Ready to transform your curly hair into a stunning updo? This elegant tutorial guides you through each step to achieve a salon-worthy look that's anything but ordinary. Discover how to use TRESemmé Flawless Curls products to create defined twists and a voluminous high ponytail, ensuring your style holds beautifully all day.
Achieve a stunning curly updo with these expert steps:
1. Using Flawless Curls Alcohol-Free Mousse, apply generously through damp hair from roots to ends, ensuring even distribution for optimal curl definition.
2. Using a comb, lift one side of your hair and bring it towards the middle, preparing for sectioning.
3. Part your hair at the center and separate a 2-inch section from the rest, creating a manageable working area.
4. Apply Flawless Curls Gel to the first section of hair and twist it counterclockwise, ensuring each strand is coated for shine and hold.
5. Use a comb to gently detangle each strand as you continue to twist, preventing knots and ensuring smooth, defined curls.
6. Continue twisting three sections of hair in this manner and secure each with an elastic, creating a foundation for your updo.
7. Apply additional Flawless Curls Gel for enhanced shine and extra hold, focusing on areas that need more control.
8. Gather all your hair up and pull it into a high ponytail, positioning it securely at the crown of your head.
9. Pull the ponytail forward and gently move strands around to create a messy, voluminous look, adding texture and softness.
10. Take Flawless Curls Alcohol-Free Mousse again and apply it to the ponytail for extra bounce and renewed curl definition.
11. Using Compressed Micro Mist Hairspray for Curls, spray from 10-12 inches away for one last touch, ensuring long-lasting hold without stiffness.
Reapply TRESemmé Flawless Curls Alcohol-Free Mousse to damp sections before twisting. This mousse provides essential hold and bounce from roots to ends. Ensure each 2-inch section is fully coated and twist counterclockwise while hair is still damp for maximum curl definition and volume.
Apply gel to each section before twisting and use a comb to detangle strands as you twist. This technique smooths the hair cuticle and effectively controls frizz. Finish with TRESemmé Compressed Micro Mist Hairspray for Curls, spraying from 10-12 inches away to seal the style without weighing down your curls.
This style works best on damp hair because products absorb more effectively and twists hold their shape better. If your hair is dry, lightly mist each section with water before applying mousse and gel. The added moisture helps activate the products and makes twisting easier for defined curls.
With proper product application and finishing spray, this updo typically lasts 8-12 hours. The combination of mousse for bounce, gel for hold, and hairspray for finishing creates a secure and lasting structure. Reapply hairspray lightly if needed to refresh the style throughout the day.
After gathering hair into the high ponytail, gently pull strands forward and move them around for a messy, voluminous look, as described in step 9. This intentional loosening creates texture and prevents the updo from appearing too severe while maintaining the overall structure and hold.
