Spiral Curling Iron The Secret To Beautiful Curls
The curls you create can be loose or tight.  Whatever look you’re going for you need a spiral curling iron. These new methods aren’t rocket science. You’ve just got to get used to the idea of not holding your curlers or spiral curling iron the typical way you’ve probably been taught!

Here’s a little spiral curling iron step by step.  Before you start, you may want to straighten curly hair then get out your spiral curling iron.

Create several sections in your hair to make the curling easier.  Create your spirals by using any of the following tools: regular curling iron, a spiral curling iron, or even regular hair rollers and/or hot rollers. Just like normal curls if you want tight  curls just use a small barrel if want loose curls use a larger barrelled spiral curling iron or curler. If you want your curls to last as long as possible, apply some mousse, or gel,  to dry or slightly wet hair before you starting. Comb your hair thoroughly and then blow dry. When using a spiral curling iron you must make sure your hair is completely dry or risking it damaged by singeing. Split your hair into two main sections, side to side, by parting your hair down the middle. Then separate those two sections into two more sections, top and bottom. Clamp the top sections. No matter how thick your hair is, always start curling from the bottom to the top with your spiral curling iron, especially if you’re a beginner! Once you get a little more seasoned, you can curl the top first then clip that hair out of the way if you like to work from top to bottom instead. Grab a small section of hair and tuck the end into your spiral curling iron, or start the curl further up if you want to leave ends out. Start winding your hair vertically. Your iron or curler should be straight up and down. Roll the spiral curling iron or roller up as far as you can go. If you’re using an iron, hold it to the count of ten, depending on your heat setting.

Give all the curls a shot of styling hair spray. You can finish your curls with a firm holding spray once you’re done using the spiral curling iron. You can leave your curls looking tight, or slightly fluff them loose to separate curls.  Whichever way, you and you’re spiral curls are going to look great!
