Rules for using a hair curler

general information

Every woman can learn to work with a curling iron. An electric household appliance serves to create curls of various shapes and increase the basal volume.

General information about the curling iron

Under the influence of temperature, the hair becomes wavy and gathers in beautiful curls. Some women confuse a curling iron with a styler, but these are two different household appliances. The main differences are:

  1. the styler has several working nozzles;
  2. curling iron has limited functionality;
  3. the styler is more versatile and is used for hair straightening, cold blowing, etc.

On sale you can find different models of pads, each of which is adapted to create certain effects.

A cylindrical device is considered a classic option, it allows you to create stable dense curls. The conical type does not have a clamp; such a device is used to wind spiral curls.

Models of curling plates

Some models have two cylinders that allow you to stack strands in the form of eights. To create large curls in the form of a sea wave, a three-barrel curling iron will be required. An unusual option is a device with a triangular or square section. With the help of such devices make broken curls. Crimper tongs allow you to create the effect of a small sea wave.

Most types of pads are manual, so a person needs to wind his hair himself, but there are also automatic models. The rotating work element will fix the lock itself. Devices differ in diameter. To create small curls you will need a small cylinder diameter.

Preparatory Activities

Before you start using curling, hair must be thoroughly combed. This can be done using a brush or a flat comb. It is important to carefully untangle and smooth each strand so that it becomes even. You can also use hair conditioner.

Modes of curling plates

Modern models of pans have several temperature conditions. You should always start from the very minimum. Heating can be increased only gradually. This approach allows you to maintain the condition of the hair. First, a thermal protective agent is required, which happens in the form of a gel or aerosol.

It is sold in cosmetic stores or in the relevant departments of the supermarket.

Varnish or styling gel is also applied before using the curling iron. It is advisable to choose high-quality and reliable products from well-known brands. Fake or cheap cosmetics can cause allergic reactions.

Styling options

Hair is divided into small sections with rubber bands and hairpins. They should be approximately the same in volume. The optimal width of the strand for curling is 2.5 cm. The curling iron is drawn vertically to the side of the head and, starting from the ends, wind the hair. Hold the device for about four seconds and release the strand. The result should be a curly curl.If it is too tight, then it is enough to comb it slightly with your finger - this will weaken the curl.

Locks

A similar procedure is repeated for the entire section, after which you need to go to other sections. After all the strands are curled, the hair is fixed with a small amount of hairspray. This will save her during the day.

To create large beach waves, start a front wave. The strand is wound from the face, not reaching the roots of 5 cm. From the ears, the curls begin to curl from the roots to the ends. To give the hairstyle a little chaotic rear view of the head, the hair is laid in the direction of the face. At the end of the work, the hair is slightly combed with your fingers to straighten the curls.

Using a hair curler

 

Lovers of tight curls can use an air conditioner that does not require rinsing. It is applied to the entire length and then the hair is treated with styling gel. The ends of the strands are slightly wrinkled with your fingers - this will give them a curly look.

The bangs are combed with a round large brush and with its help the hair roots are lifted. Curly bangs with a part of the hair that frame the face are curled. The movement begins from the roots, trying to tighten the lock tightly. After all the hair has been processed, you can selectively curl the ends - this will allow the curls to be made tight. The hair is fixed with hairspray.

To create a basal volume, a cone-shaped curling iron is required. The tip of the strand is wound around the thin part, and the hair closest to the roots on the thickened part. Using corrugation tongs, you can also achieve a similar effect. For this, the device is used in a certain way:

  1. Separate the upper strands and secure with hairpins on the head.
  2. Grab the lower strands with the appliance at the roots and pull them slightly to the side.
  3. Hold the tongs for 5-10 seconds.

The width of the strand should not exceed 5 cm. This method of curling is used for the entire head, after which the upper strands are freed and a similar process is carried out for them.

Hair length

Some women are convinced that curls can only be made on long hair. For short haircuts, use a curling iron of a classic model with a small cylinder diameter. For a square or bean, a cone-shaped option is suitable.

Wash hair

Hair should be thoroughly washed, dried and treated with foam or mousse for styling. You can not divide the strands into sections, but simply separate them and gradually curl. Start winding from the tip to the roots. You need to hold the curling iron for 3-4 seconds, since the curl will quickly heat up.

For a bob and a bean, the hair is divided into several parts and each is treated separately. To give the hairstyle a casual look, curls curl in a different direction. After the procedure, the head is given time to cool, after which the strands are gently combed. Fingers can slightly raise the roots and fix them with varnish.

For medium length haircuts, it is better to use a cone-shaped curling iron. Hair is thoroughly combed and divided into two parts. Start winding from the roots, the device must be kept upright. In order to reduce the likelihood of getting a burn, a wooden comb is applied to the roots of the strand.

It is important to control that the hair is evenly wound around the cone, as this will ensure proper heating of the entire length. In the locked position, just hold for 5 seconds. In the face, strands frizz last. To create spiral curls with large turns, they start to wind from the middle. It is better to set the temperature weaker in order to minimize strands.

Curling irons

For long hair (below the shoulder blades), curling irons with a cylinder diameter of 19 to 50 mm are suitable. The hairstyle must be divided into sections. You can also raise the upper strands and fix them with hairpins or elastic bands.

Begin to curl from the bottom and small sections. The tip of the curl is gently clamped and wound onto a curling iron. Hold the device for up to 10 seconds, after which they release the lock and allow it to cool. For natural styling, you can alternate the direction of the curl.After the lower sector is processed, you can go to the upper. At the end of the work, the hair is treated with varnish.

Some tricks

Mousse for hair

Not every woman can make a beautiful and spectacular curl. Experienced hairdressers advise using special styling products: foams, mousses, serums to form curls. They will help to achieve the desired result.

After the strand is curled, you can not immediately comb it. She must first be allowed to cool. You can fix the curl with a hairpin, which will not let it fall apart. After 10-15 minutes, it is removed and the curl is put in order.

Do not grab too wide strands, since then it will not work to achieve uniform heating. You can not use too much varnish, as this will give the hairstyle a sloppy and careless look. With the help of a curling iron, you can create a basal volume and beautiful curls. It is important to choose the right model of the device and learn how to use it.
