If your hair tends to frizz include an anti-defrisant product to the cocktail. Detangle from ends to roots. 6. Create desired part with tail comb. 7. To add volume to the roots, pull individual 1-2" strands up with your fingers. 8. Use a blow dryer and direct air flow from the ends up to the roots. This will build in more fullness. 9. Smooth bangs using a flat brush and a blow dryer. Wrap it left to right using the curvature of your head. Note: Once hair is 100% dry, if you wish for a sleeker look, use a small barrel flat iron and run it through individual sections.
