How to Create Gorgeous Vintage Curls
When it comes to old Hollywood glam, the iconic chunky waves are the style that first comes to mind. You can easily create this style at home in less than 25 minutes using a couple of products. Watch the following video tutorial to dazzle with these waves at your next party.
The two products you need are Nexxus Weightless Style Prep & Protect Leave-In Spray and Nexxus Weightless Style Smooth & Full Blow Dry Balm.
Step 1: Protect.
Always start with clean hair, and dry it with a blow dryer. Use a heat protectant serum or spray, like TRESemmé Repair & Protect 7 Pre-Styling Spray, to keep your locks protected from any heated styling tools.
Step 2: Create volume.
To create large, voluminous curls, curl your hair one section at a time with a 1 1/4-inch curling wand. Start by curling your hair in the middle and twirl your curling wand away from your face.
Step 3: Start curling.
Let each curl cool off in your hand to create a tighter, longer-lasting curl.
Step 4: Spray and secure.
Give your hair a spritz of hairspray, such as TRESemmé TRES Two Extra Hold Hairspray, to lock them in, and your curls are ready for the day!
