Women who desire to have the professional look of curled hair are able to achieve the style on their own using cloud nine curlers. Five simple steps will allow anyone to achieve the beautiful professional look they want.
Temperature:
The amount of heat used with cloud nine curlers directly impacts the final result. Heat temperature should be determined by the consistency and texture of the hair. Women who have thick hair should set their hair curlers to the highest setting. Thick hair requires a higher setting to achieve the maximum effect. Women who have thin or fine hair need to use a low heat setting. Fine and thin hair burns and damages easily requiring a lower heat setting.
Size of Curlers:
Small curlers will give a tighter finished look. Large curlers offer a looser wave. The best way to determine the best size of the curler to use will depend on what type of curl that is desired. Bigger hair curlers mean looser waves and smaller curlers will offer tighter curls.
Hair Product:
Women will achieve the ultimate professional curled look by using hair products prior to using curls. Wash and dry hair thoroughly. Apply styling gel or mousse to the hair before rolling hair. Styling products help curls stay intact longer when hair product is utilized.
Time Frame:
Professional hair stylists will place cloud nine curlers in the customers hair and not remove the curlers until they are completely cool. Leaving hair curlers in place until they have cooled allows the hair to achieve the maximum curled effect. Curlers removed to early may cause curl to fall midday.
Section Hair:
Achieving salon quality curls is easier when hair is properly sectioned. Comb the hair into two to four section on each side and back of the head. Use clips to keep the sections separated. Place curls in the bottom sections first and work up the head. This allows for the hair to receive evenly distributed heat from the curlers.
