How I Curl My Hair With The Babyliss Pro Curling Iron: Easy Hair Curling Tutorial!!

So you're trying to figure out how you can create soft and natural-looking curls, but there's so many tutorials out there and they go so fast with very little explanation. So today I am going to show you how I curl my hair with the babble escrow one and a half inch barrel. This is my favorite iron to use in the salon and it's my favorite one to use at home as well. So if you're new to my channel, my name is Lauren professional hairstylist. You may know me from my instagram Loren, Francis hair. This is Clark he didn't want enough today, so we are making the best of it, but don't worry, we will not be using a hot iron with an infant okay, so the two products that I'm going to be using are by DA Venus. This is a dry texture, spray and then also there. This is a medium hair spray, okay, so I'm starting with day two blow-dried hair. If you know me, you know, my hair is curly and frizzy, so I actually blow-dried it a few days ago, and so this is my day to hair or you don't necessarily want your hair to be extremely dirty. I always hear that in all of these tutorials you want super dirty hair when you're curling your hair, that's not true! If it's too oily, it's gon na weigh it down, and the curls are not gon na stay so day, two hair, but not extremely oily hair. If you are starting from extremely clean hair, you may want to rough it up just a little bit with product, so the product that I would use to kind of give it a little bit of grit for the curl to hang on to is the DA penis. This is a dry texture spray, so if you're using this you're, just gon na kind of pull it up at the roof and spray just a little bit, it doesn't need much and again if your hair is clean, just go ahead and do a light coat throughout Your entire hair, so there's a couple of different ways: you can go about sectioning if you're, seasoned and you're doing this every single day and you're kind of used to your own hair. By now, I would just start in the front and then work your way back and just kind of feeling which sections need to be done as you go back if that's too difficult for you go ahead and part your hair, half-up half-down start at the bottom work. Your way up and save the front for last, because if you start and get all your mistakes out on the bottom, then your front pieces are gon na. Look the best. That'S what I always tell my clients. So today, I'm gon na start from the front and just work my way back, so I'm gon na. Let you speed up this video according to your needs, I feel like there's some tutorials out there, where they are making them so quick, and you can't really see exactly what's going on so you're gon na see me make a few mistakes. You'Re gon na see me stumble a little bit and just watch me work through it, so I'm gon na do this real time and if it gets boring, you can go ahead and speed it up yourself, okay, so I'm gon na start in the front right here And I'm kind of just pulling this section that, where the hair naturally kind of starts to recede on mine - it's right about here so from the wherever your part is to where the hair naturally starts to recede. So I always kind of see with my fingers. I kind of groom the section a little bit that makes it so you don't get any kinks and tangles when you're curling and it's all very smooth. So I want to make sure to put the barrel behind the section like this, because we're curling away from the face, always by the face so behind this section, and I'm just gon na - do like a little bit of a half turn that way. This this piece right here this clamp, doesn't kind of give you a little Ridge mark in there. So I'm going to do a little half turn before I clamp down I'm gon na pull forward and continuously release. As I go down on that last section, I'm just gon na kind of tap it through okay, so I'm gon na take another piece and I'm just kind of feeling my sections as I go back the way that I pick my sections is: I'm just making sure That like, for example, this right here is such a wide section and it kind of takes from different parts of the head shape. So I'm just gon na kind of reduce that a little bit and it's there about like one-inch sections. So I'm using my thumb and my forefinger to just constantly release little tiny taps to release, and sometimes if your hair is super thin, you don't even really need to release it all. You just need to kind of loosen it a little bit, so it's still clamp down but you're just kind of loosening it. If you have really thick hair, you might need a tap tap tap if you have thinner hair, just a release, release release where you can barely hear it. Okay, so I'm making sure to put the barrel behind the piece so that I am curling away from the face and I'm continuing to twirl use my thumb and forefinger to continue to release and then on the very last section and pulling through and then every once. In a while, I like to curl a section toward the face: it's not necessary, but it kind of gives it a little bit of volume and lift. If you do that because then all the curl aren't going the same way and kind of twirling around each other. So last time we put the barrel behind the section this time we want to put the barrel in front of the section like this and I'm going to use the same principles, just kind of release, release release kind of, let it out a little bit and then At the bottom top top top and notice, I'm not holding the iron in there for any long period of time. I do have the iron set on the highest heat, but I'm not holding it there for a long period of time. So that's how I'm preventing damage! I do want the high heat, though, because that's what's gon na make it stay the longest, but I'm not holding it there. So if you're, new and you're, you know having a little bit of trouble with kind of getting used to your hands when you're curling your hair, make sure that you have it on a lower setting, because, if