Step 1: To create this look, the hair was blow-dried to keep it smooth whilst creating volume at the same time.
Step 2: Hair was then pulled into a ponytail and secured.
Step 3: Then, the hair was then backcombed to give it padding and volume before being put into a loose French roll. To keep the French roll in place, the hair was secured with hairpins.
Step 4: Hair was then pulled out in areas to give a disheveled look and also pulled out around the face to give a softer appearance.
Step 5: Finish off the look with a gorgeous hair accessory to give your hairstyle added edge!
