8 Reasons Your Curls Won't LastGot limp curls? Here's what you're doing all wrong -- plus, how to curl your hair the right way |
Your Curling Iron Is Cheaply Made Another way you might be going wrong when you curl your hair? "Not investing in the right tools," Potempa says. "If you use a cheap curling iron, then your curls will fall more quickly."
Poorly made or old, worn-out irons may radiate heat unevenly, frying some strands while others are cool AF.
Get rid of your iron if you're working with a vintage model. Or, if your iron's plates are metal, upgrade to one with even-heating ceramic or tourmaline plates.
Remember: A high-quality iron doesn't have to be expensive. Hot Tools curling irons are popular with pro hairstylists and start at about $40.
