<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Start with clean hair. Use a comb to brush hair back and separate into an uneven part.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Smooth down each side and secure with a sectioning clip. Put tissue underneath to avoid the clips making a kink in the hair. Clipping this hair down tight also helps to keep the top section smooth.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Use the water spray bottle to dampen the ends of your hair (from the bottom of your ear down). Tip: you want your hair damp, not soaking wet, so don't go too crazay! Spray </span><b style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.aveda.com.au/product/5245/22631/Collections/Pure-AbundanceTM/pure-abundance-style-prep/index.tmpl">Aveda Style Prep spray</a> </b><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">liberally through the ends and then comb it through. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">4. To help with creating texture, spray </span><b style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://rstyle.me/~fMXc">De Lorenzo Sea Salt Styling Spray</a> </b><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">through the ends and scrunch your hair with your hands as you go.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">5. Divide bottom hair into sections (about 6 - 8 sections depending on hair thickness). Starting with the front section, twirl hair outwards (away from the face) and hold it there tightly as you run the blowdryer over it until almost dry. Continue with the other sections, and repeat until you can see the waves forming. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">6. Run your fingers through the end sections of your hair to loosen the twists and make the soft waves sit properly. Remove clips, and run a small amount of </span><b style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://rstyle.me/~fMXG">Moroccanoil Treatment</a> </b><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">over the top of your hair to tame any frizz. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">7. Finish the look with </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.aveda.com.au/product/5230/16933/Collections/Control/Air-Control-Hair-Spray/index.tmpl" style="font-weight: bold;">Aveda Air Control hair spray</a>. This is my favourite because it's super light. It keeps hair in place without creating a sticky coating or weighing it down!</span></div>
