Get long, cascading curls with high shine. First, wash and deep condition so you get a healthy, glossy shine. Dry hair with a round brush. Then use a large curling iron and, alternating two-inch sections, roll hair around the barrel in one direction and then again in the other direction to create a ripple effect. Once you’re done, spritz everything with an aerosol shine spray.

First, consider a few layers. “The longest styles look even longer right after a good cut that adds movement even if it takes off half an inch,” says NYC stylist. If you haven’t gotten to the stylist yet, use a curling iron and roll two- to three-inch sections halfway up the barrel. Spritz with hairspray and then pull the curls out so they turn into long, loose waves at the bottom.

To get perfect, tight curls sans frizz, you need a cut that supports your curl pattern. Make sure to tell your stylist that you wear your hair naturally so she can give you the cut you need. Make sure to deep-condition overnight so you get that extra dose of moisture coarse curls need. Run a thick leave-in conditioner and serum through your hair.
