Ciler's tip for the base of this look would be to: "Allow your hair to air-dry naturally before styling. This process can create natural volume and movement which will help when it comes to tonging. Always apply a leave-in conditioner to dry hair – like this Gisou, Honey Infused Leave-in Conditioner, £26 – to avoid damage during combing and styling.

"I’d advise starting with a small spritz so as not to leave it looking greasy. Once the hair is dry, I would blow-dry the hair line, so it’s smooth and tuck one side behind the ear. (Holly’s signature look is to tuck the right side behind her ear).

"Then I use a curling iron like the Hot Tools, Pro Signature Curling Iron, £33.80 to create a short, voluminous wave.

"To finish off the look, I use a texture spray like the Morrocanoil, Dry Texture Spray, £18.45 followed by a setting spray like L’Oreal Professionnel, Infinium Extra Strong Hairspray, £4.85 to smooth fly-aways and hold the look in place."
