HOW-TO STEPS

  • close formula
    1

    Working in sections no larger than the width and depth of the DiGiStiK  grip hair close to the scalp and wrap section around the DiGiStiK in a circular downward motion until you reach the midshaft of the section.

  • close formula
    2

    Working in a reverse action from the midshaft to the ends curl upwards and outward.  This creates a loose and natural looking reverse curl.

    Create an entire row of these types of curls.

    Wrap small sections of hair around the DiGiStiK and hold to create  a curl  and straight alternating shape.

    On next section create traditional curls by starting close to the scalp and winding while gliding DiGiStiK smoothly out to the ends always holding on to the ends while gliding through the section.

    After alternating all three techniques all over the head sweep the crown and back sections up into a loose ponytail, never combing through to the ends, just the hair closest to the scalp.
