Learn how to create wearable volume.

Step 1: Saturate hair.

Saturate your hair with the TRESemmé Repair & Protect 7 Pre-Styling Spray to prep the strands for braids.

Step 2: Braid the hair.

Braid your hair down to lay flat against the head, then put on a stocking cap followed by the wig.

Step 3: Tease the wig.

Tease the wig from the roots to the ends and then spray it using the TRESemmé Compressed Micro Mist Hair Spray in Level 4: Extend to hold.

Step 4: Cut the wig.

Cut most of the length off the wig while cutting it into a triangular shape to achieve this asymmetrical style.

Do a final check on the shape and add another layer of hairspray to hold it in place.
