How to Style Curling Iron Hairstyles

Mist hair with heat protectant to guard against damage, and use an alligator clip or hair tie to section off the upper portion of your locks.

This wand features a tapered barrel, making it the ideal tool for creating the classic old-school Hollywood curl often worn by modern glam girls. Furthermore, its low-temperature setting helps protect delicate hair from heat damage.

Long Blonde Curled Ends

This breathtaking style showcases long blonde curls tied into a half-up style. To achieve it, all it takes is some tie and bobby pins – an effortless look perfect for days that may be windy.

Give your long bob a fantastic textured look with these loose curls in light blonde. Their soft texture accentuates your natural face-framing locks while helping your face glow and flattering any skin tone. Pair it with bangs to complete this stunning face-framing look!

Big Bouncy Curls

LA-based hairstylist Cynthia Dyhimdis recommends Color Wow’s Cult-Favorite hairspray as the solution, as its firm yet flexible formulation adds long-term style memory with an exceptionally soft finish that remains touchable over time.

Prep your locks by using volumizing shampoo and conditioner, which will add lift. Next, spray some heat protectant on them to avoid damage during styling.

Divide your hair into manageable sections and start by wrapping one-inch sections around the barrel of a curling iron or wand, alternating your direction for more natural-looking and fuller coils.

Side-Placed Curls

An elegant side-swept style gets an updated modern twist with this simple technique. Apply thermal heat protector spray before tonging small (1″) sections clockwise and counter-clockwise for natural-looking waves.

After each curl, twirl the end of each section in a spiral shape to achieve soft yet natural-looking waves that last for days. Finish by spraying hairspray and pins.

Dark Red Curled Bob

Red curls look gorgeously stylish when styled curly. This chin-length bob features tight coils for an eye-catching shape. And the dark red hue adds drama that draws attention.

Apply a setting spray after styling for optimal curl definition; it will last the whole day! This CHI iron has a 24-karat gold plate, which helps retain heat, making your curls last even longer; plus, its slim, non-slip handle offers easy gripping.

Creamy Blonde Curls

Soft, organic curls look magical when colored a light blonde shade. Foil highlights enhance the color while adding some frosty shimmer; schedule regular touch-up sessions every 6-8 weeks to maintain more golden locks.

Long, voluminous curls look fantastic when worn in an irresistibly romantic half updo. Complete the look by adding a decorative hair clip that keeps the locks out of your eyes and face.

Brunette roots complement pale skin tones by highlighting their vibrant, rosy hue. When styling blonde highlights, use a toner as needed to reduce their brightness.

Long Brunette Curled Ends

Create an elegant, long, curly hairstyle when using a deep side part to add volume. This look looks even more chic when styled on dark brown-hued locks.

Long wavy curls create an edgy and sophisticated aesthetic when created with a medium-sized iron, mainly when worn with dark blonde ombre hair color to give off an inviting yet soft vibe.

If you want to add something different and exciting to your curly long hairstyle, why not try a waterfall braid? It is the perfect look if you already have curtain bangs but are still deciding whether to commit to full blunt fringes.

Short Layered Curls

Short, curly layers can give your hair an adorable and whimsical style while making it easier to manage.

Non-layered curly hair may appear unruly. Layers provide the necessary structure and give each curl more bounce.

No matter how you wear them, bangs in a cute layered cut can frame your face beautifully and flatter all face shapes – for example, a shaggy curly pixie can elongate an oval face shape, while curtain bangs add balance for square facial structures.

Fine Hair Curls

Fine curly hair may struggle to hold onto its curls. To help combat this, spray some curl-boosting spray or mousse before styling with a small barrel iron, creating tight, tightly defined coils.

Once the curling iron has been put away, roll each coil back into a ring and pin it with a metal hairpin until your locks have thoroughly cooled – this step helps ensure that your curls stay put for hours! Consider short, messy brown curls for an undone and casual aesthetic.
