Curling your hair just got easier, faster and cheaper! Try to create soft and curvy curls with foil and a hair straightener!

Steps

1. 1 To get started, collect everything you need so that at the right time you have everything at hand. If you do not, then when this moment comes and you cannot find something, then you will get nervous and your mood will deteriorate.

Method 1 of 6: Prepare the hair straightener and foil

1. 1 Insert the rectifier plug into the socket, set the maximum power on the device. Make sure that there are no flammable objects near the rectifier.
2. 2 Take a roll of foil and tear six pieces from it, each 35 centimeters long.
   • You can buy ready-made pieces of foil from a beauty salon or cosmetic store.

   • If you have very thick and thick hair, then perhaps you need not six, but seven to eight pieces.
3. 3 When you have cut all six pieces, fold them one by one and cut into 4 equal pieces.

Method 2 of 6: Preparing your hair

1. 1 Dry and comb your hair thoroughly. Be sure to keep your hair dry.
2. 2 To keep your hair out of the way, pin it up with a hairpin or tie it up in a ponytail:
   • Gather your hair at the top of your head (up to the top of your ear).
   • Then, gather your hair in the middle (from the top to the bottom of the ear).
   • Divide the remaining (bottommost hair) into two to four sections (depending on how thick your hair is).
3. 3 After you have removed any excess hair, use a hairspray and spray liberally on the unwashed hair. Next, take one strand, twist it around your finger and wait a minute or two.
4. 4 Gently remove your finger from the strand. Do the same for each strand.

Method 3 of 6: Wrapping the strands with foil

1. 1 Take the curled strand in one hand, place the foil under the strand with the other hand.
2. 2 Roll the foil up.
3. 3 Roll the foil inwards on both sides.
4. 4 Wrap the prepared strands with foil, then repeat the same on the hair in the middle and top of the head.

Method 4 of 6: Ironing the strands

1. 1 Take one curl wrapped in foil into your hair straightener and pinch the appliance.
2. 2 Wait a few seconds and remove the iron.
   • Do not touch the scalp with a hot iron!
3. 3 Repeat this on all curls.

Method 5 of 6: Removing the foil

1. 1 Wait until the foil has cooled down - this, depending on the power of the iron, can take from five to ten seconds. To see if the foil has cooled down, lightly touch with one finger, if it is not cold, wait a little more.
2. 2 Carefully peel off the foil from the strands at the bottom of your head.
3. 3 Then remove the foil from the hair in the middle and top of the head.

Method 6 of 6: The final touch

1. 1 After removing all the foil, sprinkle the curls with varnish.
2. 2 Style your curls the way you like.

Tips

Warnings

• The foil in the iron gets very hot, so if you do not want to get burned, make sure that the foil does not come into contact with the scalp.
