To curl your hair with a deep waver, divide your hair in half, heat the deep waver to around 360°F (though it can go up to 400°F), and then clamp sections of your hair between the barrels to create deep waves.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
- Preparation: Start with dry hair. You can use hair clips to section off your hair, making the process easier.
- Heat the Deep Waver: Turn on your deep waver and set the temperature. A temperature of 360°F is often recommended, but adjust according to your hair type and thickness. Finer hair may require a lower temperature.
- Section Your Hair: Divide your hair into manageable sections. Working with smaller sections ensures that the waver evenly distributes heat and creates consistent waves.
- Waving Process:
- Clamp the deep waver down on the first section of hair near the roots (but be careful not to burn your scalp).
- Hold for a few seconds (refer to your tool’s instructions for the exact time).
- Release and move the waver down the section of hair, overlapping each new clamp with the previous wave to avoid gaps.
- Repeat this process until you reach the ends of your hair.
- Repeat on All Sections: Continue waving each section of your hair until your entire head is complete.
- Cool Down and Style: Allow your hair to cool completely before touching or styling it. This helps the waves set properly.
- Finishing Touches (Optional): You can gently separate the waves with your fingers for a more relaxed look. A light hold hairspray can help maintain the waves.
