: Start with a heat protector and volume spray to keep your hair healthy and full of life. If you're working with blonde hair, using a color-depositing conditioner can help blend your roots for a seamless, high-end look without the salon price tag.
: Use a flat iron or a 1-inch curling iron set to a medium heat (around 330°). Take long sections of hair and rotate the iron slightly to create a soft, swooping shape rather than a full ringlet.
