Start with freshly washed hair blow-dried smooth. Using a fine-tooth comb, part strands straight down the centre of your head, then tuck behind ears and secure with pins.
If cowlicks or curls prevent a sleek result, run a straightener lightly over the roots to mid-lengths. Add movement through the ends by taking a curling wand to random hair segments. Set the style with a strong-hold hairspray.
For a glossy finish McCowan suggests spritzing with a shine enhancer, such as Evo’s Love Touch Shine Spray. “It helps to protect from humidity and fights frizz.”
