How to curl hair with a straightener



Curling hair with a straightener can create full, bouncy curls that won't look like ringlets. It takes a little practice, but once you get the technique down, you will look amazing and practically red-carpet ready. Follow these steps to learn how to get the beautiful curls you've always wanted – without using a curling iron.

Step 1: Start with clean, blow dried hair. If your hair is frizzy, run the straightener through large chunks just to smooth it a bit before curling.

Step 2: Take 1 inch sections and clamp the straightener on the hair and turn it to the right as you run it down the length of the hair. If your hair is long you may need to hold onto the ends of the hair to prevent them from slipping out. The more you turn the straightener, the tighter the curl will be. If your hair does slip out half way through the curl, pick up where the curl left off but you do not need to recurl the entire strand again, that will just cause further and unnecessary damage.

Step 3: Do that to your entire head and then take large sections and lightly run the straightener over large chunks of just the ends to give it a beachy look.

Step 4: Finish with hairspray and you are done!
