How To Get The Perfect Curls Each Time

I might have curled my hair a million times but every time I do it I feel like an amateur- someone who will never graduate from the dummie stage, but I still somehow manage to surprise myself. Over the years I’ve pretty much used the same size barrel, but for this one I used a smaller barrel and I loved the results. The curls were relatively tighter in the beginning but as they opened up the curls looked softer, wavier and beautiful.

Some Tips

The curls work well the second day of shampooing. The hair will hold the curls better and there will be less flyaways the second day.

Unless you have naturally straight hair, I would recommend running the straightener through your hair once. This will straighten your natural waves to give more defined curls with the curling iron.

Always section and curl. When curling the face framing layers, rotate the curler away from the face. This way the curls will stay off the face and give a more manageable look.

Don’t worry if the curls appear tight, just run your fingers through you hair and the curls will loosen, do it till you get the desired tousled look.

💁🏻‍♀️ For the past four years or ever since I started using a curling iron, I used the same larger barrel size but this time I used the 1/2” barrel and the results were beyond impressive. The curls loosened further to give me the tousled look I’d always wanted.

Tools Used

5 Piece Herstyler curling iron – I’ve had that for a few years now and it is my most used curling iron. It was a gift from one of my sponsors and I love how it has five different size barrels. I have moslyt used the 1.5″ one but for this tutorial I decided to try on the 1/2″ one and the result is pretty impressive. I love how the curls came out, they loosened up further for a much softer look.

Herstyler styling spray– This hairspray is lightweight and gives shine to your styled hair. I would highly recommend using this one.
