In the past, the only way of curling hair was to leave smudges of cider in the hair and hope for the best. Today, technology has given us tools like the curling wand and curling iron that make it possible to get a curl even on the lowest budget.
In the past, wands were bulky, unreliable and ineffectual. The good news is that today, modern technology has given us a way to get the curls we desire without splurging our pockets.
Before we move on to the tips for getting the most out of a curling wand, here’s a quick background first.
In order to get the curls we want, our hair needs a little help to achieve it. To achieve this, wands are invented and hair is coated with a concoction that gives it some kind of texture so the curls will hold. At this point, we need to realize that not all wands are created equal. If yours doesn’t produce ions, you’re not truly wavy. The aim of a good curling wand is to give us curls shaped like we want them to be.
Here are a few steps to give you the most wavy possible.
1. Start with dry hair. Curling hair while it’s still wet or moist is a very bad idea. Anything that touches your hair will cause your hair to become frizzy and dull.
2. Blow dry your hair. Make sure that it’s dry before you begin to curl it. This also means that you aren’t going to extra heat for your hair, because heat will just increase frizz.
3.ize the barrel. The greater the barrel size of the curling wand, the tighter the curls will be. The smaller the barrel, the looser the curls will be.
4. Use a thermal heat styling tool. These have different heat settings, which adjust the heat and allow you to curl your hair with a much softer and less elastic look. They’re very popular among stylists, but you can also purchase these for your home.
5. Start curling a small section of hair. The hair you’re curling should be a small section, so that you can control how tight the curls are.
6. Clamp the hair with the curling wand. Make sure that the wand is at least an inch in diameter and firmly press against the base of the hair.
7. While you’re pressing, flip your head upside down and introduce the curling wand to the section of hair you’re going to curl. Regardless of which type of wand you use, you should start curling near the roots of the hair.
8. Complete the rest of your hair styling. whatever you do, stay away from heat styling tools and heating tools like blow dryers. If you use a blow dryer, let it air dry naturally.
9. Finish off the look. If you want an added touch to your curls, you can apply slight hold mousse to your curls. This will make your curls shinier and glossier and look healthier.
10. Discover the perfect shade for you. It doesn’t matter if you’re going for a look with super dark tones or something with more natural highlights, just make sure that you match your skin tone. Otherwise, it’ll be really difficult to make sure you’re buying a flattering shade.
11. traded with another user. Be sure that you’re using it on your hair and don’t try it on your arms or friends. You have to try it on your hair to make sure it’s going to work on your hair.
12. made from human hair. Curly hair is going to react differently to different dyes. To be certain that the dye will be the right one for you, be sure to consult your stylist.
Getting your hair dyed in a salon can be pricey. However, you can save a lot by dyeing your own hair at home. Presently, there are products that are sold at your local drugstore that are specifically designed to dye your hair at home.
13. have pretty pictures. When you’re dying your hair, paint the picture of your hairstyle in the mirror. This will give you a visual aid in how your made up hair look. Who knows, it may even help you to get the perfect hairstyle for you.
14. save time. There’s no real reason to go to a salon for hair coloring and then wait hours to get your hair colored. You can do it at home or at the salon, it’s really not mattering as long as your hair is clean and in good condition.
15. look beautiful. There is no better way for you to look and feel beautiful than by having a beautiful hair color.
