I’m learning how to curl my wife’s hair because she’s used to a wand and not iron, so she’s getting frustrated. This video made me realize how simple and easy it is. Can’t wait to make her happy! I’ll update how it went after

[@sophie_14.]

where's the update

[@24chadtsmith]

@@sophie_14. I completely forgot about this lol my bad! But it went really well! She let me give it a try and it turned out better than we both thought it would. I tried showing her how I do it, but she insists that I be her personal hair stylist instead. Her sister is a stylist so she gave me some more pointers and I've definitely stepped up my game.

[@shamsghalib2718]

That's why you just buy a wand. The clip can be a real hassle especially on fluffy hair that does not want to neatly gather and play with the wand.

I never held curling iron to curl my hair until April this year when my sister was out of town and there was no one to curl my hair. I looked for some videos and this one was such a blessing. I learned how to curl my hair for the first time. This was such a blessing and I have been curling my hair since that time. And not just my hair but others' too. Wow. Thank you so much. You made it look easy for me to curl my hair and I tried it.. and I did not experience curling iron burns as well, haha! God bless you!!

[@rosenorris7574]

This is the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. You did a great job explaining and then repeating yourself to make sure your point was getting across. I’ve watched too many tutorials where they explain something but then don’t repeat it or show you again how to do it. This breakdown was really helpful; I’m excited to try using my clamp iron again!

I’ve curled it the traditional way (start at the bottom and curl up) and even bought an expensive Tyme iron to try to curl my hair (which worked but it was kind of tough to use and it always left my hair feeling fried). I finally broke down and decided to find a tutorial to see if there was a method I was missing. I stumbled on yours and used it yesterday. Not only was it fairly quick and easy, but for the first time ever, my curls stayed ALL DAY (without hairspray)!! Even after sleeping on it, I still have these amazing curly waves. Thank you for an easy tutorial and showing us a way to curl our hair that actually works!
