Curling with a Flat Iron Tutorial

Dont underestimate the power of your flat iron. Flat irons aren't just for creating straight hair styles, they can also be used to create flips, waves and curls. in this tutorial sorella salon and Spa show you the technique for curling your hair with a flatiron.

The Spiral Curl Hair Tutorial

Steps :
Step 1 : Take your barrel, and starting from the base, wrap your hair downward and away from your face. This will create wavy curls that frame the structure of your face.
Step 2 : Do this on both sides, so that the curls are facing the same direction on each side of your head.
Step 3 : After your curls have cooled down, run your fingers through them to achieve a much fuller look.

Asymmetrical Twist Hair Tutorial

Steps :
Step 1 : Using your rat tail comb, section off a portion of hair at the crown of your head.
Step 2 : Holding your hair with one hand, take your teasing brush and gently tease the sectioned off portion of hair.
Step 3 : Release your teased hair and — with your brush — gently blend it back with the rest, making sure not to flatten the body you’ve created. Now, gather it into a low side-ponytail.
Step 4 : Start twisting your hair away from you.
Step 5 : Twist your hair into a bun, tucking the ends under when you finish.
Step 6 : Grab those bobby pins and start pinning everything in place.

Four Strand Braid With Lace Hair Tutorial

First, put your hair into a ponytail with four strands of long lace attached to the inside of the ponytail. Next, divide your hair into four sections, with a strand of lace in each section. Now it's time to braid! From left to right, we will number each strand to make it a little easier. Strand one goes over strand two and under strand three. In the next photo you'll see strand four go under strand one, then over strand three. Simply said, the outside piece will always be the strand you'll weave with, going under then over, then over then under, etc. Continue this process until you've reached the end of your hair and secure with an elastic band. Then, take the remaining strands of the lace and wrap around the end of your braid, covering the elastic band. Lastly, cut the elastic band at the top, and tuck the ends of the lace into the braid.

Double Side Braid Hair Tutorial

Steps :
Begin with your hair down.
Take a section of your hair from the thicker side of your part.
Then braid it all the way down. It will lie flat on your head best if you angle it back as you're braiding it.
Next, using a technique Elsie and Sarah taught me here, slightly tug all along the braid, making it appear thicker.
Once the braid is complete, pin it on the back/far side of your head underneath the top layer of your hair, covering the bobby pins.
Next, braid the rest of your hair into a side braid.
Continue with the same process as the first braid, slightly tugging along the whole thing.
If it's really windy that day, add a spritz of hairspray to keep it place.
