best way to curl thermofibre?

Hi guys

I have just brought some thermofibre and was wondering the best way to curl it?

Ive tried curling tongs and it curls but drops out pretty quick - maybe the tongs arent hot enough or im not keeping them in enough?

I also tried the hot water dunk using boiled water. the first time just a few seconds the 2nd for about 10 seconds

for those of you who use this method how long do you hold the hair in the water and is it boiling hot?

any other advice ladies?

Yes, Mrs Wozzy is correct. The trick is to hold the curl until it cools, otherwise it will drop out.

Hi guys

I am leaving it to cool afterwards.....


2 minutes in the curling tongs out of the shower? and that doesnt frizz it?  human hair would just about be on fire after 2 mins!

Hi TBC

which thermo hair have you got in???

Im using evantra futura - by west bay - havent tried any thermo fibres before - the woman at Iwig said this was the one out of their brands that most ppl ordered.  Cost $13/pack.   I saw it somewhere else for $10 but they wont ship to new zealand where I am :(

Ive had it in for 2 days - its fine so far but obviously 2 days are WAY too early to say.  the curl seems to be holding up ok.

I know the synthetic (plain non heat resistant) i had last time I tried synth lasted less than a week - I found it tangled and was hard to comb, and after sleeping in it one night without plaiting, it was so matted the next morning I couldnt comb it out without stretching and snarling the fibres and ended up cutting it off short.  My concern is that the same thing will happen with this - which i hope it doesnt as I actually prefer the look of the synthetic to HH.
