My choice is the Schmedium Flat Iron by Stylecraft as part of their travel duo. Keep in mind that for curling short hair, you’ll need a smaller flat iron. I often use a flat iron to twist my strands and achieve piecey, perfect waves (one of my fave hairstyles, btw). For example, if your hair is 1-inch long, a wand that’s 1 inch or larger won’t be of use to you.Ī post shared by Stylist/Madi’s Retreat Curl Short Hair with a Flat Iron The size of the iron will determine curl size and the tool size you will need for your hair length. Size matters, so you must find the right-diameter tool for the length of your hair. If your hair is none of these extremes, pre-heating your iron to a medium heat setting (360 F) should suffice. Hard-to-manage, or thick hair, will need a higher temperature compared to hair that’s fine and fragile. When choosing the proper heat setting, think about the quality of your hair and what heat setting you will need to style it. Most hot tools come with a temperature gauge. This last step is important: do not forget to use a product to protect your hair from the heat. Once my hair is completely dry, I apply a leave-in serum as a heat protectant. Then, blow dry, smoothing with a round brush a bit. After shampooing, I use a leave-in conditioner and a styling mousse. Whenever I need to prep my clean hair, this is what I do. Whatever technique you choose to curl your short hair, you will need to start with dry hair.
