Step 1: Apply product

Product protects hair and encourages curl.

Step 2: Wrap hair from top to bottom

Open your tongs and without closing them wrap the hair around from root to tip along the length of the tongs.

Step 3: Cool the hair to allow it to set

After the hair has been curled around the tongs slide them out and hold the curl to allow hair to cool and set.

Step 4: Brush out

Brush out the “wood shavings” to achieve the look

    It looked better before the curls were brushed out. Hair looked like it needed a good brushing. Not sure I like the birds nest look.
