Curling Techniques
For best results, ensure hair is clean and dry before styling. Use a heat protectant spray.
- Section Hair: Divide your hair into manageable sections, typically 1-2 inches wide, depending on the desired curl size.
- Wrap Hair: Open the clamp and place the end of a hair section under it. Close the clamp and roll the iron up towards the scalp, ensuring the hair is wrapped smoothly around the barrel. Alternatively, for a looser curl, you can wrap hair around the barrel without using the clamp.
- Hold: Hold the iron in place for 5-10 seconds. The exact time will vary based on your hair type and the desired curl intensity.
- Release: Open the clamp and gently release the curl. Allow the curl to cool completely before touching or brushing to set the style.
- Repeat: Continue with remaining sections of hair.
