Kelly’s hair stylist Charley McEwen tells us: "After shampooing Kelly's hair, I applied 3-4 drops of Moroccanoil to my hands and worked it through. Blow dry hair using a large round brush. Using a large Cloud 9 wand, twist the hair counter clockwise. Allow the hair to cool. Apply 2-3 drops of serum and gently fingered through the waves. Comb the waves into place and finish with Kim Kimble Retrospective Workable Hairspray to set a Hollywood Red Carpet finish."

Kelly’s hair stylist Charley McEwen tells us: "I used BaByliss Hot Rollers to create voluminous curls. To create a lot of volume, I spritz the hair with setting spray and roll the top section of the hair horizontally instead of vertically. Allow the hair to cool and use a Kent dressing brush to comb out. Tip the hair upside down and spray with Kim Kimble Retrospective Workable Hairspray."

Kelly’s hair stylist Charley McEwen tells us: "Here is how I created the perfect performance hair for Kelly! Section freshly shampooed hair in large sections. Apply 3-4 drops of Moroccanoil Oil Treatment and work throughout the hair with fingers. Mist each section with Kim Kimble Retrospective Workable Hair Spray for a nice hold. Use Cloud Nine wand to create large beautiful waves and allow to cool. Shake out the waves and back comb using a large Kent Back-Combing Brush. Finish with oil sheen and Kim Kimble Retrospective Workable Hair Spray."

Charley McEwen: "I started with freshly shampooed hair. First, take small horizontal sections of hair and wrap around a large cloud 9 wand. Hold the wrapped hair for about 15 seconds before gently unwinding.
"Continue wrapping the whole head away from the face. Let the hair cool for ten minutes and then "shake the wave" out, using the tiniest amount of oil to separate."Tip the head upside down and take through with fingers and finish with Redken quick dry spray. Again put head back and spray quick dry for more volume.”
