How do you curl your hair with a flat iron?

I just can't seem to do it =SHow do you curl your hair with a flat iron?
Okay....start with the straightners at the root of you're head, or just a bit down,it depends how bouncy you want the curl to be :)





Twist maybe 180-270 degrees.





Pull, like if you were curling a ribbon.





The slower you go, the tighter the curl, the quicker, the looser...





If that doesn't help, youtube!





Good luck and happy curling :DHow do you curl your hair with a flat iron?

u dont...
1'; flat irons work best for this.... you just wrap it around!





I have a wider one and I can bend a curl into the ends and I just pull it down the length of my hair and then just curve in when I get to the ends
Is this meant to be a joke?? I didn't know you could curl your hair w/ a flat iron...I thought the whole point of a flat iron was to straighten your hair. Unless you mean curling it either up or under on the ends??? I have trouble w/ this too...my hair is wavy and I can straighten it but not curl it up on the end w/ a flat iron. I would recommend trying a round brush and a hair dryer first...to get it to go the way you want it too...then try using a big curling iron to get it to curl...just stay away from the small curling irons cuz you'll end up w/ little ringlets..which you don't want! LOL...good luck!
It's quite hard but here are some good tutorials-

start at the top and turn it half way down your hair.


then wrap the hair round it (turning it back up again towards the roots) and hold for a few seconds then simply twirl the strand out in circular motions. It creates gorgeous curls!


I watched the hairdresser! :D
just turn it as you pull it down your hair.





but you need to have a little flat iron- try one about an inch thick.





It takes practice, but I can do a head full of ringlets now.





If you still can't get it, then start small. try to flip it out at the ends. once you get the hang of that, move on to curling. if you can't even flip it, you may need to get a different flat iron.





good luck!
You can only curl you hair with 1'; or less flat iron. Anything wider and it won't work. Is that why? If u have 1' or less iron, then you can curl as you would with a normal barrel iron. Grab at the ends and start rolling up. Voila
It's Pretty hard with a flat one but its like you put the iron at the top of your hair like your going to go down and straighten it, but first you place the iron on the hair,close itm and twist some hair on it as you go down. then you pull harder as you go down and then there you go! It's hard to explain. =l
