How to Use a Hair Curling Iron

This article will explain how to use a hair curling iron. It will wlak you through ways to get the best curls out of your hair.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Curling iron
• dry washed hair

1. The first step to using a curling iron is to make sure it is plugged in and very warm. So depending on the iron give it adequate time to warm up.

2. The next step is to take a chunk of hair (not too much hair, because you want each strand to be able to be heated adequately enough to be curled.) It may take longer to curl your hair but the end product is much more worth it. Once you have the piece of hair place it between the iron itself and the clip of the iron. You move the iron all the way down toward the bottom of the hair and you begin to roll the hair over the iron.

3. When you are ready, gently push the button attahced to the clip of the iron a few consecutive times until the hair is released and your curl is done.

Tips & Warnings

• A great tip that I have learned is to actually straighten your hair beforeyou curl it. This gives the hair a better sheen after it is curled and tends to control some of the fly away hairs.
• Always be careful when working with items that are hot. There is a risk for being burned.
