Do you know what hair looks like when you wake up? That disheveled and tousled look that is so sexy? Here is the way to achieve it artificially, on medium length hair.
Steps
Step 1. Start the night before
Wash your hair with warm water and apply the shampoo to the roots only, trying to leave out the rest of the hair. Rinse.
Step 2. Apply conditioner to the entire length of the hair to protect and keep it in good condition
Step 3. DO NOT BRUSH / COMB THE HAIR
Not even with a wide toothed comb or the like. It is simply not allowed.
Step 4. Dab your hair lightly with a towel, sprinkle some heat protectant - but don't comb or brush
Step 5. If you have a fringe or a tuft that you would like to keep in order, comb and dry it as you usually do
But leave the rest of the hair alone!
Step 6. Make a turban with a clean towel, trying to gather all the hair
(If you have bangs, leave it out.)
Step 7. This is the most important step:
YOU MUST SLEEP WITH YOUR HAIR WRAPPED IN A TURBAN TOWEL.
Step 8. As soon as you wake up, undo the turban and, if your hair is not yet completely dry, blow dry the roots and the damp areas
Step 9. If your hair isn't as wavy as you want, use a low-heat curling iron and curl a few strands at random but only for a few seconds
Step 10. Don't brush them
Adjust the bangs and areas that are too flat if necessary.
Step 11. Don't wash your hair the next night - sleep on it (washing your hair every day can damage it) and just fix the bangs the next day
This look holds good for a couple of days.
Advice
- Try spraying some salt water and heat shield at the same time for a more disheveled look.
- For a more romantic and smoother look, use the brush.
- Headbands and hair bands are ideal for this look, but be careful not to brush!
- For a more wavy effect, you can do some braids before putting the turban on - but start from the middle, not the roots.
Warnings
- Not suitable for people with a mania for brushing their hair
- This style is not suitable for curly or afro hair
