How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes

I start by prepping damp hair with a heat protectant and a texturizing spray, then blow-dry with a round brush to build body.

Once dry, I take one-inch sections and wrap them around a 1.25-inch curling iron, alternating directions for that natural, undone feel.

After all sections are curled, I run my fingers through to break up the curls, then tuck one side behind the ear and secure with a bobby pin.

A light mist of flexible-hold spray and a few seconds of finger-combing gives that ‘I woke up like this’ finish that lasts through dancing.

Turn to Page 4 for my all-night wear longevity secrets, touch-up kit essentials.

Always check how the finish and proportions look in both natural window light and warm indoor lighting so the result feels effortless from every angle.

Keeping a saved reference photo on your phone makes it easy to compare subtle details, textures, and color harmony before you start.

And final studio checklist.
