Put Your Curl Down, Flip It, and Reverse It
4 min readCurls Like You’ve Nev-ah Seen
When you want seamless curls, ditch your old school curling iron and go for a wand. Curling Wands are the best heat styling tool to get creaseless curls that hold bounce and volume. But for dimension in a completely different way, there are alternative shapes of these curlers that flip the singular size curl and make it a curl style you haven’t seen before.
When it comes to your signature ‘do, size and subtle details matter. Having the right tools can totally make your hairstyle stand out without having to deal with a complicated styling routine. The usual shape of curling irons produce curls uniformly the same from base to tip but if you want something a little different that gets larger as you style then look for one that begins smaller at the base and gets wider at the tip.
Whatever the length you hair, the NuMe Classic Curling Wand Reverse can turn your curls from basic to bodacious. It’s unlike any styling tool you’ve used in the past because you’ll get a larger, more defined curl. Women with short hairstyles love this shape because it allows you to get some curl at your root before you start wrapping sections of your hair around the barrel each time. Made with a 100 percent tourmaline ceramic barrel and far infrared heat technology, this curling wand supports healthy hair even when you decide to use it every day. We’ll tell you how to use this reverse wand and give you a sneak peak of the other versatile curling wands and sets we carry.
How To Style With Your NuMe Classic Curling Wand Reverse
Before experimenting with any new heat styling tool make sure that you work with dry hair that’s been prepped with heat protectant, we recommend the NuMe Watch Me Werk Thermal Heat Protectant. That means taking your hair in sections and spraying from root to tip, everywhere you intend to style. Brushing through your hair to make sure there are no tangles is the best way to get sleek, bouncy curls. Always do this before you work with any heat styling tool. Always!
Step One
Section your hair and begin taking one inch pieces (for thicker haired ladies) or one and half inch sections (for fine hair) depending on your hair type. Put on your heat-resistant styling glove that comes with each NuMe curling wand.
Step Two
Wrap your hair around the barrel with the tip of the wand facing downward to improve the curl shape and direction it flows.
Step Three
Hold your curl for a few seconds then release it into your gloved hand and let the ringlet cool down in your palm.
Step Four
Release your curl slowly and allow it to form and fall.
Step Five
Repeat these steps for each section of your hair.
Step Six
To achieve loose or softer-looking curls, brush them out using the NuMe Paddle Brush.
Step Seven
Set your curls with NuMe Hottie Alert Shine Spray to smooth the hair and give it some shine factor. Add NuMe Hair-Fie Ready Finishing Spray to hold and seal the look.
Features of the NuMe Classic Curling Wand Reverse
This reverse curling wand is a part of our classics family and comes as a single item or as a barrel option when you purchase the NuMe Octowand which offers eight interchangeable barrels. The pure tourmaline ceramic barrel is different than other curling wands that are simply coated with ceramic because these eventually wear away from the metal material on which it’s layered. Also, the tourmaline material improves the rate of negative ions that absorb into your hair follicles to counteract positive ions that are known to cause frizz.
While many of our tools come with an on-off switch or dial temperature control, the rate at which tourmaline ceramic heats is quick and even; so the 410°F temperature is the accurate temperature but you can get your curls done fast and you won’t need to hold the curl there for so long. The design on this wand is particular and hand crafted down to a science from the inside out including advanced PTC heating allowing the reverse barrel to heat up and cool down quickly once it’s off for a stylist's lifestyle. This combination of tourmaline ceramic is the best option for all Curl Bosses out there when it comes to achieving your signature style every day. Even if you’re not naturally curly, embrace the curl and work it!
