Gently curled, lush-looking hair is back in fashion, thanks to royal sweetheart Kate Middleton and sister Pippa. The key to the Chelsea blow-dry’s big bouncy hair is to have your hair cut into longer layers to get lots of movement.
DIY blow-out guide:
- Wash and towel-dry hair. If your hair tends to frizz, finger a little mousse through it.
- Divide hair into segments, then, using a large round brush, work through sections as you dry.
- When your hair is completely dry, wrap it around large curlers.
- Remember, the longer your hair stays in curlers, the better the bounce. Remove curlers and shake out the curls using your fingers. Avoid brushing, as this will make the curls collapse.
- Run serum or oil through the ends and finish off with hairspray.
