April 10, 2009, Newsletter Issue #157: Elisha Cuthbert's Classic Curls

Tip of the Week

She may be The Girl Next Door, but Elisha Cuthbert looked like a real glamour doll when she showed up for the premier of House of Wax in 2005. This classic look takes a little old fashioned hairdressing, so if you've got straight to slightly wavy hair, just follow these tips to get this great look.

Shampoo and condition hair. Then apply setting lotion to the entire head. Take a wide tooth comb and comb the crown of your hair in place. Next, take traditional magnetic rollers and roll the remaining hair into them. To decide how far up to go, imagine a string tied around your head, right at the tops of your ears. Roll everything under that "string" into medium size rollers, keeping everything above the "string" flat against your head. You will want to work the rollers so when you are done, they sit vertically against your head, with the openings at the top and bottom.

Once all the hair has been rolled, either sit under a traditional bonnet dryer, or if you have time, put a scarf on and go about your day while letting the hair dry naturally.

When you are certain your hair is thoroughly dry, take the rollers out and comb the style out carefully with a wide tooth comb. Be gentle, doing just enough to break up any remaining setting lotion and get your curls just where you want them. At this point, all it should take to finish is a little shine enhancing hair spray to pump up the gloss and hold your style in place.
