How to Get Your Waves Back

Scrunching hair creates instant texture.

To put life back into wavy hair that has become limp and weighed down, apply curling mousse and hairspray and scrunch the hair while giving it a blast with a hair dryer diffuser. This allows thick and fine hairstyles to look lush and healthy.

Things You'll Need

• Shampoo
• Conditioner
• Towel
• Curling mousse
• Pump hairspray
• Hair dryer
• Hair dryer diffuser

Instructions

1. Wash hair with shampoo and conditioner and rinse thoroughly. Towel dry hair and squeeze out excess water to prevent frizzy hair.

2. Shake head vigorously. Apply curling mousse all over hair. Massage mousse into roots with fingertips.

3. Spray large sections of hair with pump hairspray. Scrunch hair with the hands. Continue until all sections of hair are sprayed and scrunched.

4. Attach a diffuser onto the barrel of the hair dryer. Flip the hair forward over the head and blow-dry the hair upside down. Scrunch hair with one hand, while blow-drying with the other. This creates tiny, curly waves in shorter hair and larger waves in longer hairstyles.
