Hey there welcome to pursebuzz.com. Today, I'm gonna show you how to create the Wake Me Up In Vegas Katy Perry look. It's big, it's curly. It's really crazy and I'm gonna show you how to do that with the flat iron so the very first thing is I like to prep my hair when I want big hair so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna blow dry my hair and I'm gonna be using the Babyliss Ceramics Extreme.
This little super cool right here and I'm gonna use this brush. This brush is actually not just any brush. You know, professional hairstylist will have a brush and this dryer here and they go like this. Well, this brush does that so that's a part, too, of that. What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna use it to lift my roots so I'll take this, put it on.
So it gives me a little bit of a lift right there and I'm gonna do the same thing with the other side. So, what I'll try to do to getting your hair is big is you can use rollers and this one right here is the Adjustacurl, the iconic adjustable self-holding rollers and you've probably seen this. You've probably seen these like in infomercials. They look like this and you just create your own size so this is really great 'cause you can actually tease your hair with this and you can actually just roll your hair so I would normally use the Enzo Milano to curl my hair
but since, these are having a really good sale right now, I really wanna show the flat iron 'cause I do get a lot of questions about a really good flat iron and I think the is one of my favorites and right now they are having a sale with a free blow dryer so if you are interested, I recommend checking that out. So what you're gonna do is you're gonna take your roller. It's about this size and I want it big right here so what you're gonna do is you're gonna take this piece, nice and smooth.
So how we're gonna do that is I'm just gonna lift it and pull it through like that. Then I'm gonna take this roller and I'm gonna take this and I'm gonna bring it down two times and that's gonna tease it and I'm gonna roll this up and I'm gonna roll it just like that,
really, really close to my scalp and that's gonna leave a big hair right there and this roller holds on its own. It's really neat 'cause of the Velcro. And so, right now, at the crown, I'm gonna concentrate on really, really big hair here and then I'm gonna get little tight curls here so what I wanna do is I wanna take this, lift it, and then I'm gonna go this end right here and I'm gonna twist it,
and I'm gonna twist it downward and the reason why I like to use the is because it has that rounded-off edges on the flat iron and it's smooth going downward 'cause a lot of flat irons, it's kinda square and so I can't curl it because of those peaks. So you're gonna have that and what you can do, if you don't have those rollers, is you can just roll it up yourself, just like that, and clip it.
Now we're gonna do one more right here and the rest is gonna be really curly and then we're gonna tease it. It's gonna be lots of fun. So we're gonna pull it away and then at the ends, I'm going to twist and then bring it downward. Not too tight. Just like that. You may use another roller. And this roller's a really good idea to kinda like,
where you can't find those other kinds of rollers and so these are something that will curl your hair without any beats. Here's another great option for you. And you can also use these to get that really straight big hair, too. Oh, here we go. Okay, so now we're gonna move on and we're going to create those curls. So we're gonna take this.
There's all different kinds of ways. I'm gonna show you a couple. Start at the top, do one complete circle, and then you're gonna drag it down. And be careful if your flat iron is resisting, then your flat iron wasn't mean to make your hair curly so I would skip it. See? Really pretty. And I can't do this with any flat iron. Like I have a lot of trouble curling and that's why
I rarely do this style but it's easier with this particular one so... So, you can even slide it all the way down to get that heat going in your hair and then curl it. So I like to just kind of twist it as they go. You see, there's all different styles.
And then the bigger your flat iron is, the bigger curls you're gonna get. I have a one-inch and so my curls are going to be a one-inch. You can see that curl right there much looser.
See, what I was taught is you flip it over 180 and then you just pull it, and then you twirl 'cause there's another style right there. You can get spiral curls, you can get all kinds. So, if somebody goes like that, you just re-curl it, re-coil it.
So you're gonna go through your entire head grabbing different sections of hair, large pieces, small pieces, just like that, or you can use my favorite technique is to just slide it right through, get the heat, and then re-coil and then clip it to your head. The cool thing about this is that you can customize it any size you want so you can just make it really, really tight or you can make it really, really big, big loose waves.
And I'm just gonna wait for it a little bit for it to cool and then I'll show you-- I remove everything. You're gonna run your fingers through.
Now is you take your hair spray and you're going to spray it all over underneath, right at the roots. So she has really defined curls but then up here it's just crazy so what we're gonna do is gonna start underneath and we're just gonna tease it upward,
this very last one right here, we want it shiny and sleek so we don't wanna tease that. Same thing with the other side. And I'm just using a comb that you can get from Sally's Beauty Supply and then depending on how you want your hair up here, you can fix it.
And that's how you get that big hair. Spray just a little bit here. Fun night out. And then what you're gonna do is you're gonna fix any of the ends, like this one right here's kinda brushed out so what you wanna do, just take it and flip it and then slowly open it up and clamp it downward.
Just like that. Hold it like your curling iron and release so you should get a curl like that. You should do that every so often and some of the and have a defined curl but you don't wanna do it to every single one. And then depending on your hair, see, I have bangs so it's a little difficult for me. Alright. So some of you are going oh my gosh, it's way too big, so, my hair will relax right after so I'm not worried about it.
I'm gonna take that little brush that I showed you guys earlier. Just spray this. It's gonna blend in with the rest of my hair and there it is, the Katy Perry Wake Me Up in Vegas hair. You just gotta give it a little bit of time so it will relax. If your hair's a little shorter, it will look better. If you don't have any bangs, it's definitely gonna look like hers. Unfortunately, mine's still really short so it's a little different but you guys get the idea. Thanks again for joining me at pursebuzz.com. Buh-bye.
