Here Are 3 Tips to Help You Achieve Beautiful Curls Every Single Time:

1. Get the Right Tools. It’s important to get a quality curling wand with ceramic technology for an even heat distribution and to prevent damage to your hair (but, don’t forget to still apply heat protection before curling your hair). Also make sure your curling wand gets hot enough to curl your hair in order to avoid repeating the curling process and causing more damage to your hair (we recommend getting a curling wand with adjustable heat settings). Lastly, make sure to use the right size barrel for the type of curls you want to create. Use a smaller barrels to achieve tighter curls and bigger barrels for looser curls (we used a 1.5 inch curling wand when curling the models hair in the picture).

2. Let the Curl Cool Down. To make your curl last, make sure to let it cool down and set before styling it. The best way to do this is by using clips or pins to hold each curl in place while it cools down. An alternative is to hold the curl in your hand a few seconds before releasing it (as seen in the picture below).

3. Shake it Out. This is a very important step that many of us forget. In order to get a beautiful and natural looking finish to the hairstyle, shaking out your curls is key. To loosen up your curls, use your fingers to gently go through your hair. Or, if you want to create a more wavy looking style, brush through the hair (as shown in the picture).
