How to Wave Hair with a Flat Iron: Create Stunning Curls Effortlessly
Waving your hair with a flat iron can seem tricky, but with the right technique and tools, it's easy! The Faszin Shield F100 and ShieldPlus F300 are versatile 2-in-1 hair straighteners that not only straighten but also create beautiful curls. Here’s how to master various wave styles with these innovative tools.
1. Prep Your Hair
Begin by prepping your hair for styling. Use a lightweight styling cream or mousse to add texture and hold. This step will help your curls last longer. Once your hair is prepped, ensure it’s completely tangle-free, as this will make styling much easier.
2. Section Your Hair Strategically
Divide your hair into manageable sections, starting from the bottom and working your way up. Using clips to hold the upper sections out of the way can help you focus on one part at a time. This organization allows for more control and ensures you don’t miss any strands.
3. Choose the Right Temperature
With adjustable temperature settings from 130°C to 230°C, both the Faszin Shield F100 and ShieldPlus F300 cater to all hair types. Adjust the temperature according to your hair's thickness: lower for fine hair, higher for thick or coarse strands.
4. Create Different Types of Waves
Here are some techniques to achieve various curl styles:
-
Loose Beachy Waves: Clamp a section of hair near the roots, twist the flat iron 180 degrees away from your face, and glide it down the hair shaft. Leave the ends slightly out for a more relaxed look.
-
Defined Curls: For tighter curls, twist the hair around the flat iron straightener multiple times before sliding it down. This technique works beautifully with the Faszin's smooth titanium plates, which minimize frizz.
-
S-Shaped Waves: Alternate the direction of the flat iron as you move down the section of hair. This creates a more natural, tousled wave pattern.
5. Enjoy Negative Ion Technology
Both the Faszin Shield F100 1 inch Flat Iron and ShieldPlus F300 2-inch Flat Iron feature IonPeak technology, producing millions of negative ions to combat frizz and enhance shine. This ensures your waves look smooth and polished, without any static.
6. Set Your Style
After curling, finish with a light-hold hairspray to keep your waves intact throughout the day. The flexibility of the Faszin straighteners allows you to style with ease while maintaining hair health.
