The method for curling short hair involves wrapping strands around a heated iron.
While the provided reference snippet is extremely brief, curling short hair effectively typically involves using a smaller barrel curling iron or wand. Here's a more detailed breakdown:
-
Use a Small Barrel Curling Iron/Wand: A smaller barrel (around 1 inch or less) is crucial for short hair, as it allows you to create tighter curls that are proportionate to the hair length.
-
Wrap Small Sections: Divide your hair into small sections. This ensures each strand is properly heated and curled.
-
Wrap Away from the Face: As you wrap each section around the iron, make sure to curl it away from your face. This will give a more open and flattering look.
-
Leave the Ends Out (Optional): For a more modern, textured look, leave the ends of your hair out of the curling iron.
-
Hold Briefly: Hold the hair around the iron for a few seconds (usually 5-10 seconds, depending on your hair type and the iron's heat setting).
-
Release and Repeat: Release the curl and repeat the process on the remaining sections.
-
Cool and Style: Allow the curls to cool completely before touching them. Then, use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to gently separate the curls. You can also use a texturizing spray or hairspray for hold.
