11 Tips to Create the Perfect Curls and Waves

Curls always look glamorous and trendy. Lot of women will remember their visit to a hairdresser when they were young to get curly hairstyles. Several celebrities have inspired us to try out curls and waves.

From Oprah’s perfectly curled tendrils to Sarah Jessica Parker’s natural curls and Beyonce’s sexy and wavy look, several women have tried to copy these celebrity hairstyles. Here are some tips and tricks for hairstylists to create Hollywood style sexy curls in your client’s hair.

11 Tips to create sexy curls

1. Once you’re sure that the hair is clean and ready for styling, separate the hair into manageable sections. To prevent loose hair from hindering your work, simply clip all sections separately.

2. Be careful to to keep the curls slightly above the level of the eyes when you’re working on the front section.

3. If your client wants longer curls, make sure you keep the stems up while curling.

4. Selecting the right curling iron for the right part of the hair is critical when you’re dealing with curls. Most stylists use the 1 1/4 inch curling iron for side sections, and 2 inch curling iron for the back section.

5. To prevent burning the scalp of your client, always apply heat on the curls starting from the midway away from the scalp as the curls start to take the desired shape.

 6. Working on the crown area can be tricky. Make sure you’ve clipped all the other hair curls properly before handling the top section of the head.

7. While curling the hair, always apply heat starting from the stem.

8. To add shine to curls, you can make use of a soft brush and some shine spray.

9. Keep in mind to brush the hair from the same side that you started to curl.

10. A handy way to give a definite shape to the curls is by pressing the curling iron at specific points. Once you get the required bend, you can stop the curling/pressing process.

11. To wrap up, just use your fingers (gently) to shake the curls. This will make them look naturally free falling.

Conclusion

While several women like curls, others avoid it because they want to keep changing their look. Finding your best hairstyle can take time but till then you can try temporary curls or beach waves, especially during the summer months.

Creating beautiful curls is easy if you follow the right approach and are careful with using the curling iron. It is important to manage the heat on curling iron properly while making waves as it will eventually show up on the scalp if not well balanced.
