Why won’t my hair curl with a flat iron?

Make sure to start with completely clean and dry hair. Wet hair won’t curl at all and damp hair won’t curl as well. Even if you have one of those magical wet-to-dry hair straighteners, it’s best if you have dry hair. Dirty hair also won’t hold its shape very well, so make sure you’ve washed it in the past 24 hours.

How do I get my flat hair to hold a curl?

One trick to getting your curls to last is using a product with hold before you put the iron on your hair. Whether it’s a moose, a heat protectant, a hair spray, or a dry texture spray, your hair will already be prepared to hold onto the curl.

Why do my curls never hold?

Allow enough time for your curls to cool down or they will lose their form and fall out quickly. If you run your fingers or brush through curls too soon without giving them the proper time to set, your curls won’t last.

How can I get curly hair ASAP?

If your hair doesn’t have a clip, simply use your fingers to wrap the hair around the barrel of the curling iron. Roll the hair up horizontally for traditional pin-up curls, or wrap it vertically for ringlet-style curls. Set the curling iron to a low heat setting to avoid damaging your hair if it is thin or fine.
