Hair Technique - Crimping




Crimping
In order to crimp the hair you will need a crimping iron. Make sure this is set at 150˚. Sometimes when you hold the crimping iron you accidently press the + button to turn up the heat without realising. Therefore you should always keep an eye on the temperature. 


  • As you are applying a lot of heat to the hair you need to prep this before to make sure that there is as less damage as possible. Use heat protective spray.
  • Ensure that there is a heat protective mat to avoid damage to surfaces.

  • Brush the hair thoroughly to get rid of knots. Section the hair into small, manageable sections. 
  • Place the crimper about 10cm away from the root of the hair. Hold in place for 15 seconds, and then move down.
  •  Once you have completed crimping the hair, style as desired.
