Using heated rollers i curled my models hair

Kanika drew a simple diagram to show us how to section the hair

I used the Red Rollers in the biggest section , blue in the middle and lower and smaller white ones at the sides

I applied from root to point and waiting until they were cool before removing

Once they were cool i removed all the rollers

I brushed out the curls for volume

Next i sectioned the hair into 3 parts . 2 at the front either side and a large section at the back of the head.

I created 2 rolls at the front and secured with a pin

For the back roll i needed to add bulk to the hair so i used hair padding secured in a hair net. I pinned this to the head in a sausage shape using about 4 pins

To finsihed i brushed the hair up around the sausage and gripped into place

I enjoyed creating this hairstyle . I think it is an elegant and classic look. I found the thecnique of adding the hair padding very helpful and finsihed the look by adding fullness to the roll. I found it worked well in Jos hair as it hadn't been washed for a few days and helped the texture stay in place. I prefered my front rolls to the back roll it didn' work as well. I think the hair padding i added was too large. I will learnt next time to do a smalled amount
