TIPS FROM AN EXPERT

Jordan Thomas is the Education Executive for ghd, and has worked globally at runway shows and on photoshoots. He says two of the biggest life hacks when it comes to taming waves are hydration and keeping it simple. “Natural curls often have a mind of their own, and know where and how they like to sit,” he explains. “For me, the key is not to overwork your curls. Either let your hair dry naturally or use a diffuser attachment on a low-medium speed and then define any pieces that need it.”

Rather than using a straightener that will “flatten” your curl, Jordan loves a wand or tong to enhance curls and leave them bouncy. “How tight your natural curl is will determine the size of the barrel you will use. My go-to is the 14mm ghd Curve Thin Wand which enhances and defines curls in as little as three seconds!”
