Things You'll Need:
- curing iron

Step 1
There are different sizes in curlers. If using on short hair than use a small curler. The longer the hair the bigger the barrel on a curler. Some curlers have a thermostat which allows you to control the heat. Others have a pre heated system. While using a curler your hair must be dry.
-
Step 2
Decide what style you want to do with your hair. For example, if you want your hair down (a relaxed look) : Part your hair according to your style. Take the curler and put your hair in between the curler about half an inch from your roots.
-
Step 3
Slide the curler straight down as if you are in one stroke (this tends to straighten the hair)Do not let the curler stay in the hair ,never because this will burn the hair. Always keep the curler moving.
-
Step 4
Now start turning the curling inward. This will give your hair a inner curl affect. If you want a flip(outer curl) give the stroke to the hair as mentioned above and when you get to the bottom of the hair move the curler in an upper motion.
-
Step 5
While using the curler there is a hand release which opens the curler and closes it. Practice with it for a few minutes. If you want a Farrah Fawcett look the starting from the bangs curl hair in an upward/backward motion.
-
Step 6
Remember that you must use care with electrical products. In addition a hair protection creme or spray should be used when using hair appliances. This protects the hair from heat damage such as breakage. These products are sold at hair supply stores.
-
Step 7
Last, it is important to keep hair in the curler for only a second or two. Investing in a curling iron with a thermostat is best, this lets you control the heat. In addition always use the low setting s first and build your heat up as needed. Remember to always keep the curler moving.
