Loose sexy curls are in

Beachy waves are out, as are shiny perfect curls. Instead, loose, sexy curls are in. Find out how to get them with these step-by-step instructions.



Here's How:



Prep hair with a styling spray (I love Bumble and Bumble's Thickening Spray, which works wonders on fine hair). Spritz on roots and comb through hair.



Part hair down the center.



Blow dry hair, scrunching hair as you go. If you have curly hair, don't scrunch, instead dry straight with a paddle brush.



When hair is about 90 percent dry, separate hair as you would to create two pigtails. Secure pigtails with pony tail holders.



Take one side and twist hair in one direction. Hair will naturally twist itself into a bun. Secure at ear level with a ponytail holder. You can keep hair in place with bobby pins.



Repeat on the other side, so you have two buns at ear level.



Blast the buns and your whole head with the dryer for about 5-10 minutes or until hair seems dry.



Leave hair in buns for 10-20 minutes to set. Just before you leave, take hair out of buns and finger comb curls. (Do not brush out). You can apply a texturizing spray to separate the waves and keep them from looking "too perfect."



Spritz hairspray and you're done!

What You Need:

• Styling spray for regular hair or volumizing spray for fine hair to prep hair


• Blow dryer


• Ponytail holders


• Texturizing spray


• Hairspray

Jessica Simpson Hair - Straight and Sleek

Jessica doesn't always have long, wavy hair. For a period of time she went out with a medium-length straight look & recently she got rid of her extensions & her hair is back to a medium length.

To get this look, you'll want to apply a quarter-size amount of straightening balm through damp hair. If your hair is already super straight, you can skip this step.Dry hair with a paddle brush, pulling brush in a downward motion. Finally, rub a dime-size amount of shine serum through hair. For a super-sleek look (this works great if you have naturally curly hair), smooth hair straight with a flatiron.

Stick-Straight Hair? How to Get it To Curl

I got a letter recently from someone dying for wavy hair, but her hair is stick-straight and won't hold a curl. Is there some sort of spray she needs, she wonders. Well yes, and no. While most hair has some natural curl in it, some of us have really, really straight hair that won't curl. The key to curl is product. Product allows curls to stay.

Start with a thickening spray (I like Bumble & Bumble) applied to wet hair at the crown and roots. Comb through. Blowdry hair then spritz styling spray to 2-inch sections before curling either with a curling iron or in hot rollers. Finger-comb hair and set with styling spray. If this doesn't work, don't fight it. Maybe curls aren't for you.

Curyl Hair - How to Get the Perfect Ringlets

To get perfect ringlets, start with damp hair.

Step 1: Apply a dime-sized amount of serum AND gel through hair from mid-strand to the ends.

Step 2: Take small sections from the top of your head & twist them down to the ends. Let them fall.

Step 3: Dry sections with a diffuser from roots to ends. (Don't scrunch your curls otherwise you could cause frizzing, instead cup the hair from below).

Step 4: When hair is almost completely dry, bend over & shake curls loose. Massage hair at the crown, this will add body.

Step 5: Flip hair back & finish styling with your fingers. Do NOT use a brush.

Curly Hair - How to choose a stylist

Not every stylist knows how to cut curly hair, so you should look for someone who specializes in it. Curly hair needs to be cut wet so you can see the natural shape. A bit of layering works great, but don't get too short because your curly hair will turn into a pouf.

My tip: Find a stylist who has curly hair herself.
