Corrugation curling iron for basal hair volume. Rating of the best, types of hairstyles with ironing

Root volume on thin or very heavy hair is often absent. To create it, it is recommended to use a corrugation curler.

What is a corrugation curler

The corrugation curler is a device for treating hair with a ribbed or wavy surface. The first electric tool of this type was released in the 60s of the last century and soon became very popular.

The corrugation curler can be used:

1. To create a basal volume on thin or very heavy hair.
2. To create soft and ribbed waves on hair of various lengths.
3. To create lush bunches and tails.
4. To create unusual hairstyles with creases and partial corrugation of strands.

Using a corrugation curler is an excellent alternative to perming hair. The device allows you to create hairstyles at home without special skills in a fairly quick time.

Types of corrugations

Corrugation curling iron for basal volume is represented by 3 types of device:

1. Curling on small curls (small corrugation). It is used to give root hair volume, can be used to create curls on thin hair.
2. The curling iron on average ringlets (average corrugation). Universal corrugation, can be used along the entire length of the hair and to create volume on thin and heavy hair.

   

3. Curling on large curls (large corrugation). Not suitable for giving root volume. It can be used to create large “Hollywood” curls with characteristic creases.

There are stylers with several corrugation tips and a hair straightener.

Pros and cons of ploes

Pros of using a corrugation curler:

• You can create volume both for thin hair, and for thick, heavy. The effect lasts better and longer than when using a hair dryer;
• It’s easy to learn how to create your own hair style;
• allows you to create a styling in a short time;
• the corrugation is convenient to use: just put a lock of hair inside and squeeze it for a few seconds;
• most of these plates have nozzles for creating curls of various volumes and a hair straightener.

Cons corrugation curling iron:

• quickly spoils hair, especially if the working surface is made of low-quality material;
• not recommended for use on very dry, brittle and damaged hair;
• not recommended for daily use;
• It is not recommended to use without thermal protection for hair.

Criteria for choosing a curling iron

When choosing a curling iron, it is recommended to pay attention to the following parameters:

1. The presence of a thermostat button. The advantage of a corrugation curler is the ability to set the temperature. For damaged hair, it is better to choose less heat, but for heavy and thick hair 292 – 32°F. The best are curling irons with a range from 122 – 428°F.
2. The length of the device. For short hair, the small size of the curling iron is suitable, but with long hair it is better to choose the widest working surface.
3. The number of nozzles. Ideally, if there are 3, with different volume and shape of curls. If there is one nozzle, it is better to choose the average corrugation.
4. Burn protection. Most branded pads have stands made of heat-resistant material and a special glove for working with hair.
5. Hook for hanging. Such an accessory is not necessary, but very convenient for storing the curling iron.
6. The wire. The length of the wire should not be shorter than 6’6 foot and exceed 9’8 foot. In the first case, this will not be enough for manipulation, in the second – the wire will be tangled and twisted.
7. The presence of a timer. Such a device have only professional models. The timer helps to solve two problems: it does not allow strands to overheat (you can set the time for creating a curl), it reminds you of the need to turn off the curling iron with prolonged inactivity.
8. Availability of additional features. Modern models are equipped with a function of hair ionization. This protects the hair structure from moisture loss, makes it shiny and silky.
9. The quality of the coating. There are several types of working curling irons that differ in quality, durability and cost.

Types of coverage:

• tourmaline – provides maximum protection to the hair, slowly deteriorates, but a corrugation with such a coating has a rather high cost;
• ceramic – safe for hair, ceramics can “solder” even split ends of hair and give them extra shine. But such a coating can quickly deteriorate and requires careful care.
• Teflon – protects hair from overdrying, but is quickly erased. Used for budget models;
• metal – stylists do not recommend the use of metal-coated curling irons. It electrifies and burns hair. Metal is used to make cheap plows.

Rules for using a curling iron

Curling iron for hair accelerates hair styling and helps to create a beautiful hairstyle, create a basal volume. But, at the same time, its effect on curls cannot be called positive.

Frequent and improper use of the corrugation leads to the fact that the hair becomes dry, breaks, loses shine and begins to fall out strongly.

There are rules for using a corrugation curler that minimize the negative effect of the device on the hair:

1. Do not use corrugation every day. In addition, several times a month, the hair should “rest” from the curling iron, hair dryer and styling products.
2. Do not use the curler on wet hair. Firstly, immediately after washing, the hair is thinner and more prone to damage. Secondly, water boils quickly, steam can burn scalp or face, damage the curling iron.
3. Before using the corrugation, you need to not only dry your hair, but also comb it well. Entangled areas do not fit well, can cling to the curling iron.
4. A lock is not recommended to be kept on the surface of the corrugation for more than half a minute.
5. The less
   hair in the curl that curls the corrugation at a time, the longer it will last. Thin hair curls faster.
6. The use of thermal protection is mandatory for any coating of the curling iron. Most styling products already contain substances to protect hair from the effects of high temperature. But hairdressers advise using it additionally in its pure form.
