Flat Iron Curls (Easy Edition!)

I myself have finally mastered flat iron curls normally, but I've found an easier version for those of you who want a similar look without the hassle of trying to wrestle with your flat iron for hours.

Step 1: 
Start out with dry hair. It can be Day 2 hair (meaning you haven't washed it for a day), or it can be freshly washed. Either works.

Step 2: 
Take your index finger and middle finger and place them together, wrapping a 1-2 inch section of hair around them.

Step 3:
Gently take the wrapped hair off of your fingers. You should have a loop of hair similar to the picture.

Step 4: 
Take your flat iron and clamp it shut on the loop of hair. You can clamp it a few times or you can try leaving it clamped for a little longer amount of time. I would recommend not leaving the flat iron on your hair for too long or it will burn your hair.

Step 5: 
Repeat on the rest of your hair and voila! Gorgeous, beachy-esque waves.

NOTE: 
If you're worried about hair damage from the flat iron's heat, pick up some heat protectant from the store. If you spritz that all over your it will help to protect your hair from being damaged.

  1. That's so easy and cute! Now if only I had a flatiron... I might actually be able to pull that off... Ha.

    1. Haha, I got mine for my birthday a while ago, so there's always that! You could totally pull it off. Just don't burn your fingers. I attempted this one time and I nearly had a disaster. (:
