How to get this look

Watch Video > Share Print

  • 1) To lock in strength and manageability, wash and condition with Root Awakening® Shampoo and Conditioner for at least a week prior to styling.
  • 2) For frizz-free texture, use a small curling iron. Holding the curling iron vertically, wrap a tiny section of hair around the iron. Hold for a two-second count, then release. Repeat the process all around the head. (Note: it is not necessary to use the clamp on the iron.)
  • 3) Create an anchor at the crown of the head by using the end of a tail-comb to carve out a small, round section of hair. Secure the ponytail with an elastic band.
  • 4) To create the illusion of dramatic volume, build a “nest” by pulling the ponytail through a wire-framed cone.
  • 5) Loosely pull and pin sections of hair into the nest, working your way around the entire head.
  • 6) To add eye-catching definition, wrap a long, leather band around the head, securing and shaping your unique updo.
  • 7) To finish your look and achieve lasting hold, use a John Frieda® hairspray, such as as Frizz-Ease® Moisture Barrier Hairspray.
