Style by Stephanie Pabeja, Makeup by Andrea Kamego, Yellow Strawberry Salons, Sarasota, FL
How To Style:
Begin with dry hair that’s parted to one side. Style your bangs as desired.Use a 1¼-inch curling iron and curl big sections of your hair so that they come in towards your face.Once all sections are curled, use a brush to brush all of your hair so it basically forms one big curl on either side of your face. The curls should be coming in towards your face instead of curling out and away from your face.Spray everything with a light hold finishing spray.Recommended Products:
I love Davines’ Medium Hold Hairspray. Use it as a finishing spray and your hair will still feel soft and not sticky or tacky.

Do not run your fingers through your hair when it is curly. It will only turn into a giant fuzz ball that will be extremely hard to tame. Style your hair, spray with a bit of hairspray and leave it. If your hair gets frizzy while diffusing, just mist it with a bit of water to help reset the curl.

Long hair sometimes gets dry, so make sure to always use a nice conditioner and thermal products to protect your hair from any heated styling. If you don’t use products while using an iron you will evaporate all the natural moisture from your hair resulting in dryness and split ends.
