How To: Create 3 Different Curls Using A Curling Wand | Milk + Blush Hair Extensions

( upbeat electronic music, ), Hey everyone., Welcome to the channel., I hope, you're all having a great day.. Today I have got a curling video for you and, as you guys know, I absolutely love curls., Whether they're big and bouncy, Victoria's, Secret, curls or beach waves, or something really crazy. I absolutely love them., And today I'm gon na show you how you can get three completely different, looks using just one styling wand., I'm going to be using this one, my trusty one here.. This is 32 millimetres and you'll be surprised how versatile one styling wand can be. So, let's get straight into it.. The first style I'm going to create are those classic curls.. This is my go-to curl look.. If I'm in a tutorial and I'm wearing curls, this is the technique I would've used., So I'm gon na start off by sectioning my hair.. As you can see, I've already got my Milk and Blush extensions clipped in.. This is the Quad Weft set in the length 16 to 18 in the shade Slayer.. I find it easier to work in three sections when I'm doing this style, so this is section number one.. So I like to section my hair into two and just bring it to the sides here and I'm just gon na give it a quick brush just to make sure there aren't any tangles and now we're ready to curl.. So I'm going to take a section of hair about an inch, an inch and a half thick.. Then I'm gon na grab my curling wand. Again. This is my 32 millimetre curling wand., I'm going to point the tongue down towards the floor pop it behind the hair and I'm gon na wrap the hair around making sure that it's flat around the barrel.. If any hair pops out like mine's just done, then not to worry., You can always blend it. Afterwards., I'm just gon na wrap that all the way around and I'm gon na hold that for about five seconds.. Then, once those five seconds are up, I'm just gon na drop the curl into my hand, and I'm just gon na allow that to cool for a second. By allowing the curls to cool in your hand like this, they keep their shape and they keep that bounce. As well. So once you've held that for a couple of seconds, you can just let that go, and you can see you've got this really nice bouncy curl., It's not too tight of a curl, but it's still got that lovely shape., So you're gon na carry on This process all the way throughout the hair, just remembering to always curl away from your face and take the same size section.. So I'm gon na do the same thing. Again. Take a section of hair about an inch or an inch and a half thick point. My wand, down towards the floor, wrap the hair around flat and leave it for five seconds. Then drop that into my hand.. Do that quite carefully.? If you're not used to using a curling wand, you might want to use a glove just because the hair is gon na, be quite hot, but I'm really used to using this wand. So I'm used to the hair being quite hot.. I'M just gon na hold that for a couple of seconds and then just gently, let that drop. And you can see that the curls are pretty much exactly the same shape.. So this will mean that when the hair is brushed out, you'll get that gorgeous kind of wave and that bounce and just really pretty curls.. So I'm gon na carry on this process all the way over. My head. I'm gon na speed this process up and I'll, be back with you guys in a second., ( upbeat electronic music ). So once you've curled all your hair you're, looking something like this. You're, just gon na leave these curls to cool for another kind of two to five minutes, just so they're completely cool, and then we can brush them out.. Now that my curls are completely cool, I can brush them out and the best way to do this is to brush from the bottom up just so you don't get rid of any of that. Really nice volume. And I'm using my loop brush here just so. I don't tug on any of the extensions., And with this you can basically brush them out as little or as much as you'd like.. If you want the curls to be more defined, then just brush out a little bit.. If you want more waves and movement, then you can brush out more. And you can see where I've curled all of the hair in the same direction and in the same way you get that really nice uniform wave.. So once you've brushed out the curls and you're happy with them, you can fix the style with hairspray and you're done., Like I said you can brush these curls out as much or as little as you'd like.. This is perfect for me.. I, like the kind of uniformed wave look., I think it adds volume.. I absolutely love it.. I love how you can dress this look up or dress it down.. I am just in love with it. ( upbeat, electronic music ). The second style I'm gon na show you guys are really beachy effortless waves.. I absolutely love this style.. It'S so timeless., It's great for any occasion and a lot of people think that you need a flatiron to create this style, and you need to do the whole twist and pull thing which some people can find quite tricky.. I know I did when I first started using flatirons., But you can actually do it really easily with your curling wand and it's actually a lot simpler as well., So I'm gon na get straight into it and I'm gon na section off. My hair, like I did for the last curl. ( upbeat, electronic music ) And I'm just gon na, take a section of hair about an inch thick and I'm gon na get my curling wand ready and just like the previous curl, I'm gon na curl, the hair Flat around the barrel, but I'm gon na do it on more of the diagonal., So keeping the hair flat you're just pulling the hair down towards the floor. But mostly you get that diagonal shape. And I'm also going to leave about an inch and a half of hair out at the end, and I'm just going to hold that for about five seconds.. Then I'm gon na let the curl go and instead of dropping it into my hand like I did before I'm going to let it drop and then I'm just going to pull on it very, very gently at the end, and you can see this loosens the curl Up and it gives it more of that kind of natural look., So that's the first curl done and the secret weapon to beachy curls is alternating. The way that you curl your hair., So all you've got to remember really is that the curls around your face go away because that's more flattering, but then the next curl can go towards., So you're, basically just going away and towards away and towards your face.. So I'm gon na grab the next section again about an inch thick. And instead of putting the wand behind the hair, I'm gon na pop it in front. Again curl it on that diagonal and leave some hair out at the end. Hold that for a couple of Seconds. Then let the curl go and just pull on it gently., And so you can see the first curl's going away and the second one's going towards, and this will give you that really beachy texture. It'll also give you a lot of volume as well.. So I'm gon na carry on doing that for the rest of my hair, just alternating the curls backwards and forwards and I'll speed this process up and I'll be back with you guys in a sec., ( upbeat electronic music ). So my beach waves have cooled for a little bit