How to Achieve a Lush Natural Curl

{fav}
The key to a large lush curl is a small curling iron!  
Weird I know but I have had great results.  
I initially thought that if I wanted a big curl I would need a larger iron but that is not the case.  Here is my secret weapon to a natural looking wave.

Conair Instant heat 1" Curling Iron

What does the web say?
  • 1" chrome barrel
  • 25 temperature controls for all hair types
  • Instant heat 60-second heat-up
  • Dual voltage
  • Electronic touch pad control switches
  • Auto shutoff
  • Ready to use, on/off indicator light
  • Patented Euro design, nonslip grip handle
  • Tangle-free swivel cord
  • UL listed
  • Limited two-year warranty
How much is it?
$14.99 suggested retail
Where can I get it?
www.conair.com , Sally Beauty Supply but the best price I have seen is on Amazon.com {13.99}
What does B* say?
I like the instant heat element it is great and I really like the fact that I can control the temperature.  I have tried many curling irons but this has been with me the longest and the cord is not all crimped and kinked {big pet-peeve}   


    Best way to achieve these results:
    1* Dirty hair!  I like to do mine scrunchy the day before with moose and or anti-frizz gel. {Product post to come} 
    2* Curl from the top down.
    3* Grab a 1.5" x 1.5' section place curling Iron at the top of your section and wrap hair around rod still holding end of hair with hand.
    4* Hold in place for 10-20 seconds
    5* Once all your hair is curled loosen curls by brushing them out {There is something about releasing the curl that adds volume and ultimately gives you the desired "Lush" loose wave.
