The curls will come out in that classic, perfect for special occasions way.

Natural curl

Hold the curls in your palm before releasing them. After finishing, you can play with your hands in the hair gently, for a wavier appearance.

Tight curl

Although it might take you some time, your curls will come out tight and extremely cute.

Twist curl

Let each hair section cool for a few seconds in your hand before real sing it. This technique will result in a unique type of digital curl.

If you like your hair curly, but don’t have that much time to spend styling it, you can always go for the loose curl hairstyle. Take thick sections of hair and wrap them around the barrel. After you curl each wrap use your finger to roll the strand up and down. This method will bring you loose waves that take little time to style and look simply amazing.

For each one of these styles, you can add a bit of hairspray at the end, just to make sure the curls remain intact for a longer period of time. Choose the best option for you and style your hair like a pro.
