They can add life to your layers and make your colour pop and most of all; they make a statement. With larger-than-life volume and accentuated texture, Disco Curls are their own accessory and can elevate any look.
The Disco Curl Trend
While low-maintenance styles will continue to trend, sometimes it’s fun to get glammed up. If we look to TikTok and Instagram, we’re flooded with information about blow-dry tutorials, classic sets, and using tools like rollers to get a voluminous finish. Whether you’re a fan of the faux-out or prefer a traditional blow-out, Disco Curls take the bouncy blowout one step further with big, bouncy, voluminous curls.
Where To Start
They don’t require a specific haircut or a certain color, Disco Curls can be created on anyone using hot tools or by accentuating your natural texture.
Whether you have open-waved hair, loose curls, tight curls or coils, you can utilise your natural texture to create this look.
Always start with a heat protectant. BLOW.DRY WASH + RINSE is a great way to add heat protection to the hair or you can utilise HEATED.DEFENSE.
Use a diffuser to dry your hair, flipping your head upside down or side to side as needed to add volume. If your hair dries naturally with volume, you can also use this option.
Once hair is dry, if curl or wave definition is needed, use a 3/4-1-Inch curling tong based on the finish desired.
Wrap small sections of hair around the tong beginning at the new growth with tight tension. To create more volume use an alternating curl pattern.
Once hair is completely cool, brush through with a TEXTURE.COMB to create a fluffy finish and spray hair with a texturising spray like BEDROOM.HAIR or DOO.OVER to lock in an airy volume.
If your hair lacks texture or volume, you’ll need dedicated products and styling tips to add this to your look.
Prep hair with PLUMPING.WASH + RINSE to build body in from the start.
Towel dry and apply HEATED.DEFENSE and EVER.SMOOTH throughout. If you have a hard time building volume at the base, also apply BODY.BUILDER to the new growth area.
Flip your head over and begin to rough dry, then use a large round brush to dry hair up and away from the face.
Then, apply ANTI.GRAVITY.SPRAY to mid-lengths and ends and SANDBLAST to build texture and hold.
Section the hair and use a small curling tong (3/4-1-inch) depending on your length and desired finish.
Wrap small sections of hair around the tong beginning at the new growth with tight tension. To create more volume use an alternating curl pattern.
Once hair is completely cool, brush through with a TEXTURE.COMB to create a fluffy finish.
After brushing the hair out, apply SESSION.SPRAY or SESSION.SPRAY FLEX and a light dusting of SHIMMER.SHINE to finish.
The Botticelli Bob: Get The Look
Seeing that the bob and other short hairstyles have been at the top of every trend list this season, it only seemed fair that the Botticelli Wave trend also took on a shorter iteration.
The Botticelli Bob trend starts on a stacked bob or blunt length to get the look. From here the same wave and curl styling on natural or heat-styled hair should be applied. As always, finish with BEDROOM.HAIR or DOO.OVER to ensure that breezy, divided texture that gives off romantic renaissance vibes.
