Texture Iron Techniques
Today's crimping irons have a different purpose. Back in the '80s when big hair reined, this appliance left highway-sized indentations in the hair, which would create lots of frizz and off the scale volume. It was an all-around epic tool but then suddenly it wasn't so cool anymore. No longer did women want huge crimped grooves in their hair. They were looking for a different form of texture, so a new use was imagined.
Natural Texture, Please
Natural hair is everywhere. From the runway to the red carpet, to the morning commute – women with all lengths and textures of hair seemed emboldened by their natural locks.
Tactile Sensations
When it comes to realizing perfectly piece-y, well-defined hair, texture spray is a must-have. They come in a variety of strengths and boast other benefits beyond adding texture to, well, textured hair. Some are ideal working sprays for moveable styling, while others add powdery finishes for a hint of grit – perfect both for absorbing oil on second-day hair, but also adding grip to hair for texturized styles, updos, and other finished looks.
Chestnut Curls
Even natural hair needs a pick-me-up once in a while. At least that’s what sisters Karla Pelaez-Barrick and Victoria Pelaez of Salon Kavi say. For their client, Charlé, they created a new look using just a bit of refinement for the cut, color, and styling to make her natural coils really pop.
