Normally, when you envision a major hair transformation, something along the lines of a Level 1 to platinum blonde, a cut and color that instantly takes 10 years off or waist-length hair chopped into a bob comes to mind. But this curl set makeover is proof that texture can have just as much of an impact!   Kelli Mason (@kelliannmason), owner of Lux The Salon in Midland, Mich., is the stylist behind these #dreamcurls, and she gave us the rundown on how she achieved this incredible makeover! Keep scrolling for the step-by-step breakdown!   (more…)

    Rough-dry with your fingers, overdirecting for maximum volume.

    Mist Surface Curls Finishing Spray on each section for heat protection and soft hold. Then, using a Hot Tools® Professional ½-inch Curling Iron, take 1-inch square sections, and overdirect each section so that the curl sits on the base. Wrap hair around the iron and set with a clip.

    On-base curl.

    In the back, curl in a brick-lay pattern, setting the curls so they sit in between each other. When you get to the high point of the head, curl everything on base and forward.

    After the curls have cooled, let them out and gently pull apart, applying Surface Shift Shaping Wax.

    Backcomb the base lightly on the underside of each section. Then, using a wide-tooth comb, start in the middle of the strand and push the hair gently toward the base.

    Once you reach the top of each section, lift the hair straight up and push down toward the base using the same technique.
