Take 1 inch sections- with flat iron (or curling iron) curl until entire head is curled. I don't like the "crunchy" look so I just spray the Finishing Spray after I finish each section very lightly. With fingers or brush, brush through curls to loosen. Finish with Stay Frim Finishing Spray. |

| Day Six |
Yesterday was a big wedding day for me.
I got the pleasure to do hair for a bride during the day
(I will post pictures as soon as I get them!)
and then got to attend another wedding in the evening.

When I got home ... I realized that I didn't take a picture of the back.
Excuse the outfit change.
For those of you who don't know,
I do bridal hair during wedding season.

| Faux Bob (Now I know I've been dying to grow my hair out. But I love the idea of a sassy 'Faux Bob' for a formal event.) Products Used: It's a Ten Leave-In Conditioner Moroccan Oil Luminous Hairspray Tools Used: Dryer + Flat Iron (or Curling Iron) + Bobby Pins How-To: Apply leave-in conditioner to towel dry hair. Follow instructions from Day Quatre (see above) on how to achieve wave. Using bobby pins, tuck back of the hair and pin. Keep it loose & messy, you don't want things too perfect or else it will turn into an up-do. After back is tucked and pinned, pull pieces out to give a messy look. Finish with Luminous Hairspray. |

| Day Sept- 1 week, Hoorah! Le Poof- Move over Snooki! Products Used: Hempz Couture Haute Mess Dry Shampoo Pureology Strengthening Control Hairspray Tools Used: Flat Iron (or Curling Iron) + Bobby Pins How-To: I loved the way my curls looked this morning from yesterday's Faux Bob. So I decided to keep them. I used a dry shampoo to make sure my hair didn't look oily. Is is me, or is dry shampoo the best thing since sliced bread? Apply dry shampoo to roots. With flat iron (or curling iron) re-touch curls that have loosened. Take section from middle eyebrow to middle eyebrow about 3 inches wide. Push hair forward until poof height is achieved. Secure in place with by sliding unopened bobby pins into poof. Run fingers through curls and spray with Strengthening Control Hair Spray. |
