Use these tricks to crimp your hair perfectly!

Get the look:
1. Mist your hair all over with a heat-protectant spray while it's damp, then blow-dry it and part it on your right side.
2. Separate a three-inch section of hair one inch back from your hairline and crimp it from root to ends (closing the iron for four seconds each time).
3. Pull your hair back and loosely secure it with an elastic. Wrap your hair around itself, then pull is through the elastic again.
4. Mist your style from 10 inches away with a high-hold aerosol hairspray to set it.

Personalize it for your hair type:
For straight hair: Crimp your entire top layer of hair, brush through it, then recrimp the three-inch section.
For wavy hair: Blow-dry with a round brush first to smooth your hair so the crimps look more defined.
For curly hair: Straighten your hair with a flat-iron before you crimp it to make the crimps show up.

For relaxed hair: Hold the crimping iron closed for just two seconds to minimize the damage to your hair.
