We're talking a very '90s supermodel, Cindy Crawford type of oomph, and Fugate has two words to get the look: velcro rollers. "(They) give you a sexy, big look that falls softer than hot rollers." He also recommends large velcro rollers for gals with more unruly texture who want to try the look without using heat to stretch the hair. "They're great for girls with thick, unruly hair who wish they could tame it just a little bit. You throw that around a few velcro rollers and it looks awesome." For those who need a bit more help with hair height, Fugate recommends using a fine volumizing mist like John Frieda Luxurious Volume Fine to Full Blow Out Spray, $9.99, used on each section of hair like a setting lotion.

Braids/Teased-out baby braids
Those teased-braids and multi-plait looks with perfectly undone pieces falling out here and there are best handled gently. "I think the easiest way to do it without over-manipulating the hair is to kind of do he-loves-me-he-loves-me-not with the braids," recommends Fugate. "Pick it apart strand by strand and throw it up into the air randomly like you would pick petals off a dandelion. A tiny piece at a time will turn into this amazing cotton-candy, fairy-floss-type texture." If you need a touch of shine at the end, Fugate recommends misting dry oil into the air and stepping into it as if it were perfume or using a dry texturing spray if you need a bit of grit to hold the style.
