Complexity Level : Moderate

Time required : 20- 35 min

Estimated cost : Depends upon your choice of products

Resources required: Blow dryer, curl enhancing serum, hair spray.

Instructions:

1. Smoothen your hair. If your hair are wavy, apply liberal amounts of hydrating cream or spray evenly throughout your hair. Best results are achieved if you apply on damp hair. Choose a product that works best for your hair and you will come to know which is the best only through trial and error!

2. You should have a blow dryer ready. Before you blow dry your hair you can apply a curl enhancing serum or spray to your hair for bouncy, distinct curls. Take care not to apply it on your hair crown. Invest in a good hair dryer with a diffuser. A normal hair dryer void of a diffuser is more prone to making your hair frizzy and puffy. Now blow dry your hair with the diffuser and scrunch your hair gently as you do it. You can also make an addition of a curl enhancing spray if you happen to feel that your hair waves do not have enough definition.

3. Once your hair are dry, use a paddle brush to brush your bangs straight and then to the side. If your bangs do not lie straight without any heat application, it is desirable that you blow dry them too. While doing so, hold the blow dryer and point if below. i.e the bangs should be styled by a downward flow of air. You need them all straight or mostly so. Not twisted at the end like the old times. Hold your bangs in lace with a small bobby in and then use a hair spray if your hair is prone to loosing its shape quickly. This way you can preserve the style longer and not worry about it.

You can also use a straightener if you have one without using a blow dryer. Before using a straighter use a heat protection serum. You can use it before any heat application device that you use like blow dryers, straighteners, curling irons etc.
