What You’ll Need:
- Hair foam
- Wide-tooth comb
- Hairdryer with a diffuser attachment
- Heat protectant spray (optional)
- Finishing spray (optional)
Step 1: Prep Your Hair
Start by washing your hair with a curl-friendly shampoo and conditioner. Towel-dry your hair gently, ensuring it’s not dripping wet. Use a wide-tooth comb to detangle any knots or tangles, starting from the ends and working your way up.
Step 2: Apply the Foam
Dispense a golf ball-sized amount of hair foam onto your palm. Rub your hands together to evenly distribute the product. Flip your hair forward and gently scrunch the foam into your damp hair, from the roots to the ends. Make sure every strand is coated with the foam for even curls.
Step 3: Diffuse Dry Your Hair
Attach the diffuser to your hairdryer and set it to low heat and medium speed settings. Flip your hair back and gather small sections in the diffuser. Hold the diffuser near your scalp and softly cup your hair, drying it in a scrunching motion. Repeat this process until your hair is about 80% dry.
Step 4: Define and Set Your Curls
Once your hair is mostly dry, take small sections and wrap them around your fingers to create defined curls. Hold each curl for a few seconds to set it, then release gently. Continue this process until all your hair is curled and defined.
Step 5: Finish and Maintain
If desired, spray a heat protectant spray all over your curls before using a hairdryer on cool air setting to set the style and add extra hold. Finally, mist your curls with a finishing spray to prevent frizz and enhance the longevity of your gorgeous curls.
There you have it! With the right technique and a trusty bottle of hair foam, you can achieve stunning curls that will turn heads wherever you go. So, what are you waiting for? Embrace those curls and show the world your beautiful, bouncy hair!
