HOW TO HAVE THE PERFECT HAIR DAY
BOUNCY CURLS
Start with the right shampoo. If you want natural texture, the secret is to prep your hair before stepping out of the shower. Try a good Moisture & Control Shampoo to minimize volume while strands are wet, then shape your curls by tilting your head forward and scrunching upward.
Apply Nourishing Curls Mousse, Then don't touch! "The more you play with it, the more it frizzes, and you look like a Chia Pet," says stylist David Babaii.
SILKY STRAIGHT
Blow-dry like a pro. Dry your hair starting at your roots with the nozzle facing downward.
"Once your crown air-dries, you lose the chance the add volume or smooth frizz." Boost body.
"Many women with straight hair complain about a lack of volume," explains stylist Paul Norton. "The trick is to use dry shampoo immediately after a blow-dry," adds Peverini. Spray it on your roots, let dry for two minutes, then blast with a dryer. Smooth your crown. "In the first 20 minutes after you finish blow-drying your hair, the root area can become frizzy," cautions Babaii. Try his trick: Clip a gauze pad on either side of your part to absorb the moisture and heat that leads to fuzz.
RUMPLED WAVES
Transform tresses overnight. To wake up with perfect waves, loosely braid dry hair into one-inch-wide plaits starting at your ears, then glide over each one with the Styler iron, and spritz with hair Mist before bed. In the morning, let them loose for tousled texture. Avoid the clamp. The easiest way to avoid dents is to use a curling iron sans clamp. Make waves, not curls. Leave the first few inches of your crown smooth, and begin wrapping sections of hair away from your face around a barrel held horizontally. "This position helps form waves; vertically creates curls," says stylist Michael Dueñas. When in doubt, lower the temperature to 300 degrees, recommends Lopez. "You'll automatically get a loose bend rather than a tight ringlet, and that's what you're going for."
