Hair Curlers

Remember your moms’ hair curlers?
We’ll things have changed a bit since then. Hair curlers used to basically be one size fits all, however that’s not really the case anymore.
Today, you’ll find both heated and non-heated hair curlers. You’ll find those that are magnetic based, Velcro or foam. They also vary in length and width as well.
There’re a few tips and tricks on which hair curlers or rollers to use and how to use them, so let’s get down to business.

• The wider the hair curler or roller the more full and smooth the end result will be.
• A thinner curler or roller will give a bit of a tight, spiral-type result.
• For a longer lasting result, when using non-heated hair curlers or rollers, try setting them in before you take a shower. The steam from the shower will help the curls last twice as long.
• Avoid rolling your hair too tight. Doing so may cause future hair loss and I don’t know about you but that’s not something I want to mess with.
• Magnetic hair curlers or rollers are used on wet hair. They will add a nice and smooth curl with the volume that you are looking for.
• Velcro hair curlers or rollers are designed to give soft, full curls. The beauty about Velcro curls is they could be used on both wet and dry hair.
• Short, fine or brittle hair should consider Velcro hair curlers or rollers, since they don't need to be clipped in place. Clips are needed for longer, thicker hair.
• Foam hair curlers or rollers are designed to be used when your hair is dry. There are created for fragile hair since they are made of foam and sleeping on them is not an issue.
• To ensure that your hair is at its thickest use a bodybuilding mousse the morning-or day-before you plan to apply hair curlers or rollers.
• For naturally curly hair, it’s best to apply a smoothing serum to brush through the curls; which will make rolling your hair much easier.
• Give yourself plenty of time and let the hair curlers set. Twenty to thirty minutes is about normal.
• Carefully unwind the hair curlers or rollers. Be patient and don’t rush or you could end up with a tangled mess of hair.
• After removing all the curlers, gently run a brush through the curls to create a nice and big, soft, full wave.

Whether you have pin straight hair or the curliest of curls, applying hair curlers or rollers is a sure way to spice things up. It’s a fairly easy procedure, one that we all can do at home, with a little patience that is. Remember to always get creative. There is no rule- book on how to roll your hair. How you wear your hair is a reflection of who you are.
If you’re looking to be bold and make a statement, hair curlers just might do the trick.
