How would you curl your hair with a curling iron? [Help]?

So I try to curl my hair with all the same techniques that normally is needed, but when i let the clamp go it seems that there isn't a curl at all, it ends up like a wave but not a distinct, cute curl. Please help me with good detailing. thanks! :)How would you curl your hair with a curling iron? [Help]?
sounds like you're putting too much hair in the curling iron. use small sections of hair, spray them with hairspray and then curl. section your hair and work from the bottom of your head upwards. depending on how thick/heavy and how much hair there is this can take some time to do! good luck :)How would you curl your hair with a curling iron?

Certain types of hair dont curl as easily as others. Sometimes if you hair has just been freshly washed, the hair is to soft to hold onto the curl. My suggestion would be to either wait a day after washing your hair, or tryin a prep cream or spray. Tresemme is a good brand, and isn't to expensive. Other than that, before letting the clamp out, slide the hair off of the curling iron, still rolled up, and hold it for a second before letting it go. When you curl your hair, you're breaking the bond it usually has, so letting the hair cool down before letting it go sets the bond in the curl. I hope this helps, good luck!
I don't use the ';clamp'; it ruins the curl. Heres how I would do it hope it helps!



Insted of using the clamp warp the hair around the barrel without clamping the hair hold spray and then release it should give a ';spiral effect'; This also helps your hair by not burning it as bad
after u take a shower (dont dry hair) put into braids sleep with the braids in and when u wake up use a lil' hairspray and its wavy. dont brush it alot in the morning or it will give it a more i-didnt-dry-my-hair-last-night look lol !
don't open the clasp, and let your hair fall out...just pull out the curling iron vertically and do not touch a hot curL! wait till its cooled down
