STEP ONE: PREP

Start with freshly washed hair and towel dry any excess water. Apply By BEAUTY BAY’s Detangle + Protect Heat Defence Mist from the roots to the tips. 

STEP TWO: DRY AND PIN

After parting the hair into small sections and pinning up, take your round brush and hair dryer with a section of hair about one inch wide. Start at the root of the hair and slowly pull the tool down the length of the hair, curling inwards as you go. 

Once this piece of hair is completely dry, curl it around your fingers and pin up with a creaseless clip.

STEP THREE: UNWIND

Repeat this step all around the hair and leave for about 20 minutes before carefully unclipping and unwinding each curl. Leaving each section to completely cool before unclipping is super important, as it helps to set the curl properly and avoid it dropping straight away.

STEP FOUR: SERUM

Finish by adding a few drops of By BEAUTY BAY’s Smooth + Shine Hair Serum to the hair.
