How to make natural curls? Step by step tips

I really love curls, but so that they are not like I just left the hairdresser, where they twirled everything and poured varnish on me, and natural curls with slight negligence, such as, for example, in Vera Brezhneva, this is my ideal version of curls. And I recently quite accidentally stumbled upon Brezhneva's article in which she told how quickly and not at all difficult to make natural curls in everyday life.

If you look at the style of Vera Brezhneva, then she always has a slight carelessness in her hairstyles, very rarely she appears with smooth and perfectly styled hair. Let's try to make careless, natural curls from Vera Brezhneva.

Careless, natural curls from Vera Brezhneva

Step 1. If you have oily hair, I advise you to make a clay-based mask before washing your hair. To do this, we need: 2 tablespoons of blue (pink, white) clay, a spoonful of water or milk or a decoction of herbs and add a few drops of essential oil (mint, bay, rosemary, orange). Apply the mask to the scalp and leave for 30-40 minutes, you can warm it up. Thanks to the clay, which absorbs sebum well, the hair will stay clean longer, even after the next wash.

Step 2. After the mask time has elapsed, I wash my head as usual, and it is advisable to apply not a conditioner, but a mask, because then we will use an iron. Wrap your head with a towel and let the moisture soak in a little. Then, when the hair is slightly damp, it is advisable to apply a foam so that the styling does not lose its shape.

Step 3. On damp hair, apply a little heat protection and blow-dry the hair upside down to add volume at the roots of the hair. When the hair is completely dry, you can proceed to the next stage.

Step 4. We select a small strand of hair (five centimeters), the smaller the strand of hair is selected, the easier it is to work with it when you are already styling the curls. The rest of the hair can be removed with a clip so it doesn't get in the way.

Step 5. We pinch the hair between the flaps of the well-heated ironing tongs and begin to turn, pull the tongs down slowly and smoothly. But, there is one nuance here, the faster you iron the strand, the larger the curls turn out, so get out of whatever curls you want.

Step 6. You can twist in any direction, the main thing at this moment is not to let go of the tip of the strand, if it lies in the wrong direction, then a neat curl will not work.

Step 7. When the curls are ready, separate them with your fingers, but not with a comb, and tilt your head down to give a little of the natural casualness that is at the height of fashion today, so the hairstyle will look natural.

Step 8. In the end, when you have done all the manipulations and you like how the curls lie, you can sprinkle them with a little hairspray, medium or light fixation.

It turned out as many as eight steps, although in fact all this is done very quickly and the curls are beautiful and natural!
