Completing the Curled Short Hair Style

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Lauren, and on behalf of expert village, I'm here to discuss short, curly locks with you. Now that we have just the back remaining in order to complete this, what you want to do is take very small sections because there isn't much hair. You just want to add that little bit of curl going in. And I'm going to hide the pins with the hair that's lying flush against her head. You are going to separate it and kind of piece it out to fill in those little areas that you have. If you need to, a good way to make a little bit of hair go farther is to back comb it. If you back comb it, you actually make it wider and separate it. You see the difference between that and then this little section. If you look, this one is a little bit more flimsy. As soon as you get in there, and do your little back combing, you widen up that curl, which is going to help continually filling those spots on shorter, curly hair. I'm just going to kind of lift this. I'm going to push the ponytail flush against her head. And already, although I've only pieced one piece, which is this one, and she's already forming on this side. So go through, do your little back combing. In this, you don't have to go crazy; your not looking to get volume, you're looking to just simply get that curl separated a little bit more, and spread it out a little bit more so that it's a little bit easier for you to work with, and a little bit easier for you to adjust, and keep those areas from spreading out and having a gappy up-do. I'm just going to push this to the side of the up-do. You can see, it dragged this little piece right over to that side. You don't even have to actually form the curl. You can let this little area hang a little bit lower. The more you let your length stay and show off that curl that we have already done, the better off it's going to be when it comes to filling in gaps. Separate. You want to maintain the style of the look, so you will want to form some of those lateral curls. Take your spray and start kind of piecing them out. Fan them, if you may, as you spray. And you can see already, we've only worked on the one ponytail, yet her hair is a lot fuller in this area. Once we integrate this one into it, you're going to see, it's going to be a nice, full, up-do. "
