[@rebeccagiovanini3281]

I’ve tried lots of times, but I’ve never been able to curl my hair with a straightener until watching this video. Plus the final beach wave look is super cute! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

[@thatkansasgirl134]

The tip with the front pieces is exactly what I need, I can wait to try tomorrow!

[@jessicastern3480]

Lmfao

[@annasmith2908]

I love how you show the technique with the iron off before you start curling, makes it easier to get a grip on

[@alexxcoll]

Thank you so much for the views on this! This was my first tutorial style video, I know it’s not perfect and I waffle on lol but I just wanted it to be as in depth as possible so I couldn’t possibly have any follow up questions 🤣

[@user-rl7zq2ms7i]

You were actually really helpful and informative, thank you! Waffling can be a great thing when you need to retain information lol. ( •̀ .̫ •́ )✧

[@alexxcoll]

Oh god - I didn't know I typed in Brummie haha!

[@georginaspriggs7903]

Thought this was really brilliant you explained everything so I just got it ....everything I’ve been doing wrong just clicked ..... And the Tip about the sections will really help .... thanks great Video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@esselle8360]

A tutorial i didn't get bored of and actually learned something that I never really got from other hair curling tutorials. Thank you Alexx! Hope I can master this technique 🤞

[@militaryibrahim3368]

[@janesiecampos808]

Just got a hair cut like this and I couldn’t get those lose wave curls but definitely going to try your technique loved the end result 😍😍

[@alexxcoll]

Thank you lovely! Hope the vid helps 🙊

[@caseybrown5522]

Hey

[@mengyu2212]

This is the best demonstration ever. Just got the same cut yesterday and I can’t wait to try it. Thanks!

[@2twentysix]

Thank you! Especially your front of hair technique at the end as I never know how to do the bits at the front and also for sharing product info. Great vid x

[@alfarovalfaro]

This was so helpful! Recently cut my hair and got a balayage. I was struggling so much but this technique truly is the easiest and best that I found for my hair. Thanks so much 💜

[@leeesuhx3]

Thank you SO MUCH. This is the video that finally taught me how to do my hair! I have thick hair like you do and I just got a short cut and this was beyond helpful, thank you!!!!!! also you are absolutely gorgeous 💕💕💕

[@MeredithHammett]

Just chopped 14 inches off my hair. And my favorite curling iron with a clip (clamp) my cat knocked off my bathroom counter. So im left with my clipless wand and my flat iron. I absolutely hate using my wand on my shorter hair. This was super helpful!!! 🙌 subbed!

[@emilysevereid-geiss5825]

I’ve never been able to get my hair to look like this. I followed this to a T and my hair is amazing!! Thank you!!! I feel so beautiful and on trend!!! Much appreciated!!! :)

[@emmachapman1179]

Same, finally managed to curly my hair bit it either ends up to curly or like ive just left a kink. Infuriating lol

[@michaelasanderson9754]

My son gets married at the weekend. I have no hairdresser to help me out. Think I’ve found the style that I love. Ty 😊❤

[@consciencecolmon1046]

Great tutorial. I've been watching a whole bunch of different ones both with straighteners and curling irons. The only thing different with this one that I learned from another video was to start curling back sections first that way you can move those curls to the back and see what's left in the front.

[@millanolsson8895]

Yeeees, finally! 😁🙌💕 Makeup tutorial with your favorites next please! 🙏🌸

It’s in the works 😏😏😏

[@free_spicy_tamashii1826]

How do y’all make this look so easy?!! Like it’s taking me 15 million try’s to get half of a curl with or without straightener ;-;

[@silviacarrasco9415]

Wow! I love your hair and your curls. You explain so well and your techniques to curl hair are awesome. Thank you! I will try this.

[@rakshakypaskaran4110]

Omg u helped me so much, I always used to struggle curling my hair with a straightener but now I think I have the hang of it, thank u soooo much❤️❤️

[@amy_masella]

Thank you for this!! Since I’ve had my hair cut shorter I’ve never been able to do beachy waves! I’ve followed this tutorial and my hair looks amazing!!!! ❤️

[@andikichinko407]

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve never been able to get the pieces around my face quite right and your trick for those is perfect!

[@bdixon2245]

I'm so confused because it doesn't even look like the flat iron is being twisted so how are there curls? lol

[@melaniebrown5609]

Hi Alexx, thanks for this tutorial! I found it really easy to follow and helped me a lot. I’ve been looking for a good curling video for ages so thank you!

[@darciebatty7637]

[@charlottev.warner7752]

Thank you very helpful. If possible it might help some viewers to add a time stamp of where the technique is applied and in motion. For example 6:46.

[@alexxcoll]

Thanks will take it on board for future videos x

[@ashleybirdwell5521]

[@kimcrafton6612]

Got the best curls from your video

[@alexxcoll]

So glad 🥰

[@Mary_Dean]

My curls have never looked this good. A tutorial that actually works - thank you! I will say though that if you have shorter pieces in the front, the quick bang flick could make it look frizzy. Absolutely love this look 🤍

[@amypeach6745]

Literally best video ever. Made it look so simple. Going to try this at the weekend thank you xxx

Best video

[@ruanag8184]

LOL. I was like omg your brave for showing us the way you hold it but it wasn't even on lol

[@vladatretnikova]

I guess I've been curling my hair the wrong way 😂 I made all my curls face one way, and at the end used a regular hair brush, not wide toothed. That's why my curls always came out huge and frizzy... 🤐

[@aidenmcdonnell7975]

Brilliant explanation..fantastic!!! Thanks

I will be trying this out with all my at home time that I now have. I have hair extensions but since all but essentials business are closed where I am they are all coming out. So, I have suddenly shorter hair and I was looking for a new style to try. Because even staying at home, sometimes you just still want to look cute. So, thank you for the perfect timing of this demo. xoxo

[@alexxcoll]

I feel you! I wear extensions for thickness and they will have to come out soon too. So glad you liked the video! 🖤

Would normal hairspray get the work done instead of texturising hairspray? It’s the one I’ve got right now... Great video, girl!!
