- 1Step 1 of 2
- Hair is sectioned at the crown, creating a point at the nape.
- Using a comb as a guide, make a strong, slightly concave outline working up to the occipital bone.
- Layer the back sections into a curved line working with the head shape and using the previously cut outline as a guide. Every subsequent section should be over-directed to the first to maintain more length in the perimeter. Repeat in front of the ear.
- Create horizontal layers starting at the crown, overlapping slightly with each subsequent section.
- Repeat for the front section and over-direct the first section to keep weight through the fringe.
- Blow-dry hair and cut freehand to perfection.
- 2Step 2 of 2
- Add a little cream moisturizer to control frizz and fly-aways.
- Curly hair should be blow-dried in order to control the hair’s shape by using a large round brush.
- Thin, straight hair, needs a volume spray before blow-drying and a light hairspray to keep the hair in place.
- Flat-iron hair in sections, gently curve the iron under at the very end to make a sloping curl that angles into the face. Spray lightly with a flexible-hold hairspray.
- For more shape and control try using a firm styling foam or gel.
- Finish with a light holding spray followed by either oil sheen spray or a few drops of shine serum.
