How to make curls curling on short hair?
Curling on short hair looks very feminine and sexy. There is nothing surprising in the fact that many girls prefer just such a package. Curling on the curling iron is very easy, and the shape of the curl depends on the type of instrument selected. However, not everyone knows how to make curls curling hair on short hair.
Which device to choose?
Manufacturers offer a large number of various devices for styling curls. It is easy to get confused, trying to choose the best. The most important thing to remember when choosing a curling iron: each type allows you to create a specific type of curls. Decide on what hairstyle you want to see in the end. This will allow you to easily find the right device. What kind of curling iron would you choose, remember that you need to choose tongs with a thermostat. Such models are a bit more expensive, but they will help keep your hair healthy.
It is worth considering the appropriate types of pleyek for short hair. First, decide on how you see your curls:
- To create curls, you need a large-diameter curling iron. For small curls it makes sense to buy tongs of small diameter. Professional options are much more expensive, but they allow you to create a very large curl.
Choosing a device of large diameter, pay attention to the recommendations of the manufacturer. Often the heating of such forceps does not reach temperatures above 150 degrees. This means that after curling with them, you get light waves.
- An alternative option is a cone curling. Its diameter varies at the tip and at the base, which allows you to adjust the size of the curl at will. Moreover - curls, wound on such a curling iron, look more natural. As a rule, the cone curling iron is not made in the form of forceps (there is no possibility to “pinch” the hair with the help of a valve). Be careful when working with such a device, there is a risk of burning your arm. Many manufacturers supply a special glove that protects the hand from burns. If you purchased a curling iron without such a glove in the kit, it makes sense to buy it separately.
- For curling short hair perfect triple curling iron. With its help, you can create beautiful smooth waves along the entire length. Such a device is not used for clipping pixies. If the length of hair allows (cutting bob, square), this device will allow you to create an interesting feminine image.
Currently, there are a large number of ployok, differing not only in shape but also in the type of coating. Try to give preference to appliances with a ceramic coating, they are less traumatic for hair. Iron tongs are cheaper, but they are very harmful.
If you wear a “boyish” haircut, which requires correction every month, an iron curling iron is a suitable option for you, since damaged hair will still be cut regularly.
What kinds of curls fit better?
It would seem that the options for styling short hair is not so much, but it is not. There are several suitable methods for laying this length:
- Large curls. This style will perfectly fit into a casual look, as well as suitable for publication. In addition, large curls will be a salvation for girls who grow hair, as they will hide uneven tips. Large curls can be made as glamorous Hollywood, and more natural.
- Waves. Wavy hair looks very short on short hair. Gentle image, complemented by such styling, will not leave anyone indifferent. Creating a hairstyle does not take much time, and the hair laid in waves looks as natural as possible.
- Fine curls. The similarity of a perm returned to fashion not so long ago and has already won the hearts of many girls around the world. Naughty naughty curls perfectly emphasize the oval of the face, but this styling is contraindicated for chubby girls.
- "Hollywood Wave". Four of a kind, laid on one side in the form of a Hollywood wave - a classic of the genre for the red carpet and not only. Such styling looks very elegant, elegant - and at the same time it does not require much effort to create.
Hair preparation for perm
If you are going to start curling, you need to properly prepare the hair to minimize the negative impact of styling appliances:
- Wash your hair using a moisturizing balm, dry the strands with a towel.
- Use a heat shield. This is a mandatory daily procedure - even if you do not style your hair with a hair dryer and forceps every day. Thermal protector protects hair from ultraviolet rays, protecting them from burning out and drying out.
- Apply mousse for styling. Choose a tool based on the original texture of your hair: if you are the owner of curly or wavy hair, you will need a tool with a minimal degree of fixation, if your hair is heavy and straight, choose a high fix mousse.
- Now dry your hair with a hair dryer using a diffuser nozzle. If you don’t have one, dry your hair with your head down. This will make the hair more voluminous. Do not use a comb, as wet hair is very easy to injure. You can comb your hair only after it has been dried by about 70-80%.
- Divide the hair into zones (occipital, temporal, parietal), to make it easier to wind the hair.
After all these preparations, begin to curl curls.
Classic curls
Getting classic curls with a curling iron is not that difficult. It is worth exploring the walkthrough, and then you can do everything as nicely and quickly as possible:
- Decide what effect you want to end up with. To create natural careless curls, you should curl your hair in a random order. For a more glamorous image, stick to a certain direction of curling: to the face or away from the face.
- Begin the curl from the back of the head. Keep the curling iron strictly horizontal to make a classic curl. Turning the tongs vertically, you get a curl-spiral.
- Separate a small strand, well comb it and wind it on the curling iron. Heat the strand for 20 seconds, no more, so as not to overdry your hair. Try not to twist too much hair at a time, because they are unlikely to twist into the correct curl, and in the end you only get small waves.
- Scroll the whole mass of hair and let the curls cool.
- Now tilt your head back and fix the finished styling with hairspray. Do not comb your hair - so you risk to spoil the entire structure of styling. Better mix curls with your fingers (for a more casual look).
Laying with the help of "harness"
Laying in the technique of "harness" is very popular, but not every girl knows how to curl her hair in this way. By the way, just such a technique is used when laying the famous "Hollywood wave." To put the hair in the technique of "harness", it will take a little more time, but the result will greatly please you. The procedure is as follows:
- As with the creation of classic curls, the curl should start from the back of the head.
- Separate strand a couple centimeters wide and twist it into a free flagellum.
- Now wind the flagellum on the curling iron and let it warm up for 15–20 seconds.
- Neatly remove curl with curling (without unwrapping) and let it cool in this state.
- Wind the same way all a bunch of hair.
- As a result, you will get tight curls. Fix hair with lacquer.
- If the option with tight curls does not suit you, do the following. Lightly spray hair with lacquer. Now gently comb your hair with a comb with large teeth. You will get large glamorous waves that will perfectly fit into the evening look.
Curling in the "harness" technique opens room for experimentation. Hair laid in such a way can look fresh and interesting, if you leave tight curls. On the other hand, luxurious waves will make your look more solid.
