· Bobby Pins

· Hair Elastic

· Blow Dryer

· Round Brush or Wide Toothcomb

· Redken Rough Paste 12 Working Material

· Redken Guts 10 Root Targeted Volume Spray Foam

· Redken All Soft Argan-6 Multi-Care Oil

To create this look:

1. Spray hair with a volumizing spray, then blow dry with a round brush for a voluminous base.

2. Gather hair to one side behind the neck and secure in a loose ponytail.

3. Take various-sized sections from the ponytail and randomly curl the ends. Mix a little styling wax and anti-frizz lotion in your palms and scrunch into hair to sculpt the curled ends. This will relax the curls and add shine.

4. Dress the do by securing each curl around the base of the ponytail with a bobby pin, concentrating the pinning on the side of the head and overlapping pieces on top of each other.

5. Finish by carefully loosening a few pieces of hair around the face for that worn-in look.
