Disclosure: Thanks to HERSTYLER for making this post possible. A curling iron set was provided for review purpose only. No other compensation was granted whatsoever. 
I am the girl "who generally prefers to wear her hair straight and smooth !" But today I am giving a slight twist to my straight mane.
I had always been reluctant about curling my hair, mainly coz of lack of information like:
  • what size curling iron to use ?
  • what styling products to use?
  • how to keep the curls to hold ?
  • how to hold the iron while curling and so on so forth?



Thanks to my amazing BFF who is popularly known as Youtube, for all those hair tutorials and HERSTYLER for sending me a curling iron with 5 different curling barrel sizes. Not only am I curling my hair effortlessly, but also have an easy-peasy foolproof tutorial video of my own to share.....


PRODUCTS USED :


  1. Herstyler 5P curler 
  2. Herstyler Argan oil styling spray 
  3. Heat gloves 

STEPS TO ACHIEVING THE PERECT CURLS:
  1. Prep your hair: Shampoo, air dry and straighten hair, if you have natural waves. 
  2. Apply generous amount of a heat-protectant.
  3. Going ear to ear, divide hair in three sections or more for thicker hair.
  4. Starting with the lowest section and from the front, take one inch section of your hair and wrap it around the wand. Try and hold the iron straight, slimmer end facing down. Hold for 6-8 seconds, release.
  5. For tighter curls use thinner hair sections and vice-versa. 
  6. Alternate with away from face and towards the face wand-rotation action.
  7. Continue doing till all the hair section is done.
  8. Play around with fingers for that tousled look.
  9. Finish off with a mist of styling spray.
