I have the sorta long bangs she has and my hair is about the same length! help!

Blow dry it? But with a round brush or what?

I also have the layers

Answer 1

let me just stress that she had a professional doing her hair for at least an hour to get her hair looking like that...

but anyway

the stylist most likely set her hair using one of many different methods including rollers, pincurls, barrel curls, etc.

you should be able to easliy get this look at home with a large curling iron (at least 1 1/2", if not 2"), the right texturizing product (try bed head Mastermind...i love that stuff), and of course the right hair cut. she has a lot of long layers. you cannot get this look without that haircut. they most likely blew it out with a round brush and a root lifter (try Paul Mitchell Root Boost). tip your hair upside down to dry the roots. get get your hair 80% dry before even attempting to touch it with a round brush...it'll make your life a lot easier, i promise. then, taking sections about as large as the curling iron itself (too big wont create a curl, too small with create too many curls) and starting in the back and working your way forward and up, curl with the curling iron, making sure the curling iron stays vertical and the hair begins at one end of the curling iron and ends at the other (does this make sense?). this will create large waves like thi picture, not curls. it may be a little curlier for the first few minutes, but spray it anyway, because it will relax. after you've done your whole head, use some texturizer (depending on the product, but i use about a quarter size amount of Mastermind), rub it in your hands, and starting on the ends (NEVER put product directly on your root except for a root lifter...it'll make it look greasy and it'll weigh it down) mess up your hair, run your fingers through it breaking up the waves and kind of just mess it up. this look is hard to achieve, and takes awhile...you might want to go to a stylist a pay for it.

Well, I have to admit, I'm not an expert when it comes to doing hair but I'm decent at it. I would say from the pictures, print it off and keep it by you when you are doing your hair. I would try using a small curling iron and make tight curls with it. Then, once done, spay a bit of hairspray on it to keep it and then run your fingers through your hair to separate the curls. Apply a little bit more hairspray if needed and then you should have something similar to the picture. Good luck! It is a very pretty hairstyle. Wish my hair was thick enough to do that to!

Answer 3

Wash ur hair and towel dry it then put some gel. Wait for 5 mins the use a iron hot curler or blow dry it just for dryness then use the curler.

Best of luck.

Answer 4

Ok, you have the bangs but you also need layers. Spray your hair with some mousse or good holding product. Use a hair curler and only do small strands at a time. Flip over your head and scrunch your hair with your hands.

Answer 5

After you've washed your hair apply loads of root boosting mouse & blow dry your hair with your head upside down, this will create the volume.
Halfway through drying apply more mouse and scrunch your hair into loose curls. Use curling tongs if needed and then to finish use lots of hairspray to keep it in place.

Answer 6

get somethin call curlin rods...they r those rollers that r long n they come in different colors b/c each color is a size....then get one of those adapters for the blowdryers that r big n circler...its suppose to give u a wave/crimp look...then spray some type of sheen or oil to keep it from frizzin out

Answer 7

blow dry it to give it that body.. you might need to wear curlers or use a hot curling iron as well to give it that wavy-body

Answer 8

Curl it with a curling iron.

Answer 9

Answer 10

try going to a salon. And why they are doing your hair ask them to explain what they are doing it, so that you can do it yourself next time.
