Crimped Cantata

Talk about dedication. "I arrived at the salon at 5 a.m. for several weeks in order to practice on mannequin heads before doing my first clients of the day," reveals Detra Smith, owner of Hannah and Me salon in Moulton, Alabama.

"My goal was to recreate styles that I had done in the distant past with fresh new twists. For Crimped Cantata, I smoothed the hair with a flat iron and then applied several layers of Matrix Vavoom Freezing Spray to ensure crisp crimps and eliminate all flyaways."
