Special Occasion Hair Style and Make-up Application

In order to create long lasting airy volume with loose curls I took an old school approach using a traditional roller set and hood dryer.  This method may take a little more time to complete, but often provides a longer lasting style!  I believe this to be especially important when it comes to occasions where dancing is involved!  
This hair style began with a double shampoo, starting with Redken Hair Cleansing Cream Shampoo, followed by Unite Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner.  After gently towel drying the hair I applied one pump of Pureology's Essential Repair Instant Repair leave-in conditioner and one healthy dollop of Redken's Full Frame 07 all-over protective volumizing mousse.   Once the hair was dried I removed all of the rollers and lightly misted each individual curl using Redken's Control Addict 28 high-control Hairspray.  Because our desired texture was a looser curl I then used my hands and a wide tooth comb to brush through the entire head of hair scalp to ends creating light airy volume!
The final touches for this look included a professional make-up application using Mirabella Cosmetics.   Our goal was to create a formal appearance using earth tones and neutral shades with a more subtle application.
