  3  Prep damp hair with thickening tonic and comb through. Blow-dry the hair with your fingers until 70 percent dry. Apply one pump of light elements™ smoothing fluid to the ends and blow-dry with a Mason Pearson brush until 100 percent dry. Create a side parting and spray lightly with brilliant™ damage control™. Blow-dry the parting in place. Beginning in the nape, curl 1-inch horizontal subsections from ends to roots with a medium-barrel curling iron, holding each curl for 20 seconds before clipping on base.

  4  In the side sections, perform a dry finger wave set, securing the waves with clips. Cool for 10 minutes and remove the clips. Brush through the back section with the tip of a Mason Pearson brush, and then brush through the sides with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers, making sure to maintain the shape

  5 Gather the ends of the hair into a ponytail and secure with a hair elastic at the nape. Using the ponytail as a base, roll it up into itself to create a faux-bob, and secure with bobby pins. Finish by refining the waves with the end of a pintail comb. Mist with air control™ light hold hair spray.
