Step 1: Sally applied Sally Hershberger Keratin Fix ($32, hsn.com) to damp hair to prevent frizz and add moisture.

Step 2: Then she smoothed out hair with a blow-dryer and a large round boar bristle brush.

Step 3: After sweeping hair to one side, she wrapped sections of hair, varying from 2-5 inches, around a 1 ¼-inch curling iron, leaving the ends out.

Step 4: She spritzed a small amount of Smooth Fix ($24) to help break up the waves and add shine.

Step 5: She then took hair from the right side, twisting it and pinning to the side with three or four bobby pins.

Step 6: For added texture, she sprayed Texture Blast ($24) from mid-length to ends.

Step 7: She finished with Body Fix ($24) all over the hair to keep strays in place.
