Using a BaByliss automatic curler, like the Curl Secret model, involves placing a section of hair into the device's chamber, closing it to allow the hair to be automatically drawn in and heated, and then waiting for a series of beeps before releasing a perfect curl.
Here’s a simple guide on how to use your BaByliss automatic curler:
Getting Started
Before you begin, ensure your hair is clean, dry, and combed through to remove any tangles. Plug in your curler and wait for it to heat up to the desired temperature setting.
Step-by-Step Usage
Follow these steps to create beautiful curls with your BaByliss automatic curler:
- Prepare a Section: Take a section of hair, typically no wider than 1-1.5 inches (consult your specific model's instructions for ideal size). Ensure the section is straight and ready to be fed into the device.
- Position the Curler: Hold the curler with the opening of the curl chamber facing towards your head.
- Place Hair in Chamber: According to the reference, you will "place it in there" meaning you guide the prepared hair section into the opening of the curl chamber.
- Close and Curl: "And then you're going to clasp. It closed," as mentioned in the reference. Closing the handles will automatically draw the hair section into the ceramic curl chamber where it will be gently held and heated. The device "it'll twist it. Around inside."
- Wait for the Signal: Keep the handles closed until the device emits beeps. The reference specifically notes, "And then you're going to wait for five beeps." These beeps indicate that the curl is set. The number of beeps may vary depending on the heat and timer settings selected on your model.
- Release the Curl: Open the handles fully to release the perfectly formed curl. Gently pull the device away from your head.
- Repeat: Move to the next section of hair and repeat the process until all desired sections are curled.
- Cool and Style: Allow the curls to cool completely before styling or brushing through them. This helps set the shape for long-lasting results.
Tips for Best Results
- Always use on dry hair.
- Start with small sections for defined curls. Larger sections will produce looser waves but may not fit correctly in the chamber.
- Ensure the hair section is straight and untangled before feeding it into the device.
- Place the device correctly with the opening facing your head.
- Wait for the beeps – this is crucial for setting the curl. Do not open the handles before the beeps stop.
- Let curls cool down before touching them.
By following these steps, you can effectively use your BaByliss automatic curler to achieve salon-quality curls at home.
