How to curl hair curling?
Every woman wants to be beautiful. And in striving for the ideal, special attention is given to beautiful ladies to their hairstyle, trying to create volumetric luxurious curls. In this article you will find detailed information about everything related to the process of creating magnificent curls.
Types of devices and attachments
The result of the future hairstyle directly depends on the quality of the curling. It is unlikely that you will be able to achieve perfect curls using very bad technique. In addition, the type of curls also varies with the types of devices. Consider the main types of pletholes that can be found in modern stores:
- conical;
- double and triple;
- spiral;
- triangular;
- self-twisting;
- cylindrical with clamp.
There are still separate devices for forceps for the formation of basal volume, irons for straightening hair. As well as functional models with special nozzles that can be changed, eg:
- bumps,
- zigzag,
- triangle and others.
In addition to the shape, curling irons are distinguished by coating. It happens:
- tourmaline,
- ceramic,
- Teflon,
- metal.
Metallic coating is the most common. However, if you use it too often without special protective agents, your hair may deteriorate significantly.
Ceramic coating is considered the most benign. When using ceramic curling hair scales seem to be soldered, from which the strands look much more well-groomed and beautiful. The main thing is to choose devices whose working surface is completely covered with ceramics, since such spraying is quickly erased. Also, when using the device, it should be remembered that ceramics is a very fragile material.
Also, when buying a device should consider it power and temperature conditions. The quality of the result of curling directly depends on such indicators. You should not save on the purchase, if you are going to regularly twirl your hair with the help of hot tongs. Devices of high quality will not only save you time to create styling, but will also affect curls as gently as possible.
