You decided to get yourself curls for the upcoming grand event, when suddenly - oops! You got burned with a hot iron.You need to treat the burn immediately, so it is very important to immediately turn off the iron and start treatment - your hair can wait!

Steps

  1. 1 Act quickly. Once you get burned, unplug your curling iron and dampen the burn area with cold water. First, dampen the burn with your fingers and then with a towel. Keep the towel on the burn for 1-5 minutes until the burning sensation and pain stop. This will reduce the severity of the burn.
  2. 2 Apply disinfectant. Apply disinfectant to burn. Make sure it is safe to burn. If you don't have any disinfectant, try to get a disinfectant of some kind.
  3. 3 Finish curling your hair. Finish the wrapping with the utmost care near the burn site.
  4. 4 Keep a disinfector on the burn. Apply enough before the burn turns red when you wake up sutra, if possible, whether the burn is sore or not.
  5. 5 Cover the burn area. Using concealer can be a little inappropriate as the surface of the burn is not smooth and pieces of skin will stick out. When the burned skin has come off the burn, then you can use concealer. This will smoothen the skin and facilitate the removal of scalded skin residues.
  6. 6 If there is a scar, apply Maderma. If you apply it right away, it will prevent scarring. Apply the ointment morning and evening until the scar is gone.
