Products Used
How-To:
- Blow-dry using the amika Accomplice Blow-Dryer, then use the amika Plus Size Body Mousse with the amika Haute Mess Texture Gloss for added texture.
- Then, use the amika Antidote Flat Iron in alternating, long-rotating motions to create the waves.
- Once the waves are created, do not brush through. Instead, pull curls apart using your fingers and the Haute Mess Texture Gloss.
- Then, spray the entire head heavily with the amika Un.done Volume and Matte Texture Spray.
