STEPS
Prep the hair using amika The Wizard and amika First Base to soften strands and add hold. Comb through and rough dry using amika The Accomplice on low heat and speed.
Once dry, curl and set the hair towards the face using the 1-Inch barrel from amika The Chameleon 5-Barrel Curling Kit. Make sure to pin each section with a pin curl clip.
Once cool, brush out the hair in waves. Apply amika Haute Mess Texture Gloss to each wave and ridge, then pin with a fingerwave clip to hold in place.
Once the hair is set, comb down any flyaways. Use the amika Le Marcel curler to quickly press into each wave and apply accessories.
