What is the correct way to use a curling iron?

In order to create curly hair, the most common way is to use a curling iron, especially for girls with longer hair. Many girls like to curl their hair into wavy shapes, but it is not easy to do this. First, you need to use hair care essence and apply it evenly on the hair. The amount used should not be more or less. Then you can use an electric curling iron, or an ordinary curling iron, and follow the steps below.

Step 1:

Allow the curling iron to warm up for 1 minute while you comb your hair to straighten and separate into strands. Use one hand to separate a strand of hair, and with the other hand, open the handle of the curling iron and clamp the end of the hair. The second key point of using a curling iron: hair partitioning. Many people don’t know how to curl the back of their hair. Partitioning the hair can help curl the back of their hair. First, face the mirror and divide the hair into two parts, the front half is to tie or clip the hair in front of the left and right ears respectively; the back half is to divide the hair into two layers, and then divide it into two again, so that it is divided into six areas in total. People with more hair or more layers can divide the hair into more layers.

Step 2:

Roll your hair up, and wait for it to heat up for about 15 seconds (you can control the time yourself, as everyone's hair quality is different.)

The third key point in using a curling iron: the ends of the hair are the key. After dividing the hair into six areas, start curling from the bottom layer (either left or right). First, grab the hair and use your middle finger and index finger to smooth it out. Turn the clip of the curling iron outward, and then clamp the hair from the ends. Be careful to start from the ends of the hair. The ends of the hair cannot be exposed from the curling iron. If the ends of the hair are not completely curled in, the resulting shape will be unnatural and will be messy and curled. Use the clip to roll the hair outwards in a clockwise direction. Stop for about 20 seconds when you reach the bottom of the hair. If you want the curls to last longer or be thicker, stop longer. If some hair falls out of the curling iron halfway through, there is no need to re-roll it. Then start from bottom to top, completing one section at a time.

Step 3:

Then loosen the hair slightly, loosen the handle, and take out the curling iron. Be very careful here, otherwise the shape will be ruined. The fourth key point of using a curling iron: pursuing a natural effect. When arranging your hair, you can put the curling iron down for better results. Arrange your hair; after curling, the left and right sides may be unbalanced, it doesn’t matter, being too symmetrical can sometimes look weird, it looks better if it’s natural. If the curls in some areas are not obvious, it is because the hair has been layered. So when the hair in other areas is curled and let down, the small part that is not curled or the curls are not obvious cannot be seen. So you don’t have to worry about it during the process. Of course, if you care a lot, you can curl it again.

After curling the back half of the hair, use the curling iron in the same way for the left and right sides of the front half, but hold the curling iron upright to create a light and flowing look like a star.

Step 4:

The fourth key point of using a curling iron for the finished product: Final styling and organization After all the curls are completed, reach your hands into your hair and fiddle with it a little to create a naturally fluffy feel. Use a gloss to smooth out frizz and add shine, or a wax to enhance the flow of your hair. If you want it to last longer, you can spray it with styling spray, but the overall shape will be a little stiff. The bangs can be slightly curled or combed straight depending on personal needs.
