Electric curlers: how to use, reviews. Video

Before using the electric curlers, it is advisable to wash your hair with conditioner, which will make your hair more manageable and pliable. Then you should dry your hair.

Electric curlers are used in the same way as ordinary curlers, but there is no need to sleep with them or warm them in water. Just before styling, plug the curlers into an outlet to warm them up to the desired temperature. This usually takes 10 to 15 minutes, but some models heat up faster, in just 3-5 minutes. Many manufacturers equip these products with an indicator light that allows you to determine if the curlers are ready for use.

While the curlers are heating, apply the necessary products to the strands. This can be a thermal protection, a product for the root volume of the hair, or a fixing agent (gel, foam or mousse), which contributes to a longer preservation of the curling effect.

Use a fine long handle to separate your hair into sections. Start winding the strands from the back of the head, and then along the sides. Curls and bangs that frame your face should be curled last. Separate thin strands, they will not disintegrate and will wind up more easily, and the curls themselves will turn out more beautiful.

For more convenience, you can use two mirrors. One will be needed for a general overview, and the other in order to gently wind the hair at the back of the head.

After separating the strand, comb it and wind it on the curlers from ends to roots. Pay special attention to the ends of the strand. Roll them gently, otherwise the tip of the curl will look kinked, which can ruin the hairstyle. Hold the strand until you secure the curlers to prevent it from slipping off.

You can curl your hair in a variety of ways: towards you, away from you, full length, or just curl the ends. In addition, you can use wide-diameter curlers for the upper strands, and a small one for the lower ones, etc. When curling the strands, make sure that the width of your curl does not exceed the width of the curler, otherwise you will not be able to gently curl your hair.

Fix the electric curlers using the special pins, crabs or clips that are included in the kit. This will keep your hair in shape for a long time after styling. Clips and crabs should be unclenched, and then fastened, securing the wrapped strand on the curlers. The hairpin must be carefully threaded through the lock, making an up and down movement, as when sewing. It is necessary to do this towards the roots, that is, in the same direction in which you twisted the hair, so the hairpin will not fall out and will hold on more firmly.

Wait a while, 10, 15 or 20 minutes, depending on how much free time you have. Then gently remove the curlers and gently beat the curls with your fingertips. Now you can enjoy luxurious styling.

The model can include electric curlers of various diameters and sizes, which makes it possible to experiment with the width of the curls and the intensity of their curling.

When choosing electric curlers, pay special attention to the materials from which they are made. Aluminum curlers are somewhat cheaper, but they are more aggressive on the hair. Therefore, it is better to give preference to Teflon or ceramic products.

It is desirable that the curlers be covered with a layer of velor on top. It protects hair from heat exposure and allows it to be evenly distributed through the curlers, forming the same natural curls.

Electric curlers with insulated edges are considered more convenient. Equally important in devices for curling hair is the presence of a temperature indicator that allows you to control the degree of heating. The best protection for your hair is provided by electric curlers with ionization function, which allows you to achieve beautiful curls without harm to your hair, while maintaining their health, shine and elasticity.
