How to Curl Hair Like Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is known for her stunning and versatile hairstyles, and one of her signature looks is her perfectly curled hair. Whether you’re a fan of her iconic curly waves or her sleek, bouncy curls, here’s a step-by-step guide on how to curl your hair like Taylor Swift.
1. Gather Your Tools
Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary tools for the perfect curl. You’ll need:
– A curling iron with a barrel size of 1 to 1.5 inches for medium to long hair, or 0.5 to 1 inch for short hair.
– A heat protectant spray to shield your hair from the heat.
– A hairbrush or comb to detangle your hair.
– Hair clips or a hair tie to keep your hair out of your face.
2. Prepare Your Hair
Start with clean, dry hair. If your hair is naturally curly, you may want to straighten it first with a flat iron to achieve a sleeker look. Apply a heat protectant spray to your hair, focusing on the mid-lengths to ends, to prevent damage from the curling iron.
3. Divide Your Hair
Section your hair into manageable parts. For Taylor Swift’s look, you’ll want to start with the top section of your hair, leaving the nape and bangs out for now.
4. Begin Curling
Take a small section of hair, about 1 to 2 inches wide, and clamp it between the curling iron barrels. Wrap the hair around the barrel, holding it for about 8 to 10 seconds. For a more defined curl, hold the hair for a longer time. To achieve Taylor Swift’s signature curl, curl the hair away from your face.
5. Release and Repeat
Once you’ve held the hair for the desired amount of time, release the curling iron and gently release the hair from the barrel. Use your fingers to gently separate the curl into loose waves. Repeat this process for the rest of your hair, working in small sections.
6. Style the Bangs and Nape
Once you’ve curled the top section of your hair, take the nape and bangs out and curl them separately. For the bangs, use a smaller barrel size to create a softer curl. For the nape, you can use the same size barrel as the rest of your hair or a smaller one for a tighter curl.
7. Finish with a hairspray
To keep your curls in place, apply a light-hold hairspray to your hair. This will help your curls last all day.
8. Final Touches
For an extra touch, you can use a texturizing spray or sea salt spray to add volume and texture to your curls. Gently scrunch your hair with your fingers to break up any tight curls and create a more natural look.
Now you have the perfect Taylor Swift-inspired curls. Enjoy your stunning hairstyle and rock it with confidence!
