How to Curl Your Hair like the Salon

this video it's been requested for some time now i get asked all the time after my color services my clients are always like i cannot make my curls look like this they never last um so i said i'd make a video and i'll explain step by step for you guys how to create the same look okay so first off i'm going to brush my hair you're going to brush out all the knots and tangles [Music] then part your hair where you normally do so i'm going to go a little off center and then what i'm going to do is section from my ear all the way to the back so that's about two-thirds of my hair next i'm going to split that in half so it's in front of me this way it's easy for you guys to control the curling iron so i have right here it's the mint tool uh this one is the one inch and a quarter so i have two sections here with the curling iron if you have a clamp which i recommend because it does smooth out the hair when you're curling it always have it facing the mirror so you guys are my mirror right now and the clamp is always facing the mirror next i'm going to grab my hair you can split this into two sections or do it as one i like my curls pretty loose so i'm going to take a bigger section but you open the clamp make sure it's always facing the mirror and do a plus sign and do it as close to your scalp as possible okay then you're going to slowly turn the iron away and press on the clamp as you're pulling it down so if you imagine yourself driving it's like pressing on the brakes so you're not gonna like open it and close it but you're gonna gradually press on it as you're pulling it see that's the first curl so as long as you guys have the clamp facing the mirror the curls will always slip away from your face which is what we want again i did the plus sign i clamped it i'm gradually pressing on the clamp while pulling my hair down and then turning it okay do you guys see this it's pretty curly i'm not going to touch it i'm going to leave it like this and let it cool down next we're going to take from the temple all the way back okay and then you're going to section down the middle again so all your hair is in front of you you can see it you can see what's curled what's not um i find this is the easiest way so this is my second section this is quite big so i'm gonna split it into two okay and when you do this every time you split a whole section into smaller sections you want to start with the one in the back okay so i'm going to see clamp facing the mirror plus sign close to the root and i'm going to gradually turn this [Music] press on the clamp slide it down and i'm just repeating what i did earlier [Music] and then i once i got to the end you could let that go [Music] so i'm going to do the same to this section here plus sign clamp to the mirror turn away from the face okay gradually press down on the clamp while you're sliding this so it's not yanking on your hair and you just repeat these steps [Music] and as long as you have the clamp in front of you it's pretty easy you're just turning it this way and then you're turning it to the right side so again this section i'm splitting this into two starting with the back section the reason being is because i don't want to curl the front and then reach for the back one and this is kind of in my way now and you're constantly touching it plus sign turn [Music] turn slide turn [Music] so plus sign do you guys see that horizontal vertical clap close to the roots turn hold down on the cloud while i'm spinning or sliding okay oh and if you guys are wondering for the heat setting i have it on 390. but i like mine very hot if you have finer hair don't go so high okay we're gonna let this cool down we're not touching it last section so we split it in half we put it to the front so we can see everything so i'm gonna brush this and i'll probably split this whole thing into four sections because it's quite a bit of hair but we're starting with the back curling iron same thing plus sign you could rotate your head so it's easier instead of like twisting your arms back and gradually turn from the root slide while you're pressing on the clamp turn okay press on the clamps turn and voila okay so i'm gonna split this again last line turn clamp slowly turn clamp slide turn so right now plus sign close to the roots turn slide hold on the clamp turn slide hold on the clamp turn okay face framing pieces these guys so it really depends on how you style your your hair especially the front i have some clients that love the sweeping the sweeping bangs so if you're gonna do this start not so close to your roots so if you like it sweeping pull it to the front clamp it down and sweep it and then turn do you guys want to see how it's like this and i'll show you if you like it out of the way which i that's how i normally would do it i go very close to my roots yeah i like that volume here where it lifts it okay so we're gonna do the same thing on the other side make sure you can see all your hair in the back that's why i split it in half and pull it to the front that way you can see everything and you don't want any knots in there because when you're tapping your hair and you're pulling the iron through you don't want there to be knots because you're going to create kinks in your hair so i'm done curling my hair normally i would let it sit for five minutes i don't use hairspray um for my clients i do especially the ones who don't have volume normally i would tell you to flip your hair back like this and i would spray around your hairline the sooner you break it up while it's warm the looser it's going to be [Music] oh
