We recently wrote about how to create curls with your ghd styler. This video from ghd shows how to create glamour curls.

Remember your ghd styler is not just for straightening hair, there are loads of different looks you can create. All it takes is a little knowledge and some imagination!

1) It is important to begin by washing and conditioning your hair, using a shampoo and conditioner made for your hair type.  Using a ghd styler on washed hair will produce better curls, that are booth shinier and smoother.

2) After washing, dry your hair by running your fingers through them like a comb and blow drying them at the same time. Drying your hair is important to minimise heat damage from your ghd Styler. Brush thoroughly and apply a heat-protection spray to the hair, which again will help to prevent damage from the ghd Styler.

3) Before beginning to curl, you should separate your hair into five equal parts, which will make it easier to curl your hair using your ghds. Each section of your hair should be tied. Two sections should be taken from the back of your head, two more should be taken from the top of the head, and one separate section should be taken from the crown.

4) Next, the styling. Hold your ghd Styler vertically and take hair from the back of your head, close to the nape of your neck that is 1 inch in width. Clamp your ghd shut on the hair, holding the ends of the section with your other hand. Rotate the Styler by 180 degrees, and move it slowly down the length of hair. Upon reaching the end, unclamp the ghds and release the newly formed curl. Continue this process with all five portions of your hair, saving the portion of hair at the crown for the last.

5) After curling, a small amount of shining serum should be applied gently to your curls. This loosens the curls and gives them a slightly disheveled look, making them look more natural and realistic. To make your curls last longer, spray your hair with hairspray, which will also protect your hair from moisture and humidity.

Notes:

After curling your hair, you are free to play about with your curls, loosening and separating them as you see fit. This can result in a more contemporary look.

The more time you take to perform the steps above, the tighter your curls will be, and the bigger the section of hair you take to be placed inside the ghd, the larger and looser the curl will be. Experiment with different amounts of time and hair taken, to find the perfect look for you.

If you are unhappy with how a certain curl turned out, do not try to redo it immediately. Instead wait for it to cool and repeat step 4.
