Cost: $24.95.
ghd IV Styler: the ghd team used ghd’s newest iron to get the perfect “natural” wave, giving hair movement and dimension. To achieve this look at home: use the ghd styler to curl random sections of hair. Curl only the part of the hair closest to scalp to midway through the hair section you are working on, leaving the ends untouched. This what gives the style movement without looking too “done”. Cost: $240. ghd Sea Spray: the matte textured spray recreates movement and curl, providing long lasting texture and firm hold.
The team lightly sprayed throughout hair after curling, then used their fingers to shake out any curls that looked too defined. Cost: $23.95. ghd products are available at www.ghdhairusa.com and Sephora.
