How-To: Elegant Waves

It’s official: texture is back. Curls, waves, bends, twists, kicks—tousled and messy or slightly more refined. This head-hugging, expensive curl with killer shine is great for your chic girl looking for something just a little more polished but not too perfect.

 

Want to know how it’s done? The key is the ghd platinum styler—the ultimate, versatile styling tool that allows you to create a variety of looks that last—in just one stroke. Plus, the platinum will keep your clients’ hair 20 percent shinier, prevent breakage by 50 percent and do wonders for your clients’ color integrity. Here’s how it’s done!
