Step back a few centimeters from the ends of each of them. After that, start curling the strands from your face with a curling iron. Each part is wound only up to the middle.

The strands need to be gently pulled with an iron towards the ends of the hair. Above the middle, they should remain straight. The resulting styling is fixed with a fixing varnish.

To style short hair this way, it is best to use a tapered curling iron. But first, the hair is washed well and dried. In this case, you can apply a balm. After the curls are completely dry, they are treated with a thermal protection agent.

At the same time, warm up the iron to a temperature of at least 120-130 degrees. After that, separate a small strand 2-3 centimeters wide. It is well combed and neatly placed in a curling iron.

A curl is made from a strand and pinned with a hairpin. After cooling it is sprayed with varnish. This procedure is repeated with all other strands.

All hair is divided into 2 equal parts along the horizontal parting. Then the upper section is tightly secured with invisibility. Along with this, the instrument must be preheated.

First you need to wind all the strands from the bottom. After that, the invisibility is removed and the upper section of the strand is combed. All hair from this part is wound up to the middle. The resulting styling is sprayed at the end with varnish.

This option is similar to the previous one. A small part of the hair located on the crown is pinned up with invisibility. The rest are divided into several parts. Each of them is curled in a circular direction.

After that, remove the hairpin and dissolve the rest of the hair section. They need to be combed well. Then, smaller, small curls are also made from them. The finished styling is sprayed with varnish.

Such styling assumes that the hair located on the back of the head is slightly shorter than the rest of the curls. And also bangs must be required. It can be of any shape and length.

All hair is carefully combed, after which a small strand is isolated from them. It is twisted tightly into a bundle (note that all the strands will twist in the same direction). At the same time, you need to warm up the iron.

The twisted strand is placed in the tool. It is carried out along the entire length of the curl. Each of them will take about 20-25 seconds. After that, each plait is unwound. The result should be a curl.

Each individual curl is fixed with a gel or varnish so that the styling keeps its shape for a long time. At the end, it is additionally sprayed with fixing varnish.

After repeated use of the iron, even with the application of heat protection products, the hair may become weaker and lose its original appearance.Therefore, you should adhere to some rules of care.

After using the iron, it is recommended to switch to a special moisturizing type of shampoo. These include products with various extracts (avocado, jojoba, grapes). And also worth using balm with arginine. After all, such an amino acid can strengthen the strands and soften them.

After using the tool do not apply a large amount of styling fixing products. Otherwise, the curls may become too thin.

Some stylists also advise to apply home lamination method. To do this, take gelatin. It is able to give hair the effect of a protective collagen film.

You can also make a regenerating algae mask (preferably dry brown algae). They are usually applied to the strands along with conditioner.

After each shampooing, it is recommended to apply a balm to moisturized hair. If it is not there, it is permissible to use a mixture of nutritious oils instead. The most commonly used oil is sesame oil.

Remember that you should not curl your hair with a curling iron more often than 2 times a week. And also do not forget to thoroughly dry all the strands before carrying out the procedure. After all, this styling can only be done on dry hair.

Do not immediately decorate the finished hairstyle with massive accessories, as they can damage the shape of the styling. Try to avoid the scorching rays of the sun, as they can leave the strands vulnerable and thin after styling. Strands cannot be kept between the plates of the curling iron for a long time. Otherwise, they can be burned even with thermal protection.

Do not forget to wipe down the wipes thoroughly after each curling. It is better not to turn on the iron in the bathroom. And also it should not be left on a surface that melts easily. Handle the device only with dry hands. Be sure to check if you turn off the appliance after use.
