“She wanted a natural-looking hair style,” said Mancuso “so I created an elegant mixture of uneven and even waves.  Combined with the perfect amount of subtle volume, the look was natural yet sultry.”

Best And Worst Of The Met Gallery:

PREP:

·Shampoo and condition hair with body building products to help give hair lift

STYLE:

·Blow-dry hair while using fingers to massage the scalp at the root to create lift and enhance the natural texture

·Once dry take a large round brush to round out the ends

·Use a curling iron randomly all over to create uneven waves

FINISH:

·Finger though a frizz taming lotion like, Nexxus Sleek Finish,  to define and separate waves

·Finish with a light misting of hairspray, like Nexxus Comb Thru for a touchable hold
