1
Apply hair texturizer to wet or damp hair. Concentrate the product at the roots, then work it through the length of the hair. This mimics the slightly dirty state that allows hair to retain its tousled appearance.
-
2
Scrunch hair. Use your fingers to separate chunks of hair. Or pin long hair up into a single loose bun. Allow hair to air dry or blow dry with diffuser.

Tips & Warnings
The bedhead look works on short hair or long hair, but short hair should be shaped by a stylist.
Skip a day with shampooing hair. The oils in slightly dirty hair make it easier to retain the bedhead look.
The bedhead look does not adapt itself well to very curly or kinky hair.
Do not comb or brush your hair except when using a blow dryer.
