How to add curls using
hair straighteners
Many girls fancy a change from their poker straight hair
from time to time, and assume that you need to buy separate curling
tongs to curl the hair. However, if you follow these simple tips,
you could be using your favourite FHI
straighteners to curl your hair in no time.
After washing your hair, begin by applying a product that will help
to hold the curls in place once you have utilised your hair straighteners.
Many people find that using a small amount of mousse or hairspray
will hold any size curls in place.
In our experience, the quickest and easiest way to obtain the curls
you want it using a medium size straightening iron, such as the 1
inch FHI straighteners or GHD
hair straighteners.
One by one take a section of hair and beginning at the root, gently
to start holding the hair in the FHI straighteners and twist. Hold
the hair tighter so it wraps around the edge of the plates and pull
the hair straighteners to the ends of your hair while twisting.
Why not have some fun with your hair
straighteners and create some one off special effects
for a really daring night out. Take one inch sections of your hair
and wrap from top to tail in tinfoil; then starting at the bottom
fold consortia style back up to the root; then take your straighteners
and hold them on the folded wrap for a few seconds; allow to cool
before removing the foil. You will have amazing zig zag effect in
your hair!
Tips for Cleaning Ceramic Straighteners
Before cleaning the straightening irons, disconnect the unit from the mains. After turning your irons off, the ceramic plates will remain hot for a short period of time, during which you should exercise caution when handling the iron. Take great care never to drop the hair straighteners in water or any other liquid and avoid direct contact with water.
Wipe the casing of the FHI or GHD straighteners or whichever iron you use, with a moistened cloth, then wipe dry. The ceramic plates of the hair straighteners may be cleaned with a soft cloth and alcohol or glass cleaner, but never use any abrasive materials that may scratch the plates.
