Step 1: Start with dry hair. If you have very curly hair, blow dry and brush it first, without wanting to leave it perfect, and don't forget the heat protectant.
2nd step: divide your locks in half.
3rd step: choose one of the halves and start pulling it forward towards your ear to wrap it around your head.
4th step: do this with all the hair, twisting it to the same side, and keep pinning it with bobby pins so the strands don't come loose.
Friendly tip: be careful with the direction of the clamp. Don't forget to leave the crumpled part down, so the risk of scratching is lower.
5th step: put on the stocking cap and let the "magic" happen for a while, 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the shape of your strands.
6th step: Repeat the process for the other side. done!
