To prepare the rest of the hair, create a classic roller set using a ¾-inch iron, meticulously pinning each curl section by section. Use Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray on individual sections and all over the head, and allow the curls to set.

After releasing the set, comb the hair on ends gently with a wide tooth comb to preserve the curls, and loosely brush the hair from root to mid head with a brush for a smoother texture.

Spray the whole look once more with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray for a soft, flowing and natural-looking hold.
