I've had a few requests for this tutorial, so I hope you like it! I had a lot of fun editing it :) I really like doing these curls, they last way longer than curling iron/wand ones. Also- it totally looks like I'm balding in a few frames but I'm just in desperate need of a root touch up, haha. Let me know if you try this out!!

I will have to try this! My hair hates to keep a curl, so maybe this will work.
ReplyDeleteThe best part about it is that these curls last a long time, the next day I still have great hair!!
DeleteYou have the cutest accent!
ReplyDeleteHa! I've been told I sound like a Midwestern Valley Girl :)
DeleteThanks so much for posting this! I've tried doing curls with my straight iron the other way (wrapping it) and it just doesn't work for me. I'm gonna give this a shot! :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see how they turn out!
DeleteI love curling with a flat iron for this very reason. The curls you tend to get look so much softer and "natural". Your hair looks lovely! :)
ReplyDeleteExactly! And they hold up way better too! Thank you :)
DeleteSuch a good idea! I tried the whole "wrapping it around the straightener" thing but could never get it to work. I'll have to try this out.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't get it either! The videos make it look so easy, but I just looked goofy!
DeleteLove this idea! I have been craving waves but don't have a curling iron this semester, definitely trying this asap :)
ReplyDeleteTime Stand Still
I haven't used my curling iron once since I learned this way!
DeleteAhh! You're so cute! Nice work, mama! I will def. try this! :) Nice to hear your voice, too! :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteGreat how-to!

Cool video, thanks for sharing! I've tried dozens of ways to curl my hair but I've never heard of using a straightener like this! What temperature do you set your straightener on? My hair is baby fine hair but I have a lot of it, and Im always worried about it getting dired out.. but your hair looks a lot thicker than mine. Do you ever have any issues with your hair getting too dry?
ReplyDeleteI have mine set on the highest temperature (I think it's 450). My individual hairs are very thin, but I have a lot of them. I wouldn't say my hair is thick, my ponytail is pretty teeny :) I use a silk treatment (Biosilk) that keeps it from feeling dry, and I use thermal protective mousse. Hope that helps!!
DeleteYou look so cute in this video!
ReplyDeleteI used to use a straightener to curl my hair when it was longer. But I think I like your way better. The curls look tighter than I could ever get mine to be.
Thanks for the awesome tutorial!
Adorable! I'm totally trying this out! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteNooh I had never seen you move before! Haha! You are so cute!
