A celebration is planned or theater tickets are bought. I want to look beautiful, but in the hairdresser all the masters are busy. Do not despair: if a few minutes walk to the nearest supermarket, then go for curlers.
If you want small curls, then it is better to buy foam sausages, for large curls choose a plastic construction with a “hedgehog” or the classic version. It remains to learn how to properly wind the hair on the curlers - and you can get down to business.
This process cannot be called complicated, but it also requires some skill and patience, if the curlers themselves, a comb with small teeth and a long handle and a spray bottle filled with boiled water are already at hand, on the dressing table .
- Before dividing your hair into strands, it is worth washing it with shampoo, slightly drying it with a warm towel.
- If you want to give volume to your hair, then take a small amount of hair per strand. The more curlers are used in the process of creating a hairstyle, the more magnificent it will come out.
How to wind your hair on curlers?
- Work should begin from the middle of the head. Separate a thin strand with a pen (no more than 0.5 cm thick), the width of which should be slightly less than the width of the curler. Comb it to make it smooth, sprinkle with water if it is dry, or apply foam, mousse, medium or strong hold hair styling gel.
- Carefully position the tips of the strand on the surface of the curler and twist them inward, applying force so that the strand resembles a tightly twisted roll. Secure the structure with an elastic band or a special cover near the head.
So the occipital, front part of the head (from the little head to the forehead) and the sides (from the little head to the ears) is wound, and the distribution of hair goes from top to bottom, in even rows.
To learn about how to wind your hair on curlers, it is worth listening to the advice of professionals.
Key recommendations are listed below. Learning how to wind hair on curlers is quite simple:
- short strands are easier to style in the hairstyle, if the ends of the hair are wrapped with wax paper or gauze;
- for long hair there is a special way of styling: the middle of the head is wound on large "loaves", the back of the head - on medium-sized curlers, the neck area is trusted in small "sausages".
You should not constantly sleep on curlers, especially on plastic or metal, and blow dry your hair with a hairdryer. Straw in curls looks as unaesthetic as greasy strands.
Modern industry produces curlers for short hair, which are called bobbins. The most common option is wooden sticks, dissected by a cross on the end on both sides. To wind the hair on them is wet, so that the curl turns out perfect. Such a “perm” gives a firm curl if you moisten each strand with a strong hold gel.
You can use thermal curlers, if only they were small in size. You should not abuse them, but if you need to look amazing after an hour, then these devices are ideal.
Large Velcro curlers (also called hedgehogs) in a couple of hours will add volume to thin and weakened hair, but you will have to use a hairdryer.
Velvet designs will soften the curl, and the hair after them will look like natural curls.
Homemade curlers give a puppet effect if you twist locks of hair on flagella of paper or rags. To get a mane of a lion, it is enough to create spirals of cotton wool and duralumin foil. Such devices can be operated for several months.
