Step 1: Select different sections of your hair about 2-3 inches wide. Hold these sections up with the help of clips up on your head.

Step 2: Now carefully take one section apart and spray it with a hair spray, which will help the curves to last longer and will give a softer texture to the hair. Then, place the upper section of hair between the top barrels and bottom plates. Keep the curling iron at least 1 inch away from the scalp so that the hot barrels do not damage the skin of your head.

Step 3: Compress the iron shut, and hold the section of your hair under it at least for 5 seconds.

Step 4: Now move the waver down and place the first barrel in the last wave so that the waves interlock together without forming any dents or harsh lines.

Step 5: Now move down gradually to complete the selected section of the hair. Then, insert the ends of the hair into the barrel with a tail comb for a smooth finish.

Step 6: Now repeat the above steps from 1 to 5 taking each section separately to produce the waves all through your hair. Always remember to place the plate under the hair with the barrels holding tight down it.

Step 7: When you have finished the curling of all the sections, break the waves with the help of your fingers gently to give a softer and natural look to wavy hair.

Now, you are ready to go out for the party and enjoy the gorgeous appearance. Though, the styling may appear difficult initially as it requires a good deal of maneuvering to achieve these cool waves of hair that fall on your shoulders, but with practice and practice, you can easily learn to style your hair more quickly.
