All About Using a Hair Crimper At Home
Always Begin with Clean Hair
Many people wonder whether they should wash their hair before styling it or not. This is likely to be one of the frequently asked questions by hair fanatics and the answer is yes, you should wash your hair before styling. Freshly washed hair that is squeaky clean is the easiest to work with while using a hair styling tool. Ideally, you should wash your hair 1 or 2 days before the styling session so that hair can settle down in its original shape and style. Use a mild shampoo followed by a conditioner to wash your hair and allow it to dry fully before running a hair crimping machine.
Allow the Hair to Get Dry Fully
To get through a hair crimper on your freshly washed hair, you need to allow some time for the damp hair to get rid of all the moisture and then start styling. Once you have let the hair to air dry next take the help of a hair dryer and now fully dry the hair. Exposing the hair to heat without draining the moisture can cause more heat damage because you would need to glide the hair styling tool more than needed if the strands are wet. Hence to dry hair faster, you can use the women’s hair dryer on the cool shot button to minimize the heat as it releases the cool hair and adds shine to the hair.
Section the Hair for Precise Styling
For getting the finished result with perfect crimps, you need to work in sections by attending one section at a time. Once hair is fully dry, divide your hair into several sections like four to six, and use a Vega Hair Brush to get rid of detangles and knots first. Now once the hair is free from frizz and knots, crimp the hair in small sections. Begin dividing your hair from the top of your head, working your way down so, and then segregate the section from the remaining part of the hair.
Start Crimping the Hair
Once you are done prepping and dividing your hair, it’s time to style the hair with your favorite hair crimping machine. You would need to go section by section and focus on crimping hair. Turn on the styling tool and then wait for it to get heated up. Set the tool on one heat setting and take one hair section and glide the crimper slowly, clamping each section for a few seconds with another hand. Lift the crimping plate to check if the crimps have been set properly or not. Bring the tool close to the hair without burning for smooth styling. Continue clamping other hair sections with the same process and repeat the crimping process on the hair sections that are not properly crimped.
