How to make curls with straight ends?
Curls are the most popular hairstyle in our time. Depending on the size and method of curling, curls can fit both a business style and any festive outfit. Some of the most popular and unusual curls are curls with straight ends. Let's take a closer look at how to curl curls with beautiful straight ends, what tools and tools to use, and also how to make such a hairstyle truly luxurious.
Features of the hairstyle
We all know what the usual curls and curls look like, but perhaps not everyone knows what curls with straight ends are and what is their main feature. First of all, it should be noted that this hairstyle, thanks to the straight ends, gives any look more femininity and charm.
In addition, when curling curls on short hair and medium length hair, you can create additional root volume. On long hair, creating this effect with curls can be a little difficult, but other methods can always be used.
The peculiarity of the hairstyle is that curls do not curl along the entire length of the hair, but only on a certain part, while leaving a beautiful straight end. The length of the free end is determined individually, depending on the wishes and style. For example, a long straight end makes a hairstyle more playful and mischievous, while a short one, on the contrary, lends seriousness and sophistication.
Curls can also differ, since their appearance largely depends on the method of curling. Let's take a closer look at the most popular ways to curl straight-ended curls.
How to do it with an iron?
The most popular and easy way of this type of curling is the iron. They can easily make elastic curls and a perfectly straight tip, but even in the modern world, not every girl knows how to curl her hair correctly using this device.
This type of styling is perfect even for short hair, which is sometimes very difficult to curl.
In addition, the curls from the ironing turn out to be very elegant, so the hairstyle can even fit into the framework of a business office style.
To curl curls with straight ends on an iron, you must first wash and dry your hair thoroughly. In no case should you start this styling method until the hair is completely dry, as there is a risk of causing irreparable damage to it. In addition, you need to pre-treat the already dry strands with a spray with a thermal protection effect.
After these simple procedures, we proceed to the installation process. You need to separate a small strand and clamp it between the heated ironing plates, after which the device must be turned away from the face, slightly pulling the hair and slowly moving along it.
The iron is not brought to the end of the strand, since we need to leave a straight tip. After you remove the strand from the device, you need to wind it around your finger in the direction of the curl, giving it a shape and allowing it to cool and lock in this position.
We perform the same actions with the entire shock of hair.
To make the hairstyle seem more casual and airy, you can separate the resulting curls with your fingers, and then fix with varnish for reliability.
How to curl with a curling iron?
Hair of any length can be easily curled with a completely ordinary curling iron, while leaving a free end. The advantage of this method is that curling irons exist in completely different model variations - from different shapes to different diameters.
The principle of curling hair with a curling iron is very similar to the way of working with an iron. Hair also needs to be pre-prepared and well combed. Then we divide them into equal strands and start curling.
Everything is pretty simple here - strands are wound on a heated curling iron away from the face, and the tip must be held with your fingers, after which you need to withstand a few seconds and remove the curl from the curling iron, leaving it for a few seconds.
If necessary, you can straighten the curl with your hands or a comb with large teeth.
We perform similar actions with all the hair, resulting in a stylish modern hairstyle.
other methods
It is unlikely that you will be able to get such curls by winding your hair with curlers, rags, or resorting to many other methods of curling. But there is one option that will allow you to easily create beautiful waves with straight ends. These are the most common and familiar to us from childhood pigtails.
This method is most suitable for long hair, since it is on them that you can create beautiful elastic waves. Owners of short haircuts and medium-length head of hair should avoid this kind of styling, since an abrupt transition from waves to a straight end can visually roughen facial features and distort their proportions.
For a more reliable curling of hair in this way, you must first wash and dry it slightly. You can simply dampen your hair with water and apply styling products.
Do not weave too many braids, as small waves with straight ends do not look very pretty. One or two braids will be enough, depending on the thickness of the hair.
After carefully combing the prepared hair, we proceed to weaving the braids, but do not continue it to the very end, but retreat from 5 to 15 centimeters and fix it with a thin silicone rubber band. Then we let the hair dry thoroughly, leaving it for several hours, and then we unravel it, getting beautiful waves with straight ends. This hairstyle will become the perfect complement to a romantic date look.

- When using pads, hair dryers and irons, it is imperative to use thermal protection.
- Hair after curling needs to cool down a little and "rest", so you need to start shaping your hairstyle after a few minutes.

Do not overdo it with hair products, or unnecessarily expose them to high temperatures. All this can adversely affect the health and appearance of your hair.
