Products Used

HOW-TO STEPS

1

Start by mixing a product cocktail of Aquage’s Transforming Paste, Defining Gel, Silkening Oil Treatment and a little Finishing Spray for a good hold (minus the flaking). Work the mixture through the back of the hair towards the front.

2

While the hair is still damp, use a T3 Fit Dryer on medium heat or lower to lock in the product and style.

3

Work more product towards the front of the head, pulling the sides back and clipping with setting clips. The result: a slight yet beautiful wet texture.

4

Tie the hair back into a perfectly imperfect loose bun with some free strands sticking out for added affect. Style a few face-framing pieces to soften the look.

5

Polish with a little more Defining Gel and apply low heat with the T3 Dryer to set everything into place.
