How-To: 

  1. Apply Blow Dry Volumizing Gel from mid-lengths to ends.
  2. Subdivide hair & blow dry. Pro Tip: Flatiron for added smoothness.
  3. Apply Big Altitude Blow Dry Mousse on root to create satin shine.
  4. Smooth hair into a ponytail. Pro Tip: Clip a paper towel below the ponytail to protect from frizz.
  5. Brush Big Altitude Blow Dry Mousse into the front pieces of the hair and secure into a ponytail.
  6. Smooth flyaways with Spray & Play Harder on a detailing brush.
  7. Use Polished Up Pomade for control & shine when braiding. Pro Tip: Leave hair out to wrap around the base of the braid later.
  8. Add pre-stretched braiding hair midway down for extra length.
  9. Spray the isolated hair with Spray & Play Harder, wrap around the braid. Pro Tip: Dip the braid into a bowl of hot water to tame flyaways and smooth the ends.
  10. Apply Big Altitude Blow Dry Mousse to the braid and finish with Spray & Play Harder.
