Start to finish- wet to dry. Fine hair with volume that will last.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Shampoo
• blow dryer
• curling iron or flat iron
• Redken Rootful
• Redken Guts
• Redken Spray Starch
• comb
• Redken Forceful HairSpray

1. Shampoo and do not use conditioner except for the hair longer than past your neck, towel dry.

2. Apply Rootful to the roots of your hair all over your head (about 6 sprays), apply Guts all over(directing toward the middle of your hair), apply Spray Starch (about 3 sprays in crown and top)

3. Tilt your head over and "scrunch" your hair upward toward your scalp, begin using blow dryer to softly dry continuing scrunching and alternate tipping head to each side and upside down(take a break and work on your fringe(bang))

4. When dry smooth ONLY the ends with iron. Hold hair straight out from head while doing this (not down)then back comb behind small sections in crown and slightly less tension while doing it(back combing) in the front. Spray with Forceful hair spray(over style and behind back combed sections), allow to dry and then tilt comb sideways to smooth top.

• humid climates may experience fuller outcome, add some Redken Glass to ends as your 1st product to control.
• a boar bristle brush is great to touch up this style
• Visit the salon for one on one coaching
• make sure your flat iron and curling iron are off when you are finished and are out of the way of children
