STEP-BY-STEPS

Here’s how to get a pompadour quiff
1. Apply volume foam to wet hair
2. Spritz hair with root lift spray
3. Use hairdryer and comb to dry hair
4. Grip hair with comb for lift
5. Place styler at hair root
6. Turn styler half a turn and glide
7. Continue through hair
8. Spray final fix spray on fingers, work through hair
to create root lift
9. Spritz hair with final fix spray

step one: Apply volume foam to wet hair
On freshly washed hair, apply ghd total volume foam.

step two: Spritz hair with root lift spray
Spritz the roots of your hair with ghd root lift spray for extra lift and texture.

step three: Use hairdryer and comb to dry hair
Using the ghd air™ hairdryer and a ghd detangling comb, begin to dry the hair up and back.

step four: Grip hair with comb for lift
To grip the hair and create lift, place the teeth of the comb at the root facing the back of the head, then flip the teeth down and forward so they grip the hair. You can then pull up to the ends with created tension.

step five: Place styler at hair root
Once the hair is dry, take random large horizontal sections and place the ghd V gold mini styler at the root.

step six: Turn styler half a turn and glide
Rotate the styler half a turn backwards, then lift up and glide away from the root.

step seven: Continue through hair
Repeat the technique in step six throughout the hair.

step eight: Spray final fix spray on fingers, work through hair to create root lift
Apply ghd final fix hairspray to your fingers and, using your fingers, comb through the ends, lifting at the root and pulling back slightly.

step nine: Spritz hair with final fix spray
Finish by applying more ghd final fix hairspray to the hair to hold your quiff in place.
