Rinse it thoroughly and towel dry.
2Take a small clump of hair (about half a handful) at the back of your head along the hairline. Wrap it around the round hair brush. Gently start to pull the hair through the hairbrush. Use the hairdryer to dry hair between the brush and your scalp. This should create dry, straight hair. Work up from your neckline to the crown of your head until all your hair is straight and dry.
3Starting at the hairline again, take a half a handful of hair and hold it by the ends. Use the comb to comb the hair backwards from the ends to the roots. This will give your hair loads of volume. Work your way from the bottom to the crown of your head until you have a very full head of hair.
4Squeeze a penny-sized blob of gel onto the palm of your hand. Rub your palms together so that the gel is evenly distributed over your hands. Use the tips of your fingers and twist your hair into spikes. Keep rubbing your hands together to get more gel onto your finger tips.
5Spray your hair liberally with hair spray.
Tips & WarningsCyndi Lauper hairstyles work best on short, layered hair. Ask your hairdresser to layer cut your hair before attempting this style.
If you have very curly or frizzy hair, apply hair mousse before attempting to blow dry your hair straight.
Keep the picture you found of your favorite Cyndi Lauper hairstyle handy, especially after you have back-combed your hair. This will help you shape the hair into the style you like.
Gel can make your hair look greasy or dry to a hard, white crust if you use too much. Apply it sparingly.
Cyndi Lauper often has a few gentle curls in her bangs. You can get these by curling your bangs with a curling iron.
Cyndi Lauper always sports dyed hair. Consider dyeing your hair (or just small bits of it) different colors. Don't be bound by the usual hair palette; Lauper loves bright primary colors and is especially partial to red, purple and yellow.
