How to Make Straight Hair Curly ~ Hair Styling Tips

Most curly-haired girls have longed for pin-straight hair at some point, but the coin flips both ways. Transforming your straight locks into voluminous curls is time-consuming, so it's a task best reserved for special occasions. Furthermore, as you surely know, not all strands hold curls well. Preparing your hair for curls starts in the shower and will probably require products you don't normally use, and having an extra set of helping hands doesn't hurt. When you get your first compliment or admiring stare, all the effort will seem worthwhile.

Instructions

Wash your hair with moisturizing shampoo and use a moisturizing deep conditioner to help the hair hold its style. Skip the shampoo if your hair tends to be dry; simply rinse and condition the hair.

Rub curl-enhancing mousse through damp hair. Spritz the hair with heat-protecting spray. Pin the top half of the hair up while you dry the bottom half. Dry 2-inch sections of hair at a time, winding it around a round brush and pointing the blow dryer at the roots for a few extra seconds to create volume.

Take the clip out of the top half of your hair. Finish blow-drying the hair in 2-inch sections. Flip your head upside down while you dry the hair if you wish, to create extra volume.

Heat a curling iron to a high heat. Clip the top half of your hair up again while you work with the lower layers. Working in small sections, wrap the hair around the curling iron. Hold each piece of hair around the hot iron for several seconds, or until the top of the hair feels warm.

Release the hair from the iron, holding the section in a pin curl against your head. Secure the curl to your head with a long clip. Let the curls cool for several minutes, then pull the pins out. Spritz the curls with hairspray.

Wash, dry and mousse hair. Spritz the hair with a volumizing spray.

Lift small sections of hair, starting at your forehead and working backward. Wrap each section around a dry roller and secure it with a clip.

Blow-dry your head for several minutes, or let the hair air-dry over the course of a few hours if you're concerned about heat damage. Take the curlers out and spritz the dry hair with hairspray.
