Before.
1. Spray hair with dry shampoo. Lift fine, horizontal sections out from head and spray from root to end with holding spray.
2. Wrap horizontally around a medium-size iron.
3. Slide out. Curl falls naturally from a dropped section.
4. Lift up sections from along the Mohawk and back comb at the base and continue backcombing to the end of the section.
5. Spray the styling brush.
6. At the sides, brush the surface up to the crown.
7. Pin the sections up to the crown and secure.
8. For a second look: brush the top strands back to the crown.
9. Bring the strands from along the center back and secure all at the crown into a ponytail.
10. Divide the ponytail and create multiple braids.
11. Twist the braids into each other and continue to braid remaining sections. Then twist around each other and secure with bobby pins.
12. Take the side section, direct to the crown and braid.
13. Twist into the base braids and secure.
14. Add any additional braids or pieces.
15. Pull out selected strands for an “unfinished” look and finish with spray.
