How to choose a tool?

Plowing is a wonderful waving tool that will help lay both short and long strands. Its use is possible both at home and on the road, because it does not require high power.

Basic principles of

Today on the shelves of stores there is a huge number of all kinds of ploys, and choosing the right one is not always easy, especially if you have not used it before. But in fact, everything is not as difficult as it might seem from the beginning: to choose the most qualitative, convenient and durable instrument, one should be guided by a number of characteristics:

  • One of the most important things to look out for is the type of material from whichits working surface is made. Often it is made of ceramics or metal, but there are others.
  • The selection of the temperature of the curling bar will depend on what type of curl you want to make. As a rule, the power of the fuse does not exceed 50 W, but more expensive devices can have more power - the range of the device can reach up to 200 degrees.

Important! To curl the large curls, the temperature of 100 degrees will be more than enough, and to create a small thick, you need a more powerful curl - this should also be taken into account.

  • The last important detail of any fuse is the nozzles that come with the kit. They are in the form of a spiral or cone, round or corrugated. In addition, there are nozzles-brushes and ironing.

Important! At the same time, curl and comb the strands with a brush brush, and with a corrugated nozzle you can make beautiful waves on straight hair. If the kit includes ironing, then - this model can be used not only for curling, but also for straightening the braces.

  • The last thing that the ploys differ in is the absence or presence of a clamp on them. It allows you to hold the lock in a certain position for a while, which is very convenient for creating well-defined curls.

Important! If the clamp is missing, then the hair will have to be held by hands, but in these cases, as a rule, there are heat-resistant gloves complete with a curling iron.

Classification of plates according to the basic principles of

Curling irons can be divided into several groups according to the following characteristics:

  • Configuration;
  • Surface coating;
  • Diameter;
  • Temperature and power.

By design and configuration:

  • Cylindrical is a classic version with a clamp and a round head.
  • Cone-shaped styler has a cone profile that narrows from the base to the head of the device. These are professional types of plaques: it is very problematic to wind hair yourself with such a device.
  • Triangular - with a cross section of a triangular shape.
  • Double - the design consists of two barrels, so that you can create zigzag waves.
  • Triple - with three barrels.
  • Spiral - such forceps will help to make tight curls with a clear shape.
  • Attaching volume at the roots - such models do not make ringlets.
  • Gofre - make waves in separate strands.
  • Rotating - the upper clamp of this device rotates around the axis in different directions, so that the hair is smoothed and wound.
  • Plait for creating large curls.

On the material of the working surface

The material of the working surface of the fuse is of great importance in the process of curling. Modern models can have the following coatings:

  • Tourmaline;
  • Teflon:
  • Ceramic;
  • Metallic.

What should I give priority to?

  • The last kind of coating is considered the most undesirable, since it damages the hair, making it split and brittle.
  • Teflon will protect hair from drying for a while. But this spraying has a property with time to wear off.
  • The ceramic coating works well with the base of the hair. Ceramics seals scales of hair, thanks to which their healthy state remains. For fuse, this material is the best. And the prices for such products are very even acceptable. However, there are drawbacks to these devices - ceramic fuses are fragile enough, so you need to use them carefully.
  • The newest models have tourmaline coating - they are even superior to ceramic curls in quality, but their high price is a significant obstacle for many.

By design and diameter

Depending on the design and diameter of the forceps, you can create curls of various shapes. There are stylers with removable nozzles, which can be regularly changed.

The most popular nozzles:

  • Zigzag - make curls angular;
  • Triangular - leave the tips straight;
  • Gofre - create crisp waves;
  • Nozzles that create curly elements;
  • Straighteners straighten natural curls.

For power and temperature mode

To properly use curling irons, you should choose the optimum temperature regime. Each device is equipped with a power and temperature controller, which must be adjusted for your hair type:

  • The standard temperature is 100-200 degrees. Naturally, the higher the temperature, the more damaged hair. Many modern models have a built-in display on which temperature parameters are displayed.
  • Optimum power of plaques 20-50 W.However, devices with a large capacity are bulky and not very convenient to use - this also needs to be paid attention when buying.

Important! Some curling irons for hair, manufacturers are equipped with an ionizer - it relieves hair of static electricity.

How to use the fuse?

Before starting with curling irons, the strands should be well washed and laid.

Important! It is best not to use any cosmetics such as varnish or mousse, since this can worsen the work of the machine: because of the heat, the hair is stuck together and clings to the forceps.

However, it is very useful to apply to hair products that provide thermal protection, especially in cases where your hair is already damaged: broken, split or there are other problems.

If you do not have a lot of experience with the fuse, it will be most convenient to use the device with a clip for fixing the hair. Typically, such models also have a manual temperature controller, which is also very convenient.

It's easy to use hair curlers: plug the cord into the outlet, select the appropriate temperature mode and start curling curls. Here there are following nuances - the temperature regime should be chosen taking into account the type of hair:

  • if you have damaged, discolored and brittle hair, then you need the lowest temperature mode;
  • if the hair and so wavy are average;
  • with very thick hair with a thick structure, you can use the maximum temperature effect.

Both short and long hair curl with a curl according to one principle:

  • Before starting the procedure, divide all strands into zones: two temporal zones and occipital( from the center of the head to the bang).
  • Lock all locks with hairpins and start curling from the back of the head.
  • Before curling, the occipital area also needs to be divided into several small strands with a comb.
  • So that it can be well curled, the maximum width of the buckles should be no more than 2.5 cm, otherwise you will not get to warm your hair and they will not be able to keep the desired shape.
  • In order to curl a lock, it is necessary to fix the forceps in an upright position to the roots, holding the curling plate as close as possible.
  • Strands need to be twisted, moving in a spiral, starting from the roots and going down.
  • During the whole procedure, the fuse should be fixed in one position, you just need to gradually lower it all the way down as the hair turns.

Important! After you wiggle the strand completely, select the direction for curling the tip, so that it does not break.

  • You can not hold the hair with curling irons for more than twenty seconds, after which you should go down and continue to curl the rest.
  • After you curl your hair at the nape of the head, go to the temporal part: as before, all the strands of this zone should also be divided into several, and then curl them on the same principle as the hair on the nape. After this, go to the second temporal region.
  • The last fronts the front-parietal part of the head.
  • After the curl is finished, leave the hair for a few minutes so that they can rest from the heat.
  • To complete the curl, comb the hair with a comb with sparse denticles, and then fasten the locks with varnish or other hair styling.

Important! This method of curling is considered classic, however, when you gain experience in using a curling iron, you can experiment with other curling options: for example, some girls begin to curl their hair not from the roots, but slightly away from them, so the hair looks more unusual. This way it is better to style long hair.
