STOP just clamping root clips into your curly hair–do this instead. *Note that smaller root clips are preferred! (I can send you my faves if you comment ROOT CLIPS) First, open the clip slightly, but not all the way, to avoid “chomping” the curl while pinching a small section of hair with your fingers. Place the clip against your forehead and slide it upward into the hair, using the forehead as a guide and gently close (Using the forehead as a guide prevents creasing the hair at the root while still providing the volume!) Placement and Tips: • Beginners should start by practicing in the front. • For the back of the head, use larger clips. • Avoid using tiny clips in the back, as they can become buried in the hair and cause frizz when removed. • Allow the clip to slide in and grab the hair naturally. Let me know if you try this method and how it works!
