1. After gently squeezing excess water from Megan's freshly washed hair, Dickey distributed a handful of light water-based mousse from roots to ends with a wide-tooth comb. If your hair is wavy, avoid heavy styling products—waves lie close to the head and can easily go flat or look greasy.

2. Dickey used his fingers to twirl Megan's hair into defined waves, then let it air-dry.

3. To add shine to Megan's waves and minimize frizz, Dickey ran his fingertips over a pomade, then smoothed them over the ends of her hair and the layers around her face.
