Going Out? Need Easy Long Lasting Curls?
Try this for lots of curl that last throughout the evening. Begin by braiding cornrow braids from perimeter of hairline approximately two to three inches back, using aluminum foil ( made by rolling three sheets of aluminum foil together, creating a perm rod ) with spray gel on dry hair wrapping in a spiral effect. Place under dryer ten minutes on high heat and cool for ten minutes.

Create a Hair Tool Box 
Start with the right tools to create a desired look. The number one complaint of clients is they can not get their hair to style the same way as when they left the salon. Hair designers use foams, gels, spray gels, liquid gels, etc. for a reason. Each product is used as a tool the same way they use scissors, rollers, irons, or a blow dryer. Let's go over some tips for desired looks and recommendations  you might want to make sure you have on hand in your Hair Tool Box!
To Create Volume...If you use a curling iron...
On clean towel dried hair...apply a product designed to create volume. Apply it at the roots of your hair and comb through to the ends (you want more product at toward the scalp than at the ends - this makes the hair "lift") Section off your hair, use curling iron to curl your hair as you would normally. Let hair cool before brushing out. After the hair is completely dry and your style is set, use a stronger holding hair spray to keep the hair in place.

If you blow dry your hair
...
On clean towel dried hair...apply a product designed to create volume. Apply it at the roots of your hair and comb through to the ends (you want more product at toward the scalp than at the ends- this makes the hair "lift") When blow drying, use the high heat setting when the hair is damp. When the hair is almost dry, use your brush to hold your hair in place and use the cool setting to "set" the hair. After the hair is completely dry and your style is set, use a stronger holding hair spray to keep the hair in place.
