Step 1: 

Section the front from behind the models hair, section into a side parting. From the top of the crown central section a strip of hair not too thick. Leave a similar size section to come over and cover it to create a clean finished look.

Step 2: 

Using the dry shampoo to make the hair tacky, to gain the volume, use the tong curling away from the head and slide a grip in place, make sure your not using grips with teeth as this will pull out the curl when the clip is removed.

Step 3: 

Curling down from the top of the head directly underneath one another to the bump in the centre back of the head.

At the sides create a triangle section and curl back carrying on down.
