  1. For beautiful, glamorous, soft waves, always start by applying a heat-active lotion to clean, damp or dry hair. This protects the hair and creates a great foundation for setting curls that won't drop out. Try Redken 5th Avenue NYC Satinwear 02 Ultimate Blow Dry Lotion, $27.
    Spray L'Oréal Professionnel Tecni.art Pli, $22.95, all over your hair and blow-dry using a large sized radial brush.
    Section hair into layers and using either hot rollers or curling tongs, curl the lengths layer by layer. When using tongs, roll up each curl and pin it to the base on the head and leave until cooled.
    Once you've completed the whole head, spray again with L'Oréal Professionnel Tecni.art Pli, $22.95, before releasing each curl.
    Using a soft paddle brush, very gently brush out each curl, layer by layer, and spray with Redken 5th Avenue NYC Workforce 09 Flexible Volumizing Spray, $23.50, to finish.
