Amazing Curls in Just 5 Minutes

I recently discovered a new way to curl my hair super fast and it still looks like I put a lot of effort in. I have pretty long, thick hair so when I have to curl it, it usually will take no less than 25 mins but since I have been doing it this way it takes around 5 - 8 mins!

Ok so here is the trick, I start off by brushing my hair out making sure there is no tangles and everything is smooth. I then tie my hair up in a high pony tail but not to tight. Then you just proceed to curl all the strands of the pony tail with a 25 mm barrel wand. I recommend using the heat protection glove that comes with the curling wand as it makes it much easier.

After each curl you can either let it cool in your hand for a few seconds or if you have harder to curl hair,  just wrap the curl back up and pin it with a bobby pin until it cools down. At this stage your hair should look something like the picture to the right.



After all the hair is curled spray it with hair spray and wait until all the hair has cooled down and then removed the hair tie very gently. You will see amazing curls and just give them a bit of a shake to create more volume and loosen them up. Some might need a touch up most likely it will be the ones around the face. Spray them with lots of hairspray and you're done.

And it's as simple as that you have now created amazing curls super fast with little effort,  and made it look like you spent hours styling your hair.

Things to remember:

- The direction you wrap the hair matters. If you do it all in one direction the curls will link together where as if you go in alternate directions the hair will be more natural. ( I used alternate directions.
- If you wrap the hair around the wand flat you will get a smoother wave where as if you twist it as you wrap it will give a looser more messy effect.
- The longer you let the hair cool in the pony tail the better chance of the curls lasting all night. It is best not to touch the curls until they have fully set.
