when teasing hair it works best to wash it and while its still wet apply some texturizing cream. and then blow dry upside down. (keep in mind you want it messy!!!!) it helps ALOT to spray it with aquanet or your choice of hairspray before teasing it.... and then you tease it and spray it again.... (if your hair still moves when you headbang your not using enough hairspray.)((it should all move in one giant piece if it does....)) :] -