you're holding it there on a long time, you will Damage your hair, but see how I'm just kind of releasing releasing releasing nothing staying on there for a really long time and just for fun I'll. Take this one and go the opposite direction. So that means the barrel goes in front of the section remember and if you take a bigger section, you might want to hold it for just a few seconds. Longer smaller sections don't hold it as long, and so I'm almost done with a whole half of my head right now you don't have to take super tiny section. We just kind of want to create a really loose natural, looking wave, slash, curl. Also, it kind of helps, if I explained to you where I'm placing my hands too so my right hand is holding the curling iron and I'm using my thumb and my forefinger, as I twist so twist twist twist tap tap twist twist twist tap tap with the Thumb twist twist, twist, tuck tuck, with the forefinger twist twist twist tap tap with the thumb. Okay, so I start with the forefinger. I don't even know that I saying that right, forefinger pointer finger or whatever you know what I'm talking about. Okay, so place it behind the section. Little half turn clamp down and continue to release, and then this hand goes here to kind of control it like. If I just do it with one hand, I can do that, but it helps me kind of move the iron in between my fingers. If I use this other hand down here to help twist and I'm just gon na, do this whole chunk in one section. So because it's a little bit bigger section, it's underneath, I don't mind taking a bigger piece, but I am gon na hold it just for a little bit longer, just to make sure it stays and then also notice how I'm not immediately raking my fingers through my Curls and that's because I want to allow the curls to set before I do that, otherwise, it won't last quite as long you want to make sure they kind of set into their style, and the only way to do that is letting them cool down. First. Okay, so I just finished this entire half of my hair and now I'm going to move on to this section and I'll just spray it a little bit with this is a medium hair spray from da Venus real quick. So that's this one so that why it's setting cooing and just a literally light layer so that wow, that's studying and cooling it kind of is another protection against it falling out. Okay. So I want to keep all these curls in the front to just help me make sure I stay organized, so I'm gon na take this hair or this front piece like I did on the other side and then move the rest of this hair to the back. So I have three sections without having to clip okay and then the same principles you want to make sure the barrel is behind, even when you're on the other side. So, however, you have to hold it to do that. That'S what you want to make sure you're doing is having the barrel behind the section and tap tap depth. It is grab this big section back here, pull out another piece. Put it back behind you that way, you can stay organized without using a ton of clips. So don't be discouraged if it's not doesn't it come super easy to you the first time you try. It'S not a big deal. Okay, so remember barrel, behind this section do a little half twist, so you prevent that kink all right. Let'S do this bottom section and for this bottom section see how wide of a section that is - and it gets a little thin up here - I'm just gon na take this top part away to just kind of give it a more cohesive section right there. So for this bottom section, since it's close to my neck, I always like to see hair kind of moving toward the neck and away from the face. So sometimes I curl by the neck toward my hair or sari toward my neck. Instead of away from my face. So I'm gon na put the barrel on the front of the section this time to go toward my face and again the reason we're doing that is to create a little bit of volume and fullness down by the neck. So there's not any gaps in the curls and then we're gon na go back to our regular away from the face and again, I'm using this hand down here to kind of help twist the iron. So I'm not relying on holding and twisting. In this other hand and notice, how the way that I kind of partition and sectioned this out, it kind of makes it so that everything is. I could pull everything forward and do it where it's comfortable for my hands, and these are our last two sections right here and then, since we just did this entire side last after we did that first half, I want to let this cool for a little bit Too, so I'm going to do the same thing on this side that I did to the other and just do a light layer of hairspray to help it set while it cools. So then, I'm going to leave it for just a few minutes, so they kind of equal in the amount of time that they've been cooling for alright. So now that I've, let my hair kind of cool down and the curls set I'm going to go ahead and run my fingers through it. Remember, there's a little bit of hairspray in there, so it could be a little bit kind of sticky and tangly but running your fingers through. It is gon na help, minimize that make it more touchable and then we're gon na do a final spray at the end. So I'll just start off by kind of starting at my roots and kind of pulling out, and I kind of like to rough it up at the roots a little bit and then sometimes I like to flip. It forward shake it out and this kind of helps separate everything so that all the curls don't kind of twist together and then I'm going to go ahead and use the hairspray to finish it off. So I spray at the bottom and then I'm going to flip it, so I always have a problem with volume right up my roots. So, just a little trick that I like to do in the salon is kind of put a little bit of hairspray on my fingertips in a play it right to the root. That kind of helps just give me a little bit of volume back alright guys if you liked this tutorial. Let me know by giving me a like also if you have any questions comments, concerns make sure.
