    On the side, roll the hair under and spray each section with Awapuhi Wild Ginger Finishing Spray. In the back, use a brick-laying pattern to avoid any partings. Continue rolling all the rollers under. As you reach the longer lengths—or if more wave is desired— switch to 2-inch rollers.

    Allow all the rollers to cool completely before removing them. For maximum volume, brush the front and the top in the opposite direction that it was rolled. Brush all the hair out completely.
