How to get this easy updo for long hair: Step 1
Flip hair over and lightly spritz hairspray on underside. Flip upright and spray on the top. Finger-tousle as it dries. Step 2
Gather your bang-hair area and bobby-pin it out of the way so you can style the rest of your hair first. Step 3
Curl 1-inch sections (away from your face). Start wrapping your hair around the iron at ear level, not above. And leave your ends out of the curling iron. Step 4
Unpin the bang section and curl as you did the rest of your hair. Step 5
Insert spread fingers into hair at the nape of your neck. Shake your hair (but do not run fingers through) to make the curls messy. Step 6
Now pin back a piece of hair on each side of your part. (Remember, messy = good.)
Secure them together with a bobby pin and mist with shine spray.
