How-To Notes: Multiple Uses for Your Flat Iron

Below are a few of my favorite styles which are easily achieved with just one appliance.

Prep your hair with the right products so that it’s not too squeaky clean and will hold a style before sectioning your hair and running your iron through your hair in a waving motion. I do my entire head and then mess it up for some texture.

One important tip; when achieving the perfect beachy waves, do not curl the last inch 
(or up to an inch and half if you have long hair.) Too much curl looks too 
done to have been created by salt, sea and gentle breezes.

It’s most important to spray each curl with hairspray after they have had time to cool, 
then brush out with your fingers gently after you finish the last piece.

Always make sure you use a heat protectant spray on 
your hair to stop your from frying you hair, prevent breakage and battle flyaways.

Then section off your hair and straighten smaller pieces. 
Many people run the straightener over one piece multiple times, 
but there really is no need. Simply go over one piece once, very slowly.

Apply the chalk in the manner you typically would, after 
which use your flat iron to seal it in for extra staying power.
