before a night on the town :)
