DIY Beauty - Hairstyle: Messy Up Do

Step 1.) Apply a heavy-weight styling product such as pomade or a mouse. Redken Water Wax, Water Based Pomade, works well with this type of styling. It allows you to get a fresh, textured look without leaving your hair stiff. Scrunch hair while Blow drying hair upside down. For more volume, hold head upside down and spritz hair with hairspray.

Step 2.) Pull hair to the top of your crown as if you were going to put a ponytail in. Pull hair half way though the elastic and then wrap elastic around that section of hair. Almost to the effect of a bun but with hair hanging out.

Step 3.) Take small, thin strands of hair and pull out, creating different lengths all around. You can curl these strand or leave them straight.

Step 4.) Use a waxing product to separate the pieces of hair. Spray with hair spray.
