Hi Ladies!

My hair is extremely hard to curl. It's thick, and whenever I do curl it, the curls are weak, and come out lopsided. I have a curling wand, but I'm 100% sure I'm doing something wrong.

Here is a pic of the wand I use.

Hey! You should try sectioning your hair into small pieces, an hold the hair on the wand for longer. The curls may come out a bit 'ringletty' but you can comb through after with your fingers and they'll go more wavy. I hope this helps, just remember practice makes perfect! x

You can also try a tiny spritz of hairspray, that's what I do. I use such a small amount so that it holds but doesn't freeze, and I'm still able to put my fingers through it to make it more of a wavy curl. Good luck!

Make sure you wash your hair really really good.

Try using a small straightener, I always use mine, and my curls stay tighter throughout the day.

I cannot curl my hair for my life but automatic curlers work amazing!
