Finish with TIGI’s Bedhead Hard Head Hairspray.

Kate Hudson
On towel dried hair, use a mousse TIGI’s Foxy Curl Mousse. Blast dry till 100 percent dry and blow dry the top with a paddle brush and choose your part.

Spritz TIGI’s Bedhead Massive Shine Hairspray and wear the hair over one shoulder.

Tousle with fingers to open out the curls. Use TIGI’s Rockaholic Fun Times Flexible Hairspray for hold, but allow movement in the hair.

To prep the hair, start with a good strengthening shampoo like TIGI’s Bedhead Elasticate shampoo and conditioner. On damp hair, apply TIGI’s Bedhead Superstar Thermal Blow Dry Lotion. Blow dry the fringe area first and set in a roller, taking the hair away from the face. The rest of the hair is blow dried in sections using a paddle brush. Remove the roller, backcomb the fringe and set at a slight angle. One can use bobby pins to secure the hair, if needed. Spritz a hairspray for long-lasting hold.
