Whether she's stirring up secrets on TV dramas or showing us how to shake it on the dance floor, Georgia May Foote has managed to look pristine and perfect no matter what the challenge. From her always fresh 'no makeup' look, to her beautiful, brown, luscious hair, it's safe to say that she’s probably every modern girl’s beauty inspiration.
Georgia's crowning glory is her thick, bouncy, beautiful hair, and as effortless as her curls may seem, it takes a lot to achieve and maintain the sameeffect. That's not to say it's impossible, though!
If you want Georgia's big, bouncy curls just follow these easy steps:
Beautiful hair starts with a thorough cleansing and while most shampoos will promise just that, it's not enough to grab just any random bottle. Typical shampoos are jam-packed with ingredients and components like sulphates which are tremendously strong and tend to leave hair weighed down and hard to style. Use a sulfate-free shampoo like Moroccanoil Clarifying Shampoo to keep your hair light and free from excess products and oil that could cause your curls to fall flat.
Just like your mainstream shampoo, common conditioners have a tendency to be overwhelming and may make your hair heavy and harder to style. To achieve Georgia’s beautiful, bouncy curls, your hair needs just the right amount of texture and moisture without being weighed down by sulfates and parabens. L'Oreal Professionnel Serie Expert Volumetry Conditioner is the perfect conditioner for the job. Not only does it provide moisture, it lends texture to straight hair for easy, problem-free curling.
Now that your hair is clean and conditioned, it’s time to move on to drying. Pat dry your hair with towel before rough drying it with a conventional hair dryer. Don't worry if ends up looking like a Mad Hatter disaster; we're going for volume here! Once your hair is light and dry, it's time to whip out the hair protector. It's necessary to coat hair in a product like Fudge Hot Hed Style Whip to keep the hot curler from damaging your hair. This moisturizing foam keeps your hair hydrated during heat styling, and adds extra hold and shine to your bouncy Georgia curls.
It's time to begin curling! To achieve big beautiful curls like Georgia's, the Babyliss Pro Titanium Expression Conical Wand is definitely the way to go. This pretty little baby heats up fast and has the smoothest curling barrels on any curler in the market, so you'll be sure not to get your hair caught when you pull.
To start the process, take a section of hair and secure it in the curler's barrel. Pull your curler down until you reach near the ends of the hair. From here, start twisting the barrel under the section of hair until you reach just above your chin level. Hold the curler horizontally for five seconds and then angle it so that the tip points upwards. Loosen the clamp slightly and pull the curler down and away until the section of hair is released. Work through the rest of your hair following these curling steps.
Now that you have those pretty curls, it's time to make sure they last! A styling product like Sexy Hair Curly Liquid Curling Gel is essential in keeping your curls pretty and perfect throughout the day. This all-natural styling gel provides shine and eliminates frizz to keep you looking your best, just like Georgia! A little goes a long way when it comes to Sexy hair curly gel, so just take a small amount in your hand and comb it lightly through your hair with your fingers. Style it until it's just Georgia enough, and you’re done!
Some women think that short hair and curls just don't mix, and sometimes, that might be the case. Clip in wavy set are a great alternative for women who want the look but don't have the hair to spare. Remember though, hair extensions may react differently to certain hair care products, so make sure to learn more about them before you make a purchase. Because hair extensions might not get the same oily coating our scalp produces for our natural hair, they might end up frizzy and dry with products and heat styling. This spells disaster for girls who want curls. To avoid all that, you can opt for I&K Hair Extension Care Pack to add extra moisture. It includes a moisturising shampoo, conditioner, antistatic spray and loop brush and ensures that your extensions get the same shine and texture to make it look and feel more like natural hair.
