Tips for curling hair easily?

I hate curling my hair. It always takes a lot of hairspray to make it stay, and it can take up to two hours. What's a good way to curl it easier. I've heard of hot rollers, and velcro rollers, but what should I know about them, how much do they cost, and how do you use them. What are some alternative ideas? I have layered hair, with bangs going straight across, and my hair is just past my shoulders, in case you need to know. Please and thank you.Tips for curling hair easily?
The biggest tip for curling your hair fast and efficiently is using a professional iron. THe reason why curling your hair takes hours is because if the iron doesn't get hot enough, the curls don't form fast, meaning you have to hold the iron in place for a longer time with shorter results.



Try getting yourself a Hot Tools iron, which can be found here:

before you curl your hair, try using mousse instead of hairspray. Apply an even amount of mousse into your hair, brush it through, and either blowdry it or let it airdry before yous tart curling your hair. NEVER put your iron on moist hair.



Curl your hair in 1 inch sections, leaving the hair on the iron until the outer layer of the hair is warm, then let go. repeat, and finsih with hairspray. If you want to style your curls DO NOT TOUCH THEM UNTIL THEY ARE COOL. doing so will result in your curls unwraveling.



Good luck!Tips for curling hair easily?
try pomade and a light holding hairspray.

its so easy and really cute for any occastion.



use pomeade like a sticky gel or moouse, and spray your hair down with the hairspray. and crunch your hair while blowdrying.. looks fab!
well you could get a perm at a salon or you could put productget in it after you get out of the shower to make it look more natural
A tip for making your curls stay longer is to start out curling a strand as you would normally. When you hair is hot on the iron release the hair a little and roll it back up for about another 10 seconds. You can also try spraying your curl while it's still on the iron, just clean your iron when you are done curling all of your hair.

You might also want to try different hair sprays, maybe your current spray isn't working for your hair texture.

I don't have any tips for making the process quicker except for the fact that it shouldn't take you two hours to curl hair that is just past your shoulders.

I would use sponge rollers tonight and hair spray tomorrow.....but if you are going to needed it tomorrow night hot rollers will work and it will take a little over an hour. I would use product like paul mitchell... but you can always get good ones at wal-mart too. tresemme also holds really good and is a cheaper kind...Hot curlers?Any curlers?Rollers.?
I agree with cassie.

Sponge Rollers actually work(at night), and then hairspray the next day.

Help me with my straight hair that won't curl!

Alright. I have naturally straight, blonde hair. It's medium thick/thin. I want to be able to curl it with a flat iron or with a curling iron. But the problem is, my hair is too silky, so no matter how much i try (even with hair spray) my hair will not curl. School starts in a week and i want my hair to look good. I would like for it to look kinda similar to Jenny Garth's hair on What I Like About You (just to give you an idea.) Any suggestions with how I should curl it? When I use hot rollers or sponge rollers over night it usually gives me too much of a curl. I want it to be a loose curl. Help! And no rude answers pleaaase!! Thankkks!!Help me with my straight hair that won't curl!
ummm my hair is really hard to curl but it works with a curling iron....ummm try putting your hair in about 6 braids and then use a flat iron and flatten it on the braids...it makes it wavy so im not sure that it will be exactly what your looking for but it might help..try it out before the first day of school so that if it loooks bad it doesnt matterHelp me with my straight hair that won't curl!
ever thought about perming it? just have the loose wave style, and please bring a photo of the hair style. sometimes some stylists get carried away
PRODUCT! you need some products to put in your hair to help you hair curl easier and stay that way. try getting a curl activating spray at a beauty store. ask the people who work there, theyll know what to get for you. for loose curls, id reccomend using a 1.4 inch curling iron. its perfect for curls that are loose and wavy.
It sounds really gross, but hair holds style better when it's dirty, so try waiting a day or two (depending on how quickly your hair gets gross, if you have straight hair, you should probably just wait a day) after washing it and then try and curl it. I have naturally curly hair and to get it straight (which is probably just as hard as you trying to curl your hair) I have to wash it at night and straighten it in the morning. Also, make sure the curling iron you're using is small enough (barrel curls normally fall out in hair like yours).

How do you curl your hair?

In a week I will be going to a dance, and this is like the middle school prom-- kind of a big deal!!! I have thin, blonde, layered hair that falls about an inch below my shoulders. I have a curling iron, a flat iron, and hot rollers at home. I can't buy anything new. I'm just going to leave it down with the curls--no outrageous up-dos or anything. Also, I prefer tighter curls to looser ones.

I'd also like to know how to keep it held for a long time and last through all the dancing.



