Kouturekiss - Poof Action - Amp The Volume
We all admire the glamourous red carpet hairstyles and this one in particular can be easily recreated.

  1. Brush out your hair’s natural texture, you can do this look with straight or curly hair.
  2. Section off your hair into a mohawk part.
  3. Tease that section until it has a large amount of volume, aka – the Poof!
  4. Tightly pin back the sides of your hair against your head.
  5. Gently brush over the teased section so that it looks smooth.

You can pull your hair back into a pony, or leave it down for your glamourous red carpet look! Voila!

Step Two: Prep your nails. Apply your base coat. I used OPI’s Base Coat. (more…)
