Short hair can be styled in many different ways. With these tips, you can achieve ahead of curls. Now simply conjure up beautiful curls, even with short hair.

Long, flowing hair with soft curls or even playful corkscrew curls are simply a highlight on every woman’s head. But do you necessarily have to have long hair so that you can curl your hair? Certainly not, because even with a suitable short hairstyle, beautiful curls can arise, which immediately look playful, lovely, and feminine. But how do you conjure up the fine curls in your short hairstyle?

The right tool

To create curls, you need the right styling products, the right accessories, and a few tools. A curling iron or straightening iron with a round shape is classic. The reason is that you can hardly conjure up a hairstyle with curlers because they are usually too big. A curling iron is better because here you can define your hairstyle individually. It is important to know that you create small and fine curls with a curling iron. It is practical if you opt for a very thin curling iron because you can also use it to hold short hair well.

A straightening iron, on the other hand, results in slight waves and more volume. In addition, you need curling mousse from the drugstore, as well as hairspray for later fixing. Some bobby pins also turn out to be helpful, allowing you to slowly work your way over your head. When everything is ready, you can start making the curls. If you don’t have the necessary tools at home, you can conjure up a curly hairstyle yourself with straws. Simply wrap the individual, wet strands around a straw and fix them with a hair tie. To prevent the straw from falling out, you should push the two ends together. Now let the hair dry by itself and then remove the straws. This will give you a curly hairstyle with a wow-effect!

Start with the curl spell

It is important not to do your curls while wet. It is better if you let your hair dry completely. Now comb them well and use shine spray as you like so that your curls later have a healthy shine. It’s always a good idea to protect your hair from the heat of the curling iron/straightener. Otherwise split ends or other damage can easily occur. If you have very short and fine hair, you should not use silicone-based products. Now divide your hair into different sections.

Pay particular attention to the parting, because this later decides whether the hairstyle sits naturally and loosely. Always think about the volume at the back of the head, so it is best to divide the hair into three sections each on the left, right, and at the back of the head. Now start twisting individual strands from left to right or vice versa. This always depends on the vertex direction.

Tips for the straightening iron: If you have decided to use the straightening iron, it is important that the direction of the movements is always the same. This is the only way to get even curls. To create natural volume, at the beginning of each curl, you can pull the straightener up to the root and hold it there for five seconds, then continue twisting the curl. This will prevent the curl from falling flat and smooth at the roots.

Don’t forget to fix it

Once you’ve worked the entire head, you’ll need to set your new hairstyle in place with hairspray. A good tip is to give the hair a good shake upside down and scrunch it lightly with your fingers. Now style your hair nicely and bring it into the desired shape. Finally, you should go over it again with hairspray and finally fix your hairstyle.

Always keep in mind that you cannot conjure up curls like the ones you know from long hair, especially with very short hair. It’s more of a twist on trendy beach waves, but can be a wonderful alternative to straight hair. If you have fixed everything well, the hairstyle will last up to two days. You can also help afterward with some hair wax so that the curls are perfectly staged.

A water wave as an alternative

If you don’t want the classic curls, you can switch to the water wave, which was particularly popular in the 1920s. It is wonderful for short hair and within a few hours, you will look completely transformed. The water wave is perfect for an elegant and extravagant style. Unlike the curling iron, the hair is styled wet with the water wave. With a fine comb and matching hair clips, you fix your hairstyle in the right wavy position. Then blow-dry your hair or let it air dry. Just remove the brackets and you ha
