How to wind hair curlers beautifully and get the perfect locks at home

If you can check the whole process with curling irons or a curling bar, and in case of an unsuccessful curl it is easy to fix it, then using a hair curler all is somewhat more difficult, incorrectly wound hair can lead to a spoiledhairstyle. Therefore, the question of how to wind hair curlers beautifully and get the result in the end, gets up very acutely. We offer to see how others manage this procedure and try it on their own.

The most common types of curler

Depending on the length, thickness, stiffness and, most importantly, the hair condition, different types of hair curlers are used.

This can be an electric or a thermal hair, a hair clip, a boomerang or a Velcro.

The most careful to hair include boomerangs and papillotes due to the use of softer materials in their manufacture.

How to properly wind hair

1) Before curling the hair should be washed and towel dried to a semi-moist condition. If using thermal hair, hair should be dry. After that, a light styling agent is applied, preferably if it is a liquid or a spray. These means do not weight the hair, which will allow the waving to persist for a longer time.

2) The first strand is separated from the vertex with a comb with a handle length.

Determine the thickness of the strands themselves, depending on what result you want to get as a result. The main rule: the thinner the hair, the more curly and shallow the hair.

Therefore, if you have a short hair, it is better not to twist too thin strands, or risk turning into a lamb. But long hair gives more room for the use of curlers.

3) To create different hairstyles, twist the hair in different directions, you can see more details in our selection of video materials at the end of the article.

But in any case, in the beginning, the top of the head is treated, then the back of the head, then near the temporal areas and the last one will be a bang.

4) During the process, make sure that the ends of the hair do not break, but lie flat on the surface.

5) Dry hair must be wound naturally( this does not apply to the use of thermal hair).Use a hair dryer, and then very carefully, not bringing it close to the hair, you can only after 30-40 minutes.

6) After the final drying, you can remove the curlers. At the same time we try not to untwist the curl, otherwise it will quickly lose its shape.

7) Combing ready-made curls is better than 30 minutes with a rare-comb.

8) To finally fix the hair, use a varnish. For long hair, it is better to apply a varnish for strong fixation, for short ones use a weaker option.

These are the basic stages of curling, regardless of which hair curlers you use.

Additional recommendations for curling

1) For long hair, you can use any kind of curler, except for "hedgehogs", they are also called Velcro, in which the hair begins to get mixed up.

2) The thickness of the strand should match the width of the hair curler, so that the hair does not slip.

3) For bangs use larger types of curlers.

4) If you intend to leave the curlers for the night , recommend using curlers or foam rubber boomerangs. They do not spoil the hair, and sleeping in them is much more convenient.

5) After wrapping, attach each strand to the curler with a hairpin or put on an improvised cap for the night, so the hair will not crumble and you will get the desired result.
