From fine to thick hair with a flat iron

[VivienneVazquez]

I have a question about this, I have fine hair just like your friend (maybe even finer) and was wondering if the flat iron has to be of a particular size for the curls or can I even do it with a curling iron?

[TheLehAya]

@VivienneVazquez You definitely want to use a flat iron. I have fine hair it's a little frizzy but it's thick too. Curling iron sucks! I've curled my hair with a flat iron and it's 100% better than a curling iron. Hoped I helped:)

Hey Iris, I was wondering how long does the CHI Infra Treatment Thermal Protecting Treatment usually last you? Thanks for all the great videos!!

[ilovegerardo]

The big 12 oz bottle, I have had for almost 2 years! But I don't use it often. If you use it every day, I would say probably close to a year.

[amanda3jd]

Thanks for that info!

Wow you did a good job w/ her hair thx Iris!

[egyptiangel320]

she used iMovie on a mac

[ilovegerardo]

Yup

This is great and I have learned to do this pretty quickly - I have the same hair type as your friend, although I do have more of a slight natural wave. Here's the problem though. I use the heat protectant, I hairspray the curls, they start off being really wonderful and then an hour and a half later they fall almost completely flat. It's almost as though I never curled my hair at all! Can you advise me on how to get them to stay longer??

[ilovegerardo]

I already have a video on that. Please look for it. It's called The secret to lasting curls

I love this idea thanks for sharing

:):):):) I was wondering if when you hold the iron from the tip is it to hot?Cause i can do this style on other people but on me i have a hard time. But what is funny is that when i do it on me i tend to hold the iron and i always burn my self but my hair ends up beautiful so its worth the mild burn Todo Por La Belleza:):):):)

[ilovegerardo]

@txartzy-It is not hot. :)

[mumudolce]

Girl, you ae too cool!

loved it!

xD!!!!

[kimberlynovember]

Is it better to use a flat iron on a higher heat setting, or lower, then curling hair?

[ilovegerardo]

It's going to depend on your hair texture. You will have to play with the combinations. For her hair, I used a medium setting and it worked well.

[kattay11]

I love this tutorial! And the flat iron was heeeaps cute

you're awesome Iris!! xo

[misssandycandy]

That works well! Thanks

[BeeBeeLovesMikka]

How fun!I have thick hair like yours(mexican gens I guess)but I am gonna try this on my friend who also has naturally fine hair and always complaiins about it!Thank you so much!I hope youßre doing fine!

How do you feel about this Ed Hardy flat iron as opposed to the Babyliss Pro Nano? I've had my mind set on buying the Babyliss for a while but I really love the design on this one.

[ilovegerardo]

I have not had a chance to use the babyliss pro nano. So, I can't give you a fair comparison. But I can tell you that in the description, it says this flat iron is good to straighten, curl, flip, or wave your hair. This is a fact. I should make a video demonstrating the flip too :)
