How to Scrunch Hair

-
-

Combat the negative effects of humidity on your hair with a little bit of product and these simple instructions.

Step 1: Wash and dry hair
Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner. Then squeeze your hair with a towel to sop up any excess water.

Step 2: Add product
Add product to the middle and ends of your hair.

Tip
Use gel or glaze on thick hair and foam or mousse on thin hair.

Step 3: Scrunch your hair
Run your fingers into your hair and grab small sections. Scrunch the section up toward the roots.

Tip
Grabbing larger sections will result in larger curls, smaller sections will result in smaller curls.

Step 4: Dry your hair
Dry your hair with the blow dryer and diffuser. Point the dryer from the bottom of your hair up to the roots. Continue scrunching your hair with your fingers while you are drying.

Step 5: Set with hairspray
Set your waves with hairspray to eliminate frizz.

Step 6: Practice scrunching
Practice scrunching with different products and alternating between larger and smaller sections of hair until you get your desired look.

Did You Know?
In 2004, a woman in China set the world record for the longest hair. Her hair reached almost 18 1/2 feet long.

I just want to say thank you SO MUCH for not making an incredibly long boring video to explain it. I'm so tired of watching these long drawn out youtube videos where people explain things and they have big long intros and they go on FOREVER to explain what to do. Thank you so much for making the instructions short and clear and not boring me to tears with extra useless bullshit the world doesn't care about.
