Hi, my name is Lauren and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm here to discuss short curly locks with you.. Now many people today do not know the proper use of a curling iron.. They know it's meant to curl hair, but they don't necessarily know the benefits of the curling iron.. The curling iron can also create smoothness.. When you use the curling iron, your little duckbill wants to go with the curl.. I start at the base drag it down which the heat will also work as a flat iron and create that smoothness, and then you want to roll with the duckbill in order to create that perfect curl.. If you roll against that duckbill, what you're going to create is a very weird kink going in the hair, because you're going to be going against where the curling iron should. Many women end up with a kink on the end of their curls such as this one. Because they do not use the duckbill properly., If you want your curl to go back you're going to put the duckbill in front of your hair and then roll back with it, allowing the hair to wrap around evenly that duckbill.. If you're going to roll your hair forward, you want to put the duckbill behind where you're going to roll and then you're going to go up towards the hair towards the scalp and then that way, you're going to form a nice tight curl without any kinks or Any mess-ups. You can see it's very hard to get that kink out once the kink is put in.. If you do get that kink in, I suggest allowing your curling iron to almost sit on that kink spot for just a few seconds and then reroll that curling iron. So that way, you can kind of break that kink out and it will wind up forming a nicer softer, curl

auraauris: This helped so much!!
plly876: this is amazing thank you. amazing tips.
CHELSEA: Try using the Conair Infiniti Pro - You can get it at Target for like $21. When you curl your hair do not start from the roots, start a little bit away from it. There are many different ways to curl your hair, both of the ways you mentioned are an example. HOPE I HELPED !!
lolopoop4: ahhhh!!!! thanks so much!! i was wondering why i kept getting those "fish hooks" at the bottom of my hair! thanks a lot! :]
funkyfresh: OMG, you guys crack me up so much. I was ROFL reading about the enthusiastic model. Looks like a friend of hers who didn't want to be there. LOL
Imren: my hair is also short,but my curling iron is larger than that one, can this be a reasing why it won't work? i tried it a couple times as well... thanks anyway (:
Jean Ong: @IM000S : yes if you have big barrels it won't be able to give you these curls it's just give you waves and volume. you should use a smaller barrel like a 3/4" barrel to get tight curls like these.
