According to a strange tradition, girls are constantly dissatisfied with their appearance. So, for example, the owners of curls tend to "tame" them, but those who have straight hair are always looking for ways to curl them.
Some time ago, the small equipment market was replenished with a new product - a rectifier. With it, you can easily and painlessly make naughty hair smooth and shiny. However, it also has another function, and almost every girl can do curls with the help of an iron today.
Recently, special devices have begun to appear - stylers. With their help, it is especially convenient to curl hair, as they have rounded edges. It is important to remember that you need to choose a styler with knowledge of the matter. The main criterion should be the material from which the heating plates are made. Durable, smooth, and most importantly, effective ceramics are the ideal option today. And you can not be afraid to straighten your hair and create curls with a ceramic iron, as the process is carried out very carefully. The hair is practically not damaged and becomes shiny and soft.
It is best to do curls on medium hair: this way the hairstyle will keep its shape better. On a long head of hair, a curl will turn out only at the tips. A short haircut can only be straightened.
How to make curls (for medium hair)
- To get started, use any thermal protective agent. It can be a gel, foam, mousse and so on.
- Comb your hair well. To do this, first use a comb with frequent teeth, and then with rare ones.
- Separate a small strand. Remember that curls with an iron will not work if the strand is large - the curl simply will not be fixed.
- First run the straightener over the strand. Do this quickly to "warm up" the hair a little.
- Now place the strand between the plates and wrap the tip around the flat iron. Gently lower the styler down.
- Done!
Curls with a flat iron are quite easy to do, but in this case, as in any other, skill and experience are required.
If you want soft waves, curl thick sections of hair with the styler. And if you want to get many, many small curls, you will have to spend a lot of time on this process, because they will turn out only if you take a little hair.
Do not forget that after creating curls, you need to fix your hair with styling products. Hairspray is best suited for this - it will fix the strands, and also will not change their structure. However, you canuse gel. It should have a slight degree of fixation - this way you can achieve the effect of wet hair, getting small waves.
Remember that the care of hair that is constantly exposed to the styler must be special. It is important to use restorative products, as well as serum against split ends. Unfortunately, their appearance is inevitable - the high temperature will make the hair dry anyway.
Learning how to create curls with a flat iron, as well as take care of your hair, you will always be the owner of a chic hairstyle.
