Accessories needed for curling: ironing, comb with small tooth, mirror, foam or mousse, fixation lacquer, balm or any nourishing cream.

How to make curls with ironing? For a correct procedure, a certain temperature regime of the rectifier is needed, approximately 160 degrees. For thin, brittle, slightly wavy or straight hair, the degrees of the rectifier can be taken below: 110-150 degrees. If the hair is hard, strongly curly - the iron is adjusted for a large temperature: from 170 to 200 degrees.

There are several ways how to make curls with ironing:

1. The straightener should be kept perpendicular to the head, as close to the skin as possible. While holding the ends of hair, rotate the iron 180 degrees, and then turn it to yourself.

2. All the time, holding the end of the strand, moving the rectifier along it with smooth movements, constantly turn it.

3. Turn the rectifier down 180 degrees, hold along the strand for 1-2 cm. Then rotate 180 degrees in the opposite direction. So, moving the tool in one direction or the other, bring it to the end of the strand.

To get beautiful locks with ironing, you should know that with slow smooth movements, the curl turns out to be stronger (steeper). The faster the iron moves, the more smooth the curl turns. If the first try is not achieved, then after 20 seconds, necessary for cooling hair, the procedure can be repeated.

At the tip, the iron must be pulled down, holding the strand higher, and smoothly twirling it in the desired direction. Then comb with a large step comb it, give the right direction and fix it with a hair spray. After applying the varnish on each strand immediately after waving the hairstyle will retain its shape for a long time.
