How to Curl Hair With a Dual Tong Iron
- 1). Preheat the iron by plugging it in at least one minute before your are ready to start curling.
- 2). Spray hair evenly and lightly with heat protectant spray holding bottle approximatley 6" from head.
- 3). Set the desired heat depending on your hair texture. Harder to curl hair, such as naturally straight hair, may require higher heat.
- 4). Hold the iron up to the top left side of your head with one hand.
- 5). Grab a thin piece of hair, no larger than 1/2 inch in width from the top left side of your head.
- 6). Slide the piece of hair through the middle of the barrels, wind it around one barrel, bringing it through the middle again and around the other barrel. The motion is comparable to making a figure "8" with your hand.
- 7). Repeat the motion until the length of the hair strand is completely wound around the tool and you are holding on to just the tips of your hair.
- 8). Hold the iron in place for about 8 to 10 seconds, then slide the tool out of the wound hair. Repeat all the way through hair.
