How to get Big Hair at home?

Inspired by our previous post about Brigitte Bardot, we started to lust for some seriously voluminous hair for ourselves. Turns out there is a great choice of big hair styles out there: pony tails, polished and less polished looks, evening or everyday look. This style looks great on everyone, we feel.

Did you also get urge for this hair? Good news! We found a great tutorial on how to get big hair at home (for those who do not have finances or the nerve to go to the hairdresser). 

Products needed: Styling products (preferably for volume), pins, clips or rollers, a brush, a hairdryer and a spray for hold / fixation. 

a. Wash and blow dry hair straight. It's best to use a volumizing formula for thin or normal hair, and a moisturizing formula for dry hair. Apply a styling product like a gel or mousse. Make sure the product you choose has a bit of hold.

b. Divide the hair in parts and set it with rollers or hair clips. Make sure that the hair rolls are big enough (small ones will give it a permanent curl effect). It´s important to curl the hair strands inwards (like it is shown in the picture).

c. Spray the hair with a product for fixation (moderately).

d. Blow dry hair (make sure to use medium heat)

e. Take out the rollers / clips and carefully straighten each strand with fingers towards the ends. Comb the hair slowly with fingers after all the clips are removed. If necessary, you can tease the hair a bit in the crown or back of the head.
