Apply Sebastian Professional Thickefy Foam to damp hair; blend evenly throughout. Then blow hair out straight with a medium to large-sized round brush, spray hair with flexible hairspray for added texture; section hair and set with large velcro rollers.

Thomas Dunkin suggests prepping hair with a weightless thickener, flexible hairspray and soft texturizer to create moldable texture for hold that lasts without a product-laden look.
Try:
• Thickefy Foam: Weightless thickener for natural volume
• Microweb Fiber: Elastic texturizer for malleable, touchable texture
• Shine Define: The ultimate versatile hairspray
