How to use curlers with crochet: detailed instructions
Magic leverage curlers have recently appeared on our market, so many beauties have a very reasonable question about how to use hair curlers with a hook.
Owners of long hair quite often remain unhappy with the result of using conventional curlers. When winding a long strand, there are often situations when the hair simply slides, so you have to curl only half the length possible, and curlers with Velcro can not be used. With the release of "hedgehogs" not only that half of the beauty straightens, so still there are many unpleasant moments when the hair has to be torn to get rid of the curlers.
Ideal in this case are crocheted curlers, which, on the one hand, are very smooth, so nothing clings anywhere, and on the other hand, a good fixation is provided, allowing the hair to hold.
What is their advantage?
- Compared to other species, their use takes much less time, especially with due skill.
- They are ideal for medium to long hair. Even if the length of the curler is not enough, you can add one more piece to the same hair.
- These curlers are absolutely safe for hair health, so they can be used even when creating a hairstyle for girls.
How do they look?
These are hollow polymer belts twisted into a spiral with silicone tips at their ends.
Plus, there is a hook in the kit, with which the strand is stretched through the tape.
By the way, the only censure that this type of curler causes is applied to this hook, it quite often breaks during use. In order to avoid this problem, purchase hair curlers in trusted stores that sell quality goods.
Winding the hair
Perhaps using curler hooks is easier than all other types. The only thing that needs to be paid attention is the correspondence of the length of the ribbon and strands of hair. But even if you have not guessed with the size, you can always put another tape on the same strand.
Wrapping order
1) The hair must be clean, so wash it and dry it naturally or with a towel to the state of semi-humidity.
2) If you use these curlers for the first time, do not use any additional styling tools to understand how the hair will behave. Either apply a little foam or mousse of light consistency, so as not to weight your hair.
3) Curl the hair according to the rules, that is, start from the top, then go to the nape. Next will be the side, and finish with bangs. Depending on what kind of wave is needed, choose the width of the strand. If you need a small wave, then take a strand in 1-2 cm, for a large wave thickness, respectively, should be greater.
However, it's not worth much liking, as practice shows, a very thick bundle of hair is hard to pass through the tape even with the help of a hook.
4) Insert the hook into the tape so that its tip is peeking out of the hole.
5) We hook the hair with a hook and drag it through the tube. Try to pull the tape closer to the roots of the hair, so that later the hair looked as natural as possible, see in the photo.
To ensure that during this procedure the hair is not disheveled, the strand can be twisted into a loose flagellum.
6) Let go of the tape, and it itself will twist into a spiral.
7) We perform the same actions with all other hair.
8) How much to keep hair curlers on your hair depends on the way you dry your hair. Drying is better in a natural way, but if you're in a hurry, you can use the help of a hair dryer, because silicone hair curlers, unlike most other types, are not afraid of high temperatures.
9) To remove the curlers from the head, you only need to squeeze the tip lightly and gently pull them off the curl.
10) From the ready-made curls you can make your hair on your own or leave it loose. Just like after using other similar accessories, after waving you should not get involved in combing, and use a comb with rare teeth for styling. If necessary, we fix the hairdo with a varnish.
