Tutorial: Delicate Valentine’s Day Curls. The Ponytail Trick!

To make sure you’re not tiring your arms out with needless styling techniques or ending up with first-degree burns on your hands or forehead, we have a hack that will help you curl your hair quickly and effectively. All you have to do is put it up in a ponytail. And what’s next?

How to achieve efficient yet effective Valentine’s Day waves

1. Detangle your hair using a brush or comb. 
2. Before any kind of heat styling, it’s important to always use a heat protectant. The Syoss Keratin spray doesn’t just protect your hair up to 230°C, it also provides hold. 
3. To curl your hair extremely quickly, pull it into a high ponytail and secure it with a hair band. Keep the hair around your face loose. Then curl your ponytail using the Remington Pearl CI95 conical curling iron by separating it into smaller sections. Hold for 5 to 10 seconds with each section – depending on your hair quality. 
4. Undo your ponytail and curl the remaining strands of hair away from your face.
5. Apply some of the Schwarzkopf Taft Instant True Volume powder to your hair and massage it in. Comb through your waves with a flat brush.
6. Take two strands of hair just above your forehead and braid each of them into a thin braid, loosening each one slightly by pulling on the strands. Secure the braids at the back of your head with pins.
7. Work a small amount of the Syoss Repair Beauty Elixir hair oil into the ends of your waves using your hands. This will nourish the hair and add some definition.
8. Set your final hairstyle in place with the Schwarzkopf Taft Power hairspray.

Curling your hair when it’s up in a ponytail is a great hack. We no longer curl our hair any other way. But before you get started, check out the video tutorial!
