HOT VS. VELCRO: THE ROMANTIC ROLLER SET OF SPRING 2012

The twilight moment: that moment after hair has been done, but before it becomes unraveled.  It is that state of grace when hair still has an amazing glamorous feeling yet just a little undone. This is the mood for Spring/Summer 2012.

We don’t know what was put in the fashion water this season, but for a change fashion seems to be more about a mood than a particular era. The look is pretty with a dash of romantic. It is definitely a nod to the glamorous side of the 60s, but so new; a modern JEAN SHRIMPTON.

To get the look it’s time to dig up those hot or Velcro rollers for a simple set. Quick and easy, you can leave the rollers to set as you get dressed and finish your makeup.

WASH: You want hair to be smooth yet full, so CURLY GIRLS should wash and condition with Style Straight Unwind Shampoo and Frizz Away Conditioner.  STRAIGHT HAIR GIRLS should use Instantly Thick Hair Thickening Shampoo and Volumizing Conditioner for extra body.

DRY: Blow dry with a ROUND BRISTLE BRUSH to get hair full and smooth with lots of movement. 

HOT SET: Spray sections of hair with Pro Finish Ultimate Hold Hairspray and wrap around large HOT ROLLERS (min. 1 ½ inches). Roll back and away from your face. Let it set the curl until cooled. 

vs.

VELCRO SET: Spray a light spritz of Strictly Curls Curl Booster on each section before rolling them in the large VELCO ROLLERS (min. 1 ½ inches). This will add a bit of extra curl hold since these rollers are not heated. Roll them back and away from your face and leave them in for 20 minutes. Before removing the rollers quickly apply some heat with a blow dryer to ensure a complete set. 

FINISH: After removing the rollers, add Moisture Gloss Daily Drops to your fingertips and give a quick tousle. Use a nylon bristle brush to give the entire thing a proper brushing and loosen the curl. An allover spritz with Pro Finish and you’re ready for the season’s deliciously feminine clothing.
