First you'll need to see your stylist for the right haircut and texture. Then, you can set your hair with small rollers, rods, or drinking straws. Shampoo your hair first and then condition it. Select a firm-hold setting lotion to apply to your hair. You may want to add a little lubrication and shine by using a lightweight oil or serum. Section the hair into small sections. Then, roll each section onto the selected tool (making certain the ends are smooth—otherwise the set will be frizzy). Once each strand of hair is secured on your tool of choice, allow the hair to dry completely (a hooded hair dryer will dry the hair the fastest). When your hair is dry, remove each tool. You’ll have a head of hair with tight curls. Use a little more serum or oil to help with the styling process, then, using your fingers or a very large tooth comb, dismantle each curl so it expands. Shape the finished look as desired. The setting will last until your next shampoo.
