Curling Techniques
Curls, curls, curls! With so many different types of waves and curls, we thought we'd put together this little guide on different curling techniques. The ZALA team show you how different tools, methods and products can give a variety of curls. And, you CAN safely use these methods on your ZALA Hair for a super pretty curled look!
CURLING TECHNIQUES
At ZALA, we often get asked if we sell curly or wavy hair extensions. The answer to this question is not, but for a very good reason! All our sets are straight, for the flexibility of leaving straight, or styling exactly how you desire. Curls, tousled waves or even ringlets! You can safely style your ZALA Hair Extensions, as our sets are premium quality 100% Human Remy Hair.
HOLLYWOOD STYLE CURLS
You can't go wrong with the classic look of vintage curls for an event or special occasion. To get this old hollywood style, start by spraying your hair with heat protectant. It's imperative to protect your natural locks & your extensions. To achieve this look, you will need a curling iron with a clamp. Take medium sized sections and, starting from the bottom, curl in the same direction. The key to this style is hold, so after curling each section, clip in place so that the hair cools in this position. Once all the hair is curl, lightly brush through and spray with hairspray. This technique should create an 'S' shade in the hair.
NATURAL, BEACHY CURLS
Who doesn't love the look of effortless, beachy style curls?! To get this super natural curl, start by spraying your locks with heat protectant. As always! Using a curling wand, take small sections of your hair, twist and wrap around the barrel. Always be sure to alternative directions of the curl in between each section, for the most natural look. Next, brush through with your fingers to loosen the curl slightly. Finish with a salt-spray for added texture, scrunch through your hair and you're done!
EVERYDAY CURLS
This is a go-to style for curls, as it is the most easy of all curling techniques. We love this look combined with a 9 piece set of ZALA Hair Extensions for added length & volume! First things first, use heat protectant.Next, using either a straightener or curling wand, start your curl from the mid-section of your hair. Be sure to curl away from the way for the most flattering effect. And as mentioned, alternating direction is important too! Brush through the curls lightly and spray with hairspray to finish.
