The Muse
I think Angelina Jolie is the perfect example of how
to make big hair look modern, and I'm not just saying
that because I do her hair.
The Real Deal
It's really not about back-combing (although that's
ok for a more dramatic evening look), but about creating
the maximum volume and texture for your particular hair
type. To start, I would use a volumizing spray like
Aveda's Volumizing Tonic, paying particular attention
to the roots. While blow-drying, the old tip-your-head-upside-down
move still does the trick, and you can lock in the volume
by intermittently spraying a light hairspray throughout
the drying process. When it comes to curling irons,
think variety: Bigger ones produce waves, while smaller
barrels produce a tighter curl. Whatever you choose,
the contemporary way to curl is to use the iron at THE
ROOT of your hair—using sections about 2-3 inches
long—not from the ends up, like in the '80s. The
overall result? Big, sexy, current modern hair. What
woman wouldn't want that.
