How to flat iron curl short hair

If you ever wondered how to curl short hair then here's your tutorial, how to flat iron curl short hair.

Watch video for more details.



Started with previously blow-dried hair.


Prepared hair with Awaken Texture Spray to absorb oil and give texture.


Heated iron to 380 degrees.


Starting at the roots tap iron and bend away from the face, slowly gliding the flat iron thru the ends.


Sections no wider than the iron size.


Slow and steady with the iron wins the race.


Allow curls to cool completely before separating.


Finish with Finishing Spray of your choice for hold and humidity protection.




Check out the angle.


I do not have any hair under the parietal ridge. This is to eliminate the bulk that creates the puppy dog ears look. If you have hair under the parietal ridge then hold the hair straight out horizontally and curl starting at the root. At the round of your head or above the parietal ridge be sure to hold the hair out to create the lift at the roots for volume.


Slow and steady with the iron all the way to the ends.

Start bending the iron back away from your face on the base closest to your root.

Slowly glide the iron down the shaft, keeping the angle all the way to the ends.

Allow curls to cool completely before separating with your fingers and finishing with a finishing spray for hold and protection from the humidity.
