The second we saw Rihanna's tousled tumble of "Flashdance"-esque ringlets at the American Music Awards, we were obsessed. So, so cute! We went straight to the source, Motions celebrity hairstylist Ursula Stephen, for tips on how to create Riri's sassy spirals at home: "Last night was all about voluminous, soft bouncy curls. First, I sectioned Rihanna's hair in small pieces, sprayed with Motions Light Hold Working Spritz, and then wrapped each section around a 3/4" Brazilian Heat ceramic curling iron. Once I released each curl, I combed it quickly before it cooled to create a fluffy, not-so-tight look. When her whole head was curled, I gave her hair a final spray of the Working Spritz, and the look was set!" Motions Light Hold Working Spritz, $3.75, Amazon.com
