When it comes to the perfect product for upstyles, the powers of volume, grip and hold are musts. Artist Haley Garber uses Aloxxi's Bombshell all-in-one styler when creating her beautiful braids and updos. 

Bombshell is all those factors and more. The product works on wet and dry hair and has zero weight with a flexible hold. It preps, styles and holds hair, all in one.

“Creating voluptuous styles are achievable with the correct prep and product,” Garber says. “Bombshell is such a versatile product. I can use it on damp hair for heat protection, smoothness and volume, and then I can continue to use it during styling for grip and hold.”

Bombshell is designed to leave no flaking or residue, and it creates volume with soft, touchable finish.

Watch and learn how Garber created this elegant updo, just using Bombshell as a styler.

STEP 2: Spray with Bombshell before loosening up curls for texture.

STEP 3: Gently tease the crown.

STEP 4: Leaving out the teased section as well as ear to ear sections, take a section and “swoopingly” cross to center, securing into place and loosening softly.

STEP 5: Take sections from either side and secure in the center paying special attention to the detail around the face.

STEP 6: Then let down teased section and divide into two. Twist each one up once and then secure on top of the base, both towards the center. Pull and detail.

STEP 7: Organically continue to twist and pin the remaining pieces and finish with Bombshell!
