1. Will using curling irons occasionally hurt your hair?
Occasional use of curling irons is not harmful to your hair. Curling irons are a kind of hairdressing DIY tool. After plugging in and heating, the heated iron body is used to curl the hair for half a minute and then released to make the hair curly. Occasional use will not cause any serious damage to the hair. When used occasionally, the hair is exposed to high temperature for a short time and will not cause serious damage to the hair scales. However, excessive use of curling irons is harmful to the hair. Frequent use will cause the high temperature of the curling iron to burn the hair scales, causing the hair to dry and turn yellow. According to statistics, people who often use curling irons have a 30% higher rate of water loss in their hair than those who do not use curling irons, and the rate of hair breakage will also increase by about 20%.
2. How to use curling irons
a. How to use ordinary curling irons:
Horizontal curling: Use a curling iron to curl the hair horizontally, which is more curly and natural. Remember to divide the hair into small strands, otherwise it will be difficult to curl.
Vertical curling: Just curl the hair along the curling rod, and also divide it into small strands to ensure that it is curled evenly.
Twist and then curl: Twist the hair and then use the curling rod to curl it for better results. When curling two layers, curl half directly, and twist the hair below and curl it up. The top will be more fluffy and the bottom will be more natural.
b. How to curl hair with a straightener:
General usage: Use a straightener like a curling iron, and the effect is similar.
Curl every other section: In addition to straightening, a straightener can also curl hair. Use a
strightener on every other section of hair, but this will easily become straight, so remember to use
a styling spray.
c. How to use a three-rod curling rod:
First, divide your hair into several sections, and the size of each section depends on the curling
effect you want. Then, wrap a section of hair around a curling rod, starting from the roots and
gradually curling to the ends. Keep the curling rod on the hair for a while to ensure that the curls
can maintain their shape. Repeat this step until all the hair is curled. Finally, wait for the hair to
cool completely, gently untie the curling iron, and use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to
gently comb the hair to make the curls more natural. Remember to use hairspray or
hair wax to fix the curls to keep them lasting.
d. How to curl hair with ordinary clips:
You can also curl hair with clips, but it is best to use some hairspray. You can braid your hair at
night and have natural curls the next day.
