Whether you have hard-to-curl hair, or hair prone to heat damage, the hottest trend in beauty salons across the world is Marcel style curling irons. The irons, made for professionals, are now available for purchase without a cosmetologist's license.

Instructions

    1

    Decide which type of Marcel curling iron to purchase. Choose the electric or non-electric type. The electric Marcel curling iron runs on voltage from an outlet, while the non-electric irons require a stove to heat them up.

    2

    Take time to learn how to operate the handle. Marcel irons do not have spring loaded handles and don't open with the press of a thumb and snap shut. The entire hand and thumb opens and closes the handle and holds the iron closed over the hair.

    3

    Separate a small section of hair, using a comb to straighten the hair and remove any tangles. Pull it through the open iron until the iron is at the end of the hair.

    4

    Close the iron around the hair and use your hand to decide how much pressure to use. Remember that the non-electric irons are much hotter and you need to use them with very light pressure and less time than the electric Marcel curling irons.

    5

    Roll the hair around the curling iron, keeping the hair flat or twisting it as you roll the hair. Twisting the hair creates a more spiraled look. Slowly pull the iron through the hair, allowing the curl to lie gently and cool.

    6

    Finger comb the hair to separate curls and finish with a light finishing spray. Marcel curling irons allow you to enjoy curls that last all day while still leaving your hair with amazing shine.
