HOW-TO STEPS

    Lucie Doughty loves blue skies.  Growing up in England she didn’t get to see them often, but now living in Los Angeles, California she gets to experience them almost year-round.  Those clear blue skies inspire her, as does the casual vibe of Los Angeles.  “I never take a single day here for granted,” she explains. “I wanted to capture the relaxed L.A. lifestyle, so I put a couple of models on a roof-top in Venice, CA on a beautiful day and used the brilliant blue sky as the background.  The hair is natural, simple, and carefree.”

    Amanda has naturally curly hair. Lucie prepped her hair with Instant Moisture® Daily Shampoo and Daily Treatment.  She then applied The Cream® and Sculpting Foam™ to the hair and carefully blow-dried using a diffuser.  When the hair was completely dry, she broke up the curls with her fingers and then applied a little Dry Wax™ to the ends for some separation. She finished the look with a little Super Clean Spray®.

    Lyndall has naturally fine, color treated hair.  Lucie prepped her hair with Extra-Body Daily Shampoo® and Daily Rinse. She sprayed the hair with Soft Sculpting Spray Gel™ and blow-dried with a 413 brush. When the hair was dry, she took ½ inch square sections and lightly misted them with Freeze and Shine Super Spray®.

    The hair was then wound into a figure 8 pattern around a hairpin and after the whole head was wrapped each section was tapped with a smoothing iron. Lucie removed the pins and brushed the hair through. She then applied Spray Wax™ and Extra-Body Finishing Spray® for texture.
