I have started to use Monat hair products and I am in love. My hair has never felt so soft! Breakage that I had been dealing with for 6 months is literally healed... I can't believe it! If you would like to to find out what products are best for your particular hair, send me a message! I would love to help you have great hair too! It's as simple as changing your shampoo. Also message me if you want 15% off!
- After washing my hair, I add Monat's Blow Out Cream, Inner Force Restructuring Serum (great for over processed and damaged hair), and Rejuvabeads to my ends (to help heal split ends!)
- I then let my hair air dry as long as I can.
- Then I will take the blow dryer to it and round brush the curl out from the back of my hair.
- I like to use a large round brush with boar bristles.
- Once my hair is 100% dry, then I take the hair about 1 inch above my ear and clip it out of the way.
- Starting at the front, I take about 1-1 1/2 inch sections and I will be curling my hair with a 1 inch wand.
- Always be careful about what temperature you are using to curl your hair. It should never be above 400. Best to keep it close to 350.
- I use the wand upside down and hold it parallel to my face.
- Wrapping the hair away from my face, keeping the last two inches off of the wand
- Hold the hair on the wand for about 10 seconds.
- For this bottom layer I like to pull at the curl once I let it go from the wand, to straighten it a bit.
- This makes it so that the curl isn’t so tight on the bottom layer.
- At the back where I have more natural wave to my hair, I like to take the curling iron and rub it at the top if it is still a bit wavy to help loosen that wave before I wrap it around the wand.
- Continue taking 1- 1 1/2 inch sections, until you reach the back.
- Then repeat on the opposite side going in the opposite direction so that the curl is away from your face.
- Take the next few inches of hair from the clipped section and curl each section away from the face. I like to start at the back to keep the uncurled hair where I can see it better.
- For this section I straighten out the curl just slightly but not a lot like the bottom section.
- I do one more section the same way.
- Then for the very top I make sure to brush out the hair before I curl that section to keep it smooth.
- Keep the wand parallel to the face, so you won’t curl the top few inches.
- Once done curling, I gently run my fingers through the curls to break them up a bit.
- Then I like to smooth them out with a bit of Rejuveniqe Oil from Monat.
- I don’t use hairspray on my hair very often, but you could spray your curls at this point as well.
- Now I will show what I do to keep my curls lasting longer.
- At night I put my hair either half up or all the way up in a soft scrunchy. The best are velvet or silk. I pull at the roots to give a little volume.
- Also sleeping on a silk pillowcase helps.
- In the morning I let it out and then use a wide toothed comb to gently comb through my curls.
- I add a little more Rejuveniqe oil and encourage my curls to form back together and use some dry shampoo if needed.
