How do you create curls with hair straighteners?

Apparently you can curl hair with hair straighers but does anyone know how to do it, I alway just end up with flicks!!!How do you create curls with hair straighteners?
Hey, go on www.ghdhair.com and click on Trends. Then click on Looks, and they click on Step by Step techniques. Finally click on curls and it will show you a brilliant video on how to do it. This is how I learnt to do it. :)How do you create curls with hair straighteners?
i always wondered this, but now i know.





there's two ways you can do it. you can wait until the strightener heats up, then seperate your hair into small sections. run the strighteners along the first section, then close them as they reach the end of your hair. roll them up your hair like a curling iron and hold for a few minutes. gently release then strighteners and there should be a curl.





second way. position the strightener as if you were going to strighten your hair. close them tightly and move they straightener down the hair, flipping and rolloing the starightener up as you go. this was the way i was taught.





it also holds better if you spray the hair with a curling lotion or hairspray before you curl, and they hair is not newly washed or dirty.





Hope that helps.





love Mel XxX
take the straitening Iron and straiten the hair as usual then run it through the section of hair until you reach the end apply a little more pressure and turn under or outwards....i do not think that you can do any other curling methods w/o a curling iron.
I curl my hair everyday with normal GHD flat straighteners, it is possible lol.





It is really hard to explain what to do, but here goes:





* Put your straightner at the root of the hair


* Clip about an inch of hair inside the iron


* Twist the straightner (with the hair still in it) and drag down


* Make sure that you keep the hair tight in the straigtner and drag it down quite slow and hard.


* Before you reach the bottom of the strands of hair, quickly release the hair so you don't split your ends!





This really works, i hope i explained it. I tried my best, it works for me, honestly.





Experiment, i did, and i worked it out babe.





Good Luck, it will look gorg when you've finished x x
Actually I have seen people with the ceramic straightners curl hair before the straighter are a lot more skinnier so its easier for it to make nice curls. I acutally went to the mall and this lady who was selling one of the ceramic straightner demonstrate it to me so yea its a lil expenisve but its worth it.


does flips straightens and curls so yea check it out! hope this helps
i don't know how you do that! but i have seen people do it before.
Its pretty hard to explain to be honest! Wrap a thin bit of hair round the hair straightener really loosely and let go after just a couple of seconds. Alternitavely (don't know how to spell that) you could wrap a thin bit of hair round a pencil and heat it with the straightener by pressing on the hair wrapped round ge pencil.
i know how to do it but its quite hard to explain. but i will try what you do is you put you hair in the straighteners at normal but as you go down you have to twist it. So all of the piece of hair goes through the plates. DON'T LEAVE IT FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES LIKE NORMAL CURLERS. cause you will get a funny curl. you need to just twist and go down the hair straight away! hope that helped! x
hiya


you CAN do it! even with normal staightners ... and my results end up great!





Get the staightners at the ed of a piece of hair and then wrap the hair around them until it reaches the top - then siply let go !





Do it in only small chunks and if you have thick hair then do it even smaller ones!





Sorry i cant really explain it in words, but ive done my best!


Just experiment!


:)
grab a strand of hair straighten it and when u get to the tip twist it but dont tighten it too much leave it twisted a couple of seconds then release and thats it, good luck
I run the straighteners through my hair and twist in a spiral motion. You have to keep the straighteners tight though and go quite slowly and you need some product too.
It works best if u use a curved straightener instead of a normal one.
How to Curl Your Hair With a Hair Straightener

I'm pretty sure you can't.. To curl it has to be round and straighteners aren't, ever I don't think.





Curling irons are just as expensive as straighteners. And the good thing is, sometimes you can straighten AND curl with a curling iron.





But you can't curl with a straightener.. Unfortunatley.
