Tools and materials:
1. Apply heat protectant
Start by applying a heat protectant to your hair. Spray it evenly throughout your hair.
2. Brush your hair
Next, brush your hair to evenly distribute the heat protectant and to help your hair dry quickly.
3. Curl your hair
There is no strict way to do this. The goal is to achieve a messy, natural look.
Take 1 to 2-inch sections of hair. Then wrap each section around the curling wand. Alternate the direction of your curls: curl some sections away from your face and others towards your face.
This variation will create a more natural and voluminous look.
4. Sectioning (optional)
If your hair is long, you might find it helpful to section your hair.
To do this, part your hair horizontally just above your ears. Clip the top section up. Curl the bottom section first, then release the top section and curl it. For shorter hair, this step might not be necessary.
5. Curl the bottom layer
For the bottom layer, take thicker sections of hair and wrap them around the wand. This doesn't take as much time and still provides a nice curl.
6. Curl the top layer
Continue curling the top sections as needed. Remember, the goal is to achieve a mix of big voluminous curls.
7. Check for any missed sections
After curling all your hair, use a mirror to check the back and sides of your head. Curl any sections that you may have missed.
8. Apply hairspray
To hold the curls in place, use hairspray. Lift sections of your hair and spray underneath as well for better hold.
9. Let your hair cool
Allow your hair and the hairspray to cool down. This helps set the curls.
10. Break up the curls
Once your hair has cooled, use your fingers to gently break up the curls. This adds volume and makes the curls look more natural and bouncy.
11. Apply hair oil
Take a small amount of hair oil and rub it between your hands. Apply it to your hair, focusing on the ends to smooth and hydrate them.
12. Fluff and finish
Fluff your hair and shake it out to add more body. This final step enhances the bouncy look of your curls.
Bouncy curls
You're done! This entire process should take about 15 minutes. The curls will soften up over time, giving you beautiful second-day curls that are even more voluminous and natural-looking.
