Hi Ladies,

Do any of you have any tips on curling elite thermofiber properly? I did a test curl on the hair I received tonight and blaaaahhhhh. I curled about half way up and the rest was limp. I dampened it and curled it with a metal curling iron. My iron only goes up to "20" - do I need a hotter iron?
Thanks!!!

Try holding the iron in longer than you would with HH. Then also either hold the curl in place or clip it up as it cools.

I found that the thermo curls well when very damp. And the key to curling is that the hair needs to heat and cool in the same position. If using a curling iron you need to slide the curl off the iron wiothout letting it unwind and then clip it with a duckbill clip til cool.
