Perhaps I'm doing something wrong.  How are you supposed to curl WaWa?  It's not curling whether I am dampening it with water or not (tried both).

You need to hold the iron there for at least minute and let it cool in a curled position.  If you are using rollers, let them cool all the way down.

I can't imagine that the iron is too cool, but stranger things...

I also found that I could not get the WA WA to curl at all, no matter what I did to it.

I like the plastik haar much better, it's easier to work with.

When I put a curling iron to my WaWa it went straight.

I never had much luck curling it either, but apparently it gets more curable the longer you wear it. I believe you're supposed to curl it wet, rather than dry, at least with the iron. :)

Here's my straight WaWa curled. No problem whatsoever. I dampened the hair and used a curling iron, holding the curl gently and letting it cool off the wand. I got this kind of curl all the time. :)

I just tried curling the wawa...since I havent tried or worn it yet and Im pretty sure it will be my next install. And it curls beautifully for me. I spritzed the hair with water and curled it with my curling iron. I wrap the hair around the barrel spiral fashion and wait about 30 seconds, carefully release the curl trying not to disturb the curl. Either hold the curl in your hand to cool a little or clip it til it cools down. Beautiful ringlets. I then washed the hair and let it airdry and its still curled.....yes!!! Looks just like the photo that Amm posted above!

It actually seemed like the damper the hair the better the curl! Which may be a good thing. If I can curl the hair before its completely dry I may save on styling time!! Sounds good to me!
