The heavy metal texture aggression! Lol love it 😂

[@justinhickox]

@@lovehope423 HAHAHA! that was great right! I used to edit all my own videos but about 5 months ago I hired a friend to edit and he's great with adding the comic relief into them.

[@user-ne9jw4is8o]

This entire video was helpful, especially the product explanations and seeing the way she is holding and twisting the iron. What is the best heat level to use with the flat iron she was using?

[@Coffee-Makeup-Stationary]

@@justinhickox I think the two sides of evidence. Seeing the effect (or lack of) on the side without product at the end of day was proof pudding. And I can’t remember if you said it or not- but I had an aha moment that maybe I am closing my flat iron on my hair too tightly as I try to curl, making that more of the reason why I don’t like product in my hair. Typically, if I’m putting product in, it does not “slide“ through my hair as nicely. But I think due to this video, I had a revelation that I’m squeezing it too tightly as I’m pulling it through.

[@Leslie-vz3dr]

Thank you for the video; it is very helpful! I laughed at the music when you talked about people not liking to use product. I use several products to help my fine limp hair. Question: when I dry my hair like you showed (fluffing with the hand & not a round brush), my hair gets frizzy. Do you just not worry about it b/c you're then using a flat iron? I have a decent brand of dryer.

[@karenlevish3394]

Such a helpful video! My biggest problem is doing the back of my head. Any tips for that? I’m so uncoordinated!

[@michellep2278]

So going to try this again with my thick hair! Usually looks like a bug busy mess.😅 The volumizing product Dionna is using doesn't come up when i click the link. Hers is blue, the link pic is white. Thanks Justin 🌞

[@law8263]

Great video today! Great tips. Loved how Dionna did the step by step. I'm still practicing with my Tymo iron. It's a process 😂. Thank you!❤

[@dionnahickox]

it really is. The first time I used it, my curls were crazy. But I kept practicing with taking different sized sections, going at different speeds and changing up how I pulled the flat iron through (either straight out or straight down) until I got the kind of curl/wave pattern I wanted.

[@Andra-cr9cd]

Love this! Thanks for the details. Does this work on long hair?

[@justinhickox]

Thank you! Great seeing you, as always! Totally does. The process is the same regardless of length.

[@MaureenCairney-k3u]

I love your tips. My problem is how do you do the back when doing it yourself ?. Xx

[@dionnahickox]

For me, I part my hair in the middle and just bring it over to the side (if that makes sense). But I also say I dont see the back of my hair so I dont care how it looks. 😆

[@MaureenCairney-k3u]

@ thank you for sharing your tip for doing the back of your hair and yes I agree about not seeing the back. Made me giggle 😂

[@lori900]

I love the rocker mess that Dionna demonstrates. My hair ends up like the B-52's beehive! But I'm going to see them in December, so I WILL need that poof to last then. 🤣

[@justinhickox]

Haha! She does get after it!! I will say this though…usually I find that even if you get aggressive with breaking up the curl, it can be smoothed out and tamed much easier than trying to achieve more volume with being less aggressive! Have a great time at the concert!!

[@dionnahickox]

Oh my gosh, you are going to have so much fun!!!!

[@Journeyofthewildflower555]

This video was excellent!! I have a couple of questions, though... I always section my hair when using a hairdryer, flat iron, etc...does Dionna not section her hair when she is making waves? Also, I just got my hair cut to about her length (hers is much cuter! Mine isn't even and needs to be fixed, but I digress... 😬), and when I straighten it, the back flips out shortly after. I don't know if it's the humidity, the cut, or just my hair...but tips on how to prevent the flipping would be fantastic! Thank you both!

Hi from Puyallup Washington. I've been practicing for a weeding in December. I don't have anyone to do my hair because is in the island of PR. Yesterday I was using my curling iron and I end up with a big mess on my hair. 😢My flat iron is titanium I haven't practice yet with it. I'm a little bit afraid. Also I don't know how to do my bangs the length is up to my eyebrows 😢. I guess I will practice with your video. Thanks

[@acameves]

I have a layered clavicut and a lot of straight hair. I would like to know, please, how I can create waves without making my hair look too voluminous. I’m thinking of doing them with braids or just using the flat iron on the top layers of my hair. What would you recommend?

