How-To:

1. Blow-dry the hair straight, then rough dry with cold air.

2. Curl the hair using a 1¼ curling iron and alternate directions by layer. Give the ends a slight bend for continuity but don’t curl them. 

3. Shake out the hair while applying Virtue® Perfect Ending Split End Serum throughout. “It adds a slight amount of shine and gives the waves a little separation without being greasy,” shares Buddy.

4. Then, to give her strands added body and fullness, finish by spraying Virtue® Refresh Dry Shampoo at the root.

2. For the ultimate undone texture, do this…

How-To:

1. Wave the hair in alternating directions using a 1¼-inch curling iron.

2. Break up the waves by shaking out her strands while applying Virtue® Perfect Ending Split End Serum.

3. Then, apply a generous amount of Virtue® Texturizing Spray from the roots to the midlengths. “The beautiful thing about Virtue’s Texturizing Spray is that it’s totally lightweight and buildable,” says Buddy. “I can use a whole can and it still wouldn’t feel too gritty.”

4. Finish by applying Virtue® Finale Shaping Spray for touchable hold and soft shine.

3. For the sleekest of strands, do this…

How-To:

1. Prep wet hair with Virtue® One For All 6-In-1 Styler, then blow-dry her hair as straight as possible.

2. Apply Virtue® Perfect Ending Split End Serum, then part the hair down the middle and straighten her strands with a flat iron.

3. Then, apply a quarter-sized amount of Virtue® Polish Un-Frizz Cream from roots to ends and run a comb through the hair.

Pro Tip: Use a sponge to apply Polish Un-Frizz Cream to tame flyaways without disrupting the hair too much.
