Are you tired of your same old straight hair and looking for a change? Loose curls can add volume and texture to your hair, making it look more glamorous and effortless. In this article, we will guide you on how to style your hair with loose curls.
How to
Before we start, make sure you have all the necessary tools: a curling iron, heat protectant spray, hairbrush, and hairspray. Here are the steps to achieve loose curls:
Step 1: Preparing your Hair
Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner, and apply a heat protectant spray to avoid any damage to your hair. Dry your hair with a towel and detangle it with a hairbrush.
Step 2: Sectioning your Hair
Divide your hair into sections, and clip them up to make it easier for you to curl. Start from the bottom sections and move upwards.
Step 3: Curling your Hair
Take a small section of your hair and wrap it around the curling iron, away from your face. Hold it for 10-15 seconds and release it. Repeat this step until you have curled all your hair.
Step 4: Separating your Curls
Once you have curled your hair, separate the curls with your fingers. Do not use a hairbrush as it will make your curls look frizzy and unnatural.
Step 5: Applying Hairspray
Finally, apply hairspray to set your curls in place. You can use a light or strong hold depending on your preference.
