How to Create French Roll?

Step 1: Get the Hair Ready

Clean, untangled hair should come first. Make sure the wig is firmly in place if you're using one. To control flyaways, use a light mousse or a smoothing serum. While body wave or deep wave textures add volume and flair, straight wigs provide a sleek foundation.

Pro tips: If you want to add volume to your French roll, backcomb your hair or add texturizing spray before moving to the next step.

Step 2: Section and Secure

As though you were going to create a low ponytail, lightly brush the hair back. Hold it together with one hand instead of tying it. Then twist your hair and secure your hair vertically down the center of your head with bobby pins. This gives the roll an anchor.

Step 3: Tuck and Twist

To create a roll, gently twist the hair length inward toward the center pins. After rolling to your scalp, fold the ends inside and secure them with a pin. For improved grip, use U-pins.

Step 4: Form and Smooth

For the ideal shape, gently tug or tighten sections with a tail comb. This is your chance to personalize; keep it sleek and tight for a minimalist look, or add volume at the crown for a bouffant look.

Step 5: Secure It

To ensure everything stays in place, finish with a styling spray or strong-hold hairspray. Don't worry, our human hair wigs will remain stylish all day (and night) because they react so well to styling products.

Step 6: Extra Touches

For a glam look, add hair accessories like florals, cuffs, or pearl pins.

For a softer, more contemporary look, try wearing an HD lace wig from Cynosure hair with your roll and face-framing bangs.
