HOW-TO STEPS

1

Prep hair by spraying Biolage Air Dry Glotion from roots to ends on dry hair for a glossy, finished look with a light hold.

2

When hair is halfway dry, apply 2 pumps of Biolage Blowdry Glotion through the hair to protect from heat and then completely blow dry, finishing ends with a round brush.

3

Make sure hair has a distinct center part, and use a boar bristle brush to smooth hair into a sleek, low ponytail. Spray the ponytail with Biolage Complete Control Fast-Drying Hairspray to maintain a frizz-free twisted section. Twist into a low bun securing with bobby pins and use a small toothbrush for detailing around the hairline and nape. Spray hair again to be sure it stays in place.

4

Follow up with Biolage Freeze Fix Humidity Resistant Hairspray to lock in place. Spray hair in smaller sections with low temperature blow dryer to make sure hair stays in place.
