Step 1: Prep hair with ANTI.GRAVITY.SPRAY which provides weightless volume, heat protection and texture.
Step 2: Mist HAIR.RESORT.SPRAY into hair and roots to add support to style.

Step 5: Using one inch tong, heat the hair while holding it along the hairline, then transfer to KEVIN.MURPHY HAIR.CURLERS.
