What if I told you that the niftiest hairstyling tool was already right within your grasp?
Your flat iron- which you might have stuck to for those straight, sleek strands- has so much more potential. Blowout waves? Check. Beachy curls? Check? Glamorous Updo? Check.
If you are finding it difficult to believe me, then look at the following looks created by using nothing more than two hot plates.
Big, Bouncy Curls
Once you are well versed in the art of straightening your hair, using a flat iron is a quicker way to make perfect curls. If you want to big, bouncy curls, start with clamping your Evalectric Flat Iron at the top of about a two-inch section of hair, twist the iron 90 degrees either up or down and then glide it through your hair. The idea is similar to that of curling a ribbon with scissors when you are wrapping a gift!
Bouncy Blowout
Just as you can use your Evalectric Hair Straightener to curl your hair, you can also use it to add a tad bit of movement to the bottom of your strands. Clamp your iron on small sections of hair, around three inches from the end of your hair. Flip it either upwards or downwards- around 90 degrees and pull it gently through the hair.
Side-Swept Bangs
If you have a cowlick that’s making your bangs droop, then a flat iron is going to be your best friend! Start with blow-drying your fringe in different directions, then use a mini flat iron to reach the very start of your roots and straighten hair, sweeping the bangs to the side (whichever you prefer!)
Pony Up
Textured top and sleek pony, a hairdo to flaunt this season. After you straighten all your hair, take the hair at your crown in your hand and start backcombing that section. Take a couple of bobby pins and secure the volumized part and then tie the rest of your hair into a ponytail, dividing it into 4-5 sections. Start with straightening the hair closest to the nape of your neck, one section at a time.
Go ahead, get your hair straightener warmed up because you are going to want to replicate these looks ASAP.
