Making Waves

Hairstylist Luigi Murenu is admired for his wild and unashamed
hair creations. His take on waves and curls may be a bit too
much for the every-day-Jane, but how he manages and bosses
around his model?s hair may help you to create your own, much
tamer version of his runway waves. Here are his simple tips
for styling long and short hair into an inspired mess of
beautifully finished curls.

Tools of the trade

If you don?t already own them, do yourself a favor and pick up
some quality curling irons in ¾-inch and 1-inch sizes. You may
want other size barrels as well, but these two will do the
lion?s share of your curling work. Also find a serum that
works well for your hair. Depending on your hair type, some
serums can be too heavy, so experiment and stick with what
works. Last, but not least, invest in a great mousse. Again,
spend some time experimenting to find what works best for your
hair and your budget.

Ripples

If you have shorter or shoulder length hair, rolling finger
waves can be a great way to add that something extra to your
look for a night out or just to make a splash at the office.
Start with damp hair and work a quarter-size drop of serum
from roots to tips and let it air dry. Roll just the front
sections with a ¾-inch iron and then immediately run a wide
tooth comb through to make loose waves. Be careful not to keep
the iron in too long ? otherwise your loose waves may look
less fabulous and more flapper.

Rolling waves

For longer hair, cascading rolling waves can add volume and
personality to an already glamorous look or elevate a blah
look to a head-turner. Start with damp hair and mousse it
from roots to tips. Apply a small amount of serum to the ends
only and blow dry without a brush. Roll the hair up from tips
to roots with a 1-inch iron and hold for one second. Slide the
iron out carefully and pin the curls to your head until they
cool. Fluff with a brush to achieve your desired volume.

Spring fling

This look can transform even the straightest tresses into a
forest of springy curls that would make Annie jealous. Start
with damp hair and work mouse thoroughly through it. Let it
air dry completely and then begin working your way around
your head, rolling your hair up with a ¾-inch iron. When you
get to the front of your head, switch to a 1-inch iron ?
larger curls in the front make the look appear more natural
and effortless.

Curls to texture

If you have naturally curly hair, you can relax it into soft
waves by working mousse thoroughly through damp hair and
blowing it straight. Set your hair in loose hot rollers to
help regiment your hair?s natural curliness. Brush through the
curls until you?re satisfied with the spacing of the waves and
make a side part. To add even more texture, curl your hair
with a 1-inch iron until you?re a few inches from the roots.
Use a wide tooth comb to relax the curls.
