TO STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR
To make styling easier, part the hair either in the middle or to the side and
use basic styling clips to section your hair, top, sides and back. You may
need to comb through your hair before straightening to ensure that it is
tangle free.
•
Start at the nape of the neck and straighten the underneath sections
of hair first. Then, move to the next layers, finishing with the hair
around the part line.
•
Taking about 5cm section of hair at a time, firmly holding the plates
together, run the straightener down through the entire length of the
section of hair from roots to ends, in one smooth stroke.
•
Repeat until the desired amount of straightening has been achieved.
TO CURL YOUR HAIR
•
Section your hair as above.
•
Take about a 5cm section of hair and firmly grip it between the plates,
close to the roots.
Note:
The smaller the section the tighter the curl.
•
Keeping tension firm, gently rotate the straightener 180° whilst pulling
through the length of the hair section.
•
Make sure to keep rotating the straightener all the way down
to the ends.
•
Removing the straightener and holding the hair length, allow the curl
to spring into shape.
