Don’t hate me because I’m in California in February with 70/80 degree temperatures.  It is PERFECT weather & I am influenced by it and desiring to brighten every head of hair that walks through the door at p!ay hair lounge.

My relationship with makeover subject, Taylor, dates back 6 years when I approached her & her mom at a greasy spoon restaurant asking if I could do her hair.  At 11 years old,  she was too young to model, but told them that I would love to shoot her in a few years and started cutting her and her mom’s hair.  I have done a handful of shoots with her over the years.  Each one unique, but none as terrific as this coming of age makeover and shoot.

Taylor asked me a few weeks back what I could do to make her more “edgy” now that she is 17.   With a budding modeling career I chose to save her from  1/2 & 1/2 &  felt brightening her blonde would make her more marketable and look fanfrickentastic!  She loved the idea and was in my chair before we knew it!

Directions for this classic waved hairstyle:

1. Dry hair completely using a product such as Bumble & bumble Styling Lotion

2. Take 1.5″ x 3″x hair’s length sections and spritz with Bb. Spray de Mode to protect from heat & give a flexible brushable hold.

3. Wrap each section around the iron horizontally on the head.

4. Pin each section tightly to cool once you slide it off the 19mm Enzo Milano Classic clipless iron.

5. Once all hair has been set and cooled, remove pins.

6. Brush all hair thoroughly with a flat paddle brush.

7. Use a comb to coax hair into wave formation.
