Curling the hair
(We will be using a barrel tong to create spiral curls)
- Heat the tong up to around 25 degrees
- Start from the bottom
- Section the hair so that the majority is clipped on top of the head, but there is one section left down which you will curl
- Take a square section of hair and clip the end into the tong
- Wrap the hair onto the tong, ensuring the curlers are kept upright
- Use the comb to separate the tong and scalp if necessary
- Leave this on for about 12 secs
- Remove the tong by wiggling the wand out underneath the curl
- Clip this into place with a grip, to ensure it cools in this position
- Take another square section of hair and curl this piece in the opposite direction
- Alternate the direction of curls throughout the whole process
- Carry on curling the hair in sections, working your way up
- When you get to the top of the head, ensure the tong is vertical (facing down)
Crimping the hair
- Heat the crimpers up to about 190 degrees
- Section the hair off, starting from the bottom
- Ensure the section you take is not wider than the width of the crimper
- Firmly press and hold the crimper for 5-10secs
- Move down slightly, so that the waves join up - ensure you allow some slack so you do not pull the previous waves out
- Repeat this process all the way down the section and then all over the hair
