Curling already curly hair with rollers enhances and defines your natural curls, creating a polished and voluminous look. The process involves sectioning your hair, carefully rolling it onto curlers, and setting it with heat or air drying.
Sectioning and Rolling
-
Preparation: Start with clean, conditioned hair. Applying a curl-defining product before rolling can enhance the outcome.
-
Sectioning: Use a comb to create sections of your hair, typically 1-1.5 inches wide, as suggested in the provided reference. Begin at the crown of your head.
-
Rolling Technique: Wind each section of hair onto the curlers, rolling forward towards your forehead. This method, described in the reference, creates a specific curl direction. Experiment with different sizes of curlers for varying curl sizes.
-
Setting: Once all sections are rolled, use a blow dryer on a low heat setting for approximately 5 minutes to speed up the drying process, as recommended in the reference. Alternatively, you can let your hair air dry completely.
-
Removal: After your hair is completely dry, carefully unroll the curlers, gently separating the curls with your fingers.
Tips for Success
- Curl Type: The size of your curlers and the rolling technique should be adjusted depending on your natural curl pattern and desired outcome.
- Product Use: Using a curl-enhancing mousse or cream can help improve hold and reduce frizz.
- Heat Setting: Avoid high heat to prevent damage to your already-curly hair. Low heat or air drying is preferred.
By following these steps and tailoring them to your specific hair type, you can achieve beautifully defined and styled curls.
