STEPS
Brush wet hair with the Ceramic+Ion Vent Shaper and find the natural part. Try not to disturb the natural curl in the hair.
Using a blow dryer without a nozzle, blow-dry free hand until hair is 75 percent dry. Lift the hair with your hands to add height, direction and volume.
Starting at the top of the head, use a large HeatPro Thermal Brush and blow dryer with a nozzle to create lift and body. Leave the brush in the hair while it cools to help lock-in curls. Repeat the technique all around the top of the head.
Remove the first brush and flip hair to the opposite side to create volume at the roots. Continue like this as you move down the head. Use a Double Clip to keep dried sections away from wet hair as you work around the head.
Use a small HeatPro Thermal Brush with small sections of hair to create waves. Leave the brushes in the hair and repeat all around the crown.
Remove all brushes and tousle hair with your hands. Add styling product and manipulate the hair with your hands to create desired texture.
