Tips For Curling Your Hair

Are you looking to curl your hair but only have a flat iron available? Don’t worry, you can still get amazing results with a flat iron. Check out our handy tips below.

When using your a flat iron to curl your hair, use it in a similar way as a curling iron by wrapping your hair, but make sure not to close the flat iron completely. Don’t wrap too much of your hair round the flat iron at once, as it will be too tough to curl in the desired effect. You can avoid curling the tips of your hair till the end as they don’t require much heat to curl.

(If you have blonde hair, use less heat and scale up, otherwise your hair may darken.)

How To Make Fine Hair Look Thicker

Fine hair is a problem many males have. If you want to make your hair look like it has volume and thickness, then check out the tips below.

This is obvious, but use thickening shampoo and conditioner . These were created to give fine hair more support and density. Alpecin is a good shampoo to use.

One common mistake made by men with fine hair, is the use of heavy styling products. Styling products add weight and separate hair, so if you have fine hair we recommend you use a tiny amount of product, or use hairspray.
