STEP 3: Add some texture
To keep curls from falling limp or poofing out after a few hours, lift and spritz sections with a texturizing spray (if you want a soft, matte, volumized finish), or a lightweight finishing spray (if you want a shinier, more-defined finish). Rake through the curls with your fingers—don’t worry about being gentle; softer curls look more natural—as you spray, and remember: Less is more.
