Hello everyone, today I wanted to show you a curling iron
I saw it a while ago in the Japanese TV
but I forgot about it,
but then it was again on TV at Kawaii Internation by NHK
and then I tought, I have to see if it is for sale in Holland
It is just a curling iron, with 3 parts, so you will get a wave
It is by Babyliss and I just bought it online at BCC
They don't have it instore, only online,
so keep this in mind if you want one
The heat is up to max. 200 deg.
So here it is
The only problem is, it is already one for a while
but the light is still blinking
the box says it should be hot within 1 minute
but I think it is already heating up for more the 5 minutes
you will also get this protection mat
that you can put down, it is not hot yet
but then the underlay won't get too hot
I will just try it out, because it already feels hot
I have it now on the lowest setting
no. 1, because I have just dyed my hair
so I will be carefull
make sure you use a heat protecting hair spray
Like this one, that I bought in Japan
I start with the top layer
I seperate my hair in a top and bottom layer
I didn't dye my hair by myself, but I went to a hair salon
One in my town, Bilthoven
Michel Arends Hairdressers
My hair stylist, Yvon knows exactly what I want
Before this I had that lighter part in my hair
And now I showed her a picture
with red/brown hair
And afther 3,5 hours
this is the result and I am very happy with it
It is still blinking
I will try it anyway
get a hair part the size of the hair iron
With the open part out
and then you close it
I now have it for 5 seconds
let's see how it looks like
well that is not very... wavy yet, iron it a bit longer
about the same spot
and then you should, to replace the iron on the last wave part
I think I will put the heating a bit higher later on
It is important to leave the ends of you hair out of the iron
I can go down a bit more
Then it looks a bit more natural
And now you have this cute wave
The bottom layer I continue on this setting
and the top a bit hotter
I have done the bottom
It goes pretty fast,
because you only need to devide the hair in 4 parts
I will put the curled part aside
And I think I will devide the hair again
The second layer is now also finished
Again I devided it in 4 parts
It is very important that your hair is smooth
Other wise it will get frizzy
This part is a bit frizzy
Brush it..
You might have noticed I don't start at the very top of my hair
But a bit lower
This also give a more natural effect
And also because the iron is too big to get closet to the scalp
So is this the best distance to start
I still have the iron at no. 2 heat
the same as before and before that it was no 1.
I had the idea it got not warm enough at no 1.
Everytime you slide down you feel it slipping over the curl
and then you know exactly where to close again
Let's take a picture for Facebook
So in the end it is very easy
To use this wave iron
And when you see this
This nice wave, you could also make a pretty retro style hair-do
Let's see how it looks when it is loose
I don't know what happend to this part
It keeps standing out like that
I think I will get my hair straightner, to make it straight again
So now everything is curled
Or... Waved
This part looks a bit better
But is always just trying out the first time
And now you can put some mouse in your hair
I bought this in Japan and it smells like apples
It is so nice, you get hungry from it
I will do my head up side down
and also spray some hairspray
I always think you will get to more hairs this way
Look, then you have instant more volume
And with your fingers you can go trough it, to make it looser
You need lots of hair spray, when you use a curling iron
Otherwise you will loose then within 15 minutes
You can see clearly my hair is in layers
It gets a bit wild
I think that with one hair lenght it will look better
O... I am stuck
How did I do this?
I am stuck with my nail on my necklace
Smart
*(%*%$(@#*
Typical something that happens to me
Weird things
And if you have dull hair, put some wax on it
I don't need it because it is already shiney
Or if you have some wild hairs
I like it, to put one hair string aside
Don't know why, but since I have this hair color, I really like that
A bit like a fairy
And then you put the pin in from top to bottom
So you don't see the total pin
Then you have this result
Well, I hope this was usefull
And maybe you now also want to buy this iron
It was 48 euro incl. shipping
So the only problem with mine is that the light keeps blinking
But, you know when it is hot and you can use it
And I don't want to send it back..
So you can get it in Holland online at BCC
Sorry for the spam
This was the cheapest place I could find it
Well, see you next time, Bye Bye!