Thank you SOOO much--I really appreciate it!How do you curl your hair?
I use my CHI! luv it! it only takes about 10 minutes too, but it does do loose curls.How do you curl your hair?
i dont know im a guy
get gel and curl with your fingeer; to keep it for a long timee usee profesional spray,if you have...;
u can try hair spray of moose
shampoo your hair put some mousse or jel in it dry with blow dryer and use your hot rollers take 2 inch by 2 inch sections and roll them up let set in hair for about a half hour or so take them down and flip your hair over and use your fingers as a pick and run them through your hair flip your hair back and use your fingers again to tame it down don't brush your hair or you'll lose the curls make sure you put hairspray on it to hold the curls practice a few times before the prom so you have it down
i have REALLY straight hair and it wont last more than a couple hour and my sister has the problem until a while ago. u have to be patient and part ur hair and use ur curling iron to curl ur hair really tightly and as soon as u let it go put strong hold hairspray on it and just keep doing that with everythiung and before u nkow it everything will be pretty and curly! :D
First off you need to do your hair at least once before hand so you know what you want and how to do it. second go in the black hair styling products area and get a hair spritz called ';Stiff Stuff';. This stuff holds like nothing else. Use a smaller barrel curling iron and small amounts or hair. after you curl it let it cool DON'T BRUSH IT OUT. you will loose your curl. finger comb it into small curls . Good luck have fun.
to start wash your hair the day before you want to style it if your hair is thin. if not your hair will be to silky.Depending on what type of curls you want,there are different techniques.If you want spirals either use a spiral curling iron or a regular one with your hair wrapped around the outside.If you want to use hot rollers this is a instructional video http://www.ehow.com/video_1325_curl-hair鈥?/a>

if your using a flat iron this a good instructional video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k57daS_c_鈥?/a> and when your finished use non crunch hairspray

Im african american & i want spiral curls in my hair but if i put rollers in it will they still be spiraled?

My mother says i might be able to have the spirals for one day if I use a hot curler, but when i put rollers in them at night, she thinks the curls wont be spiraled anymore. How should I tie my hair up at night? Or how can i make them spiraled w/o a hot curler or with just rollers?Im african american %26amp; i want spiral curls in my hair but if i put rollers in it will they still be spiraled?
I wear spiral curls daily. I roll up my hair nightly and sleep on them and I have spiral curls. Just roll up your hair vertically and remove the curlers and I just let them hang and they will loosen up and I have spiral curls. I never use hot curlers. Everyone says I wear my hair like Shirley Temple.Im african american %26amp; i want spiral curls in my hair but if i put rollers in it will they still be spiraled?
just rollers should work! the smaller the tighter though. my african american friend has doen it before and its worked out fine
Rolling with rollers should be fine as long as you make sure to wrap the hair from top to bottom on the rollers. I use plain old sponge rollers and I get some really cute curls with it.
use spiral rollers they are sold at beauty supply stores.........put them in when your hair is wet and then sit under a dryer....not sure if you can sleep in the rollers but if not just wear a bonnet (also at beauty supply) at night and use your fingers to fix them a little in the morning
Omg your hair might be different but my hair is SUPER curly when I put on rollers but you'll have to hairspray the curlers after you take them out...just roll them on and don't do anything then the next day take em off....hot curlers will ruin/damage/dehydrate your hair even though it's a quicker method.

How to curl defiantly straight hair and make it last?

My hair is so straight that even if I curl it all the way up until I look like sherley temple it will fall straight within a couple hours. I have given up on the idea of curling my hair because it is a waste of my time. I have hot rollers but I can't get the curls tight enough to stay in for long, they are okay. I have a curling iron and that only does so much because my hair falls out again anyway. i try to use a lot of hairspray but my hair looks like plastic and silly. I've tried pin curling with no luck. My aunt recently did my hair with a flat iron and it worked pretty good I'm seriously considering to use a flat iron to curl my hair but I need opinions from someone with the same problem. What is the best flat iron to use or a top 4 I don't wanna pay too much money for one but I reallly would like to solve my problem.How to curl defiantly straight hair and make it last?
Do what they did in the old days and use 'rags'. Just twist you hair with spare pieces of cloth before you go to bed and slip a hairnet or the end of the stocking on your head. In the morning your hair will be curlier than Shirley Temple.How to curl defiantly straight hair and make it last?
Use a flat iron to curl. Technique: put the end of your chosen piece of hair in the flat iron. Roll the hair around the iron tightly, hold for about 30 seconds and let the hair drop from the flat iron. This should give your curls some sexy volume and cute style that lasts all day without the use of product.
you could use a hot iron, but that's not too good for your hair. i use curlers myself but i apply mousse to my hair beforehand. i use garnier fructis mousse, called XXL Volume Thickening Mousse. it usually lasts a couple of days which is good.



try it, good luck!
I have the same hair as you. I know how you feel. I would love wavy locks. I have some foam rollers and some rag rollers. If I wind my hair when it is almost dry in very small sections then sleep in them overnight my curls last until the next day with some loosening (unless it rains on me of course) It is a bit uncomfy to sleep in them and I would be wholly embarrased if the fire alarm went off but it works and it doesn't damage my hair like heated tools. The foam rollers will only set you back a couple of pounds and rag ones you can make yourself...I've found some links to show you how to make them.



Happy curling

How do I use my hot rollers?

My husband bought me these expensive ceramic hot rollers that come with all different size rollers and tons of clips. I am clueless about how to use them. I have long straight hair that is to my waist and I haven't even tried to use these hot rollers yet because I know I will get frustrated. I am not very good at doing my hair, tis true. Will they burn me if I touch them? Like a curling iron would burn? I feel like an idiot. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thanks.How do I use my hot rollers?
I have them, and they work great!! heres a video to show you how:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCJ31cuIK鈥?/a>
