Have you just created beautiful curls, but they quickly sag? That can be frustrating, especially if you've gone to all the trouble of styling your hair. Fortunately, there are several ways to make sure your curls last longer, especially if you use the Navado Easystyler Pro, which works with less heat than traditional styling tools. In this article, I share my best tips to make sure your curls stay beautiful all day long!
1. Curl your hair while it is still damp
One of the most important tips is to curl your hair while it is still damp. The Navado Easystyler Pro uses less heat than a traditional curling iron, so it is important that your hair cuticles are still open for best results. When your hair is completely dry, the cuticles are already closed and you need more heat to secure the curl. By working with damp hair, you give your hair a chance to shape better.
2. Use a salt spray or hair mousse
An easy way to make your curls last longer is to add some extra texture to your hair before you start styling. Salt spray or hair mousse can help add some stiffness to the hair, making the curls hold better. These products give the hair more grip, making it less likely to sag. Apply this to slightly damp hair and work it through to the ends before you start curling.
3. Avoid hair oil
While hair oil can be great for nourishing your hair, it often makes your locks too smooth and heavy for curls. If your hair is too soft or slippery, it is much harder to hold volume and curls. Do you have naturally very soft hair? Then even consider not using conditioner before you curl your hair, because conditioner will also weigh your hair down and make it slippery. This can cause your curls to sag faster.
4. Use the coldshot function longer
The coldshot feature on the Navado Easystyler Pro is great for fixing your curls without heat. Cold air closes the hair cuticles and fixes the curl, but it can take a while for your hair to really cool down completely. Try using the coldshot a little longer to allow your curls to cool completely and hold their shape. This will keep them in shape longer.
5. Give the heat setting a little more time
It could also be that you are not using the heat setting long enough. Perhaps you curl your hair too quickly, not giving it enough time for the curl to take hold. One tip is to curl one strand of hair longer and see if that curl holds better. If it does, you can vary the time on the next strands to discover how long your hair needs to stay in good shape.
6. Try using curlers
Do you really want your curls to last? Then curling pins are an excellent option. After you've curled your hair with the Easystyler Pro, you can secure the curls with pins and let them cool while they stay in shape. This ensures that your hair cools completely into a curl, increasing the likelihood that your curls will stay beautiful all day.
7. Leave your curls alone after styling
One of the biggest mistakes people make after curling their hair is going right through it with their fingers. This can quickly loosen your curls and cause them to sag. Leave your curls alone for at least half an hour after you curl them. This includes combing, even with your fingers. It may seem like your curls are too tight at first, but once they have cooled and set, the results will look more natural and last longer.
Conclusion: How to Keep Your Curls Long
Curls that sag can be an annoying problem, but with these tips, you can make sure your curls last longer and look radiant. Whether you use the Navado Easystyler Pro or the Dyson Airwrap, it's essential to prepare your hair properly and style it in a way that suits your hair type. Try different techniques and find out what works best for your hair.
