So far as that “no-kink” clamp, I spotted it was as a result of How I used to be holding my hair. Thanks to a different TikTok tutorial, I discovered that it’s a must to fasten it across the curve of the hair in the identical route that you just're curling your hair. At any time when I'm aware of how I'm fastening it, I by no means expertise any wrinkles.

Like all hair instrument, it's vital to speak about my particular hair sort. I’ve a mix of wavy, naturally curly hair, which feels frizzy. This usually requires quite a lot of warmth, not solely to cut back frizz and irritation but in addition to carry the curl. In case your hair texture is like mine, I like to recommend flat ironing it earlier than curling it. This helps create easy curls and retains quantity to a minimal (I'm not attempting to attain an 80s big-haired look).
I’ve solely used the B1 on the very best warmth setting (410 levels) up to now. It holds the curl very effectively, nevertheless it does loosen up as time goes on – which I like. If you wish to maintain tight curls all day for a extra dramatic look, I recommend utilizing hairspray after curling every strand and likewise after you're finished. Though 410 levels is definitely sizzling, it might not be sizzling sufficient relying on how thick or thick your hair is. I might love the power to make it slightly hotter for extra outlined curls.
I might additionally advocate making use of a warmth protectant to your hair earlier than getting in with the curling iron. Since I've been utilizing the Dyson Airstraight for a couple of 12 months now (which doesn't have warmth plates), my hair isn't used to such direct warmth. Typically, the odor of burnt hair jogs my memory that I would like a barrier to guard it from warmth injury. The extra I take advantage of the B1 it turns into much less robust (it's been eight months, and now it's barely noticeable), nonetheless, it’s nonetheless Little There. I’ve but to discover a warmth protectant that doesn't make my hair greasy and sticky, however this has sparked my search.
After I first began utilizing the B1 curling iron final summer season, I had simply reduce many Carry my hair up an inch, bringing it to only above my shoulders. The 1-inch barrel measurement was excellent for that size since I had brief hair that took much less time to type. However since then my hair has grown previous my breasts, and utilizing such a skinny barrel takes a very long time to take away my now longer hair. I'll often put aside half-hour to type all of it out.
You probably have lengthy hair and don't have that a lot time to twist them day by day, I might advocate selecting the bigger barrel, which is the 1.25 model. It most likely gained't provide you with these tight, corkscrew curls that you just get with the smaller barrel, however it is possible for you to to twist bigger items of hair, decreasing the time it takes to twist your complete head. I've tried doing this (a number of occasions) with a 1-inch barrel once I was in a rush, and it made my hair look messy and uneven.