and I'm just going to go through with my fingers and just break them up a bit before I brush them out.. This way you keep that really nice texture. ( upbeat electronic music, ). Okay, so once I've broken those up a little bit, I'm gon na go in with my brush and just brush them out.. You don't have to be too kind of precious when you're brushing out these waves because, like I said this is a really effortless style.. It'S meant to look like you've just come out of the ocean or just a mermaid, or something like that. So just brush out as much as you like. And you can see where I've left the ends out. Here. You get that kind of more natural look which I really really like. Plus, you don't lose too much of the length of your extensions as well. And there you have it.. That'S how easy it is to get beachy waves with your curling wand.. I love this style., It's so effortless. Major Cali vibes going on., (, upbeat electronic music ). For my third and final look, I'm gon na be showing you guys how to get old Hollywood curls.. I absolutely love this style and anyone who knows me knows I'm obsessed with anything old Hollywood, anything vintage and I absolutely love this style.. It'S one of those looks where it looks way more complicated than it actually is, but it just takes a little bit of patience and it's utilising the pin-curl method, which is a really old-fashioned method of curling hair. But it means that your curls keep that volume and bounce and last all night long.. It'S super super simple to do so. I'M gon na get straight into it.. As you can see, I've already got my Milk and Blush hair extensions in and I'm wearing my part on the opposite side that I normally wear it, and this is so. I get volume and bounce here.. The thing about old Hollywood curls is that kind of volume. Here and then curls kind of tumbling in towards your face, so I've done that. But if you can see I've done it on a diagonal., So I started there and then I've just parted my hair towards the opposite side of my head, and this is so you don't lose any volume on this side., That's a good little tip for you.. So I'm going to start off by adding some volume to this section here and I've just got an ordinary comb to do this.. So I'm just going to take sections and gently backcomb underneath.. You don't need to go too nuts with this, because you're gon na build up this volume.. So just pop your comb in and just gently push it down, take your comb out and repeat. And then I'm just going to set that backcomb in place with a little bit of hairspray and then flop it to the other side.. That looks really strange, but trust me. It works. And then I'm just going to pick up another section and do exactly the same thing.. I like to do this with just two sections, because my hair on top, isn't that thick and I don't really need it. But if you've got thicker hair, you might want to do three or four sections of this. Just so the volume stays. And then I'm just gon na flip this hair back over and gently comb. It over. You want to put a bit more volume in at this stage than you want at the end, if that makes sense, because it will drop a little bit.. So just do that little bit extra and then it'll look perfect by the time your curls are done. For this style on this side of your hair, you're, basically going to curl all of the hair towards your face.. I know I said that it's most flattering to curl your hair away from your face, but to get that really old Hollywood look, you want the curls kind of tumbling in this way and it will look so so pretty.. So I'm going to take the hair at the front and I'm going to take sections about half an inch to an inch thick. If you've got fine hair like me or shorter hair and basically the top of your hair, you haven't got any wefts or extensions in Make sure that you're picking up a little bit of weft with your own hair and then you'll get a really nice curl. And to curl your hair towards your face you're going to pop the curling wand vertically in front of the hair and wrap it towards your Face keeping it as flat as you can. Hold that for a couple of seconds., Then you're going to drop it into your hand, and this is where the pin-curl technique comes into play., So once you've dropped it into your hand, you want to keep the shape of The curl like this, and then you just want to grab a clip or a bobby, pin or whatever you're, using and just pin that to your head., Just like that., And this will ensure that the heat stays in that curl and it cools in its shape and You'Ll get that really bouncy look.. So I'm going to do the same. Just underneath., I'm going to place the curling wand in front of the hair, wrap it towards my face. Hold it for a couple of seconds drop it into my hand.. Then you just want to roll the curl towards your head, keeping it in shape and pin it into place., And I'm just going to carry on this process all over the hair, remembering that I'm always curling towards my face on this side. And then, when you get to this side, you're just going to curl in the same direction., So you're basically always curling that way, if that makes sense., But just watch what I'm doing and you'll see the kind of feel of it. ( upbeat electronic music ). So once all your hair is rolled and pinned and you've got this kind of look going on, then you just want to leave these to cool for about five to 10 minutes.. You want to make sure they're completely cool before you remove the pins.. It'S been about 10 minutes, so I'm just going to start removing the clips and bobby pins., As you can see, holding that curl in that shape, while it cools makes it so much bouncier, but don't worry.. The curl isn't going to be that curly. We're gon na brush these out and you're gon na get that really glamorous old Hollywood. Look. ( upbeat electronic music ) Go quite slowly with this, because you don't want to brush it out too much and lose all that curl and volume.. So just go slowly., So you can see that brushing out those curls completely transforms the look.. This is the side brushed out, and this is the side that hasn't, and this just looks smoother and sleeker. - I'm probably gon na brush this out a little bit more.. It'S completely up to you how much you want to brush out the curls, but I think just a little bit more and this will be perfect. Once you're completely happy with how much you've brushed out the hair. You want to fix everything in place with hairspray and don't hold back with this.. You don't want to lose all that amazing volume and this really pretty look that you've created so go nuts with the hairspray. And there you have it.. That'S your old Hollywood look done.. I absolutely love this.. I think it's so different., It's great. If you're going out or you've got a special event, a wedding or something like that.. I think it's so pretty.. It takes a little bit more time than your kind of classic curls, but it's definitely worth it. ( gentle, electronic music, ) And there you have it.. That'S how easy it is to create three completely different, looks using just one styling wand.. I really hope you enjoyed this video guys..
