HOW-TO STEPS

  • close formula
    1

    Created with the innovative HAIelite ROD for large curls all over the head, then swept up in large roll curls, one on each side in the front,  and sweeping sections with matching rolls in the back. 

    Create soft curls all over the head.

    Start at the front hairline and work your way up to the top on both sides. Start close to the scalp with the larger end of the ROD and wrap the hair around the rod till you reach the ends, lay ends over the top of the hair to avoid burning fingertips.

    Secure curls in place with a bobby pin.

    Starting in the front take a section from the fringe area to the top of the ear, smooth by brushing up into desired placement.

    She could be wearing a poodle skirt and chewing gum and she would fit right in with the Happy Days gang, or she could put on an elegant gown and strut her stuff at the opera, you choose.
