I searched and I mostly just found topics about how to deal with curly hair, so I'm pretty sure this is okay...

Well, I'm wondering if you guys have any tips for curling hair. I just got a curling iron, and I was wondering if you guys have any helpful tips. Like, clip it up before curling it, hair sprays, etc.

Thanks. =]

well, my hair is just naturally curly.. I just put gel in it.. but curling irons give you a loose wavy look.

add gel... then before it dries curl it... it's gonna make it hard and crunchy...

NEVER leave the iron in your hair for more than 10 seconds, or you risk damage. Get some spray that will help your hair easily curl. :]

but doesn't it depend on what kind of hair you have, aka, thick/thin/medium hair? like, for my straightening iron, it said to leave it for more than 10 seconds if you have thick hair and i have thick hair.