[@dionnahickox]

Thats what I do a lot of the time. I will flat iron my hair straight and just put wave in the hair from my recession line, up.

I have fine frizzy hair, This is what I use- Can someone help me adjust product if needed? Briogeo Farewell Frizz and round brush it straight with volume, then I spray it all with Beechwaver Great Barrier heat protectant/hairspray, then I got in with the flat iron, then finish up with DryBar Triple Sec. It's such a puzzle to me but this has been the best combo so far. I'm open to any and all suggestions, Thanks so much!

If I have shorter hair should I use a smaller flat iron like 3/4" - 5/8"?

@@justinhickox Believe me when I say the idea of using a curling iron is one of the most intimidating thoughts I've ever had. Props to anyone with that coordination.

[@tupelohoney1803]

Do you need a special kind or shape of flat iron? I’m tried the one I have and it only smoothes it doesn’t curl.

[@tomie_8]

Can you please suggest a short hairstyles for oblong face shape? I really can't find hairstyle that suits my face shape😢

[@Coffee-Makeup-Stationary]

Question! Are we curling EVERY hair? EVERY section? My back pieces at the nape are still too short for me to grab properly. 😅

[@dionnahickox]

I actually flat iron the bottom section straight...typically the area below my ears. Some days I just curl the area at my recession line and above and leave the rest straight.

[@Coffee-Makeup-Stationary]

@ Thank you, Dionna! I’m going to try that.

[@shirlynb148]

Curious on how one handles a HORRIBLE haircut. I’m 65 so have had my share of haircuts. Recently I used a gift card at a very high end salon. I showed the stylist a pic of what I wanted having grown out my hair to accomplish. I walked out with the worse haircut I have ever had. I woke up the next day, contacted a family member in a different city than I and she fixed it. Long story short should I have contacted the owner, basically squealing on the young stylist. My niece took a lot of photos as she was really surprised thinking the stylist just kept cutting trying to cover mistake after mistake.

[@ivanthompson7790]

Is there a way to stop the product discolouring grey hair? Mine always goes yellow when I use product :-(

[@JackOllie4]

Same. I just keep trying to keep it at bay with purple shampoo. My hairstylist says that my discoloration is "not bad" and "not as bad as you think it is." Well, I've been going to her for over a decade. I even moved 3 hours away and wound up going back to her because I couldn't find a good stylist in my new place. Point is, I trust her, and just stopped worrying about it.

[@lesaferguson6868]

How hot should the iron be?

[@justinhickox]

Great question! Never over 400. Aside from that, of your hair texture is thin AND fine, or damage is a HUGE concern, go closer to 300. Aside from that, the temp should be the last amount you can use to achieve the curl. That's going slightly vary iron to iron and person to person.

[@dionnahickox]

I think the flat iron has 5 heat settings and I use it on 3 for my type and texture of hair.

[@jamievaduva1708]

I wish I knew this. I have curly/wavy hair with flat roots so I’ve always flat ironed my roots to get bend in lift ….but always read the hotter the better (I have thick hair) my new flat iron goes to 450 and now I have a halo of damaged hair right at my roots. Never had this issue before. I’ll try to stay around 350 from now on but I’m sad about the damage.

[@cowacook3361]

[@justinhickox]

Yes, she used the Kenra hairspray.

[@juliehillebrand3920]

My hair stick straight and born this way. No matter what I do a the curl/ wave falls out within 20 minutes. Does not matter what or how much product I use or what kind. Note. I live in the Mississippi Gulf Coast and humidity is off the wall. I can even set it wet with hot and dry it and sleep on it. Within and hour of getting up and taking out the curlers it is straight again. And I do not even have Asian hair.
