HOW-TO STEPS

1

Starting by cleansing the hair, Danielle used SexyHair® Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner to create a clean and voluminous base. After towel-drying the hair, Danielle gently applies Tri-Wheat Leave-In Conditioner which doubles as a detangles to prep for styling.

To lift the roots Danielle applies Shine Show Blow Out Spray for heat protection and added shine. Using a large round brush, Vanessa’s hair was blow-dried to straight to prep for extensions.

“Next, I sectioned the hair and began adding The Hair Shop Pro 7 Clip-In Extensions 22″ in 1B with body and wave from the nape upwards, stopping at the occipital bone,” Danielle says.

Then, applying Polished Up Pomade to smooth the hair to pull it back into a chic half-up, half-down style. Danielle says this look is, “Reminiscent of the ’90s supermodel era.”

5

To build body and shape, Danielle curled the hair and set each section with rollers to cool and hold their shape. For lasting volume and bounce, she applies So Touchable Hairspray to lock in flexibility. 

6

After removing the rollers, she gently brushed the curls out with a wide tooth comb for a soft look.

To finish, Danielle used Spray and Play Harder for max hold and Smooth and Seal for a glossy finish to ensure the hair looked stunning and stayed in place for the entire event.
