Curling with Flexi Rods

Hello!

I love to curl my hair and the easiest tool to use for me is the curling flexi rods.  They are easy to wrap your hair around and sleeping with them on is not painful at all.

I did smaller curls this time and used one rod at a time. Came out pretty great if I can say so myself.

For this style I used the thin long rods because I want the curls to be smaller and tighter. If you want bigger curls you can use the bigger size rods.

I would suggest you do this the night before so your curls would be tighter and last longer.

Tip: If you only have thin rods and you want bigger curls, use 3 rods per section of hair instead of one.


You will need:
1.     Hair brush
2.     Flexi Rods (I got mine at Dischem for R40 for a pack of 8)
3.     Tresemme Heat defence smooth and soft  cream serum
4.     Scalf to protect your hair over night




Step 1:
·        Brush your hair to remove all the tangling and knots


Step 2:

·        Separate your hair into 2 section and put them on both sides on your head

Step 3:
·        Pour a small amount of the Tresemme serum into your palm, rub gently and apply into one section of your hair
·        Do the same for the other section
·        Note: I used the heat defence serum even though I won’t be using any heat because I like on my hair, its light and gives it a bit of shine

Step 4:
·        Start with side of the hair and take small sections of the hair



Step 5:
·        Take one of our rods and start from the bottom of the hair
·        Wrap your ends to the rod, not to tightly
·        Now wrap the hair on the rod, going in an upwards direction. Try not wrap over one spot more than 2times
·        So your rod should have hair from bottom to the top






Step 6:
·        Fold the rod into a ring until the whole rod is folded



Step 7:
·        Do Step5 and Step6 until you have completed all your hair.




Step 8:
·        Once all done cover your head with a scarf and you can sleep with it like that.

Step 9:
·        Morning after, remove all the rods from your hair
·        Undo the ring of the rod
·        Then unwrap the hair from the rod, try not to pull the rod down
Tip: Loosen the hair on the rod and pull the rod off without unwrapping the curl





Step 10:
·        Run your four fingers through the curls to separate them and make them look more natural




Step 11:

·        Now you can style it however you like or just let them loose like I did
