Hairstyling Appliances: Tips and Tricks
<< PREVIOUS PAGE Tips: Number 1: Curling irons only work well on completely dry hair. If your hair is even a little damp, the resulting curls will be limp, if they manage to hold at all. (Using a flat-iron on still-damp hair only serves to swell the hair shaft. Applying the concentrated heat of the flat iron's elements onto the damp hair basically "cooks" the hair, and can seriously damage it.) Number 2:Curls formed using a curling iron must be allowed to cool fully before they are manipulated further. (Likewise, segments straightened with a flat iron should be left to cool to prevent reversion to the previous curl pattern.) Wrap the segment of hair around the curling iron barrel, hold the tool in place for a few seconds to evenly heat the hair, then gently slide the barrel out of the curl and allow it to sit in place until it cools. Number 3: Lightly misting the segment of hair with hairspray will give a stronger hold to the resulting curl, or will help to eliminate frizz in flat-iron styles. ©hairfinder.com Beauty Supplies Combs and Brushes More Hair Styling Techniques |
