Technical Notes: Tight Curls

·      Turn on tongs to 25.

·      Keep tongs away from model as they are very hot.

·      Section hair starting from the underneath.

·      Start with the section by ear.

·      Use small sections of hair as they are small curlers.

·      Open clamp to trap end of hair and then curl hair around tongs.

·      Hold wand upright.

·      Hold hair in place for 12 seconds.

·   On the top of the head hold the tongs sideways but remove the curl with the wand upright.

·      Don’t pull tongs out of hair, slide the hair down the tong and open and close the clamp in small motions to release tip of hair and keep the curl together.

·      To make curl go forward put barrel of tongs away from you and roll away from you.

·      To make curl go backwards put barrel away from you and roll towards you.

·    If models hair is thick, put Kirby clips in the curls to hold them together whilst they cool.
