HAIR
Miranda says:

Step 1: Dry hair to 80% dry, then mist with Pure Abundance Style-Prep to boost volume and comb through. Finish drying hair using the Paddle Brush.
Step 2: Part your hair in the preferred direction. Use a 1” iron to set your hair in pin curls. Let the curls cool completely.
Step 3: Once all hair is curled, add a little Pure Abundance Hair Potion to the scalp to create volume and matte texture.
Step 4: After hair cools, take the set down and backcomb your curls. Smooth with Light Elements Smoothing Fluid and a comb.
Step 5: Pin the sides of your style as you see fit. Finish with a light mist Air Control hair spray for touchable hold.
