Tip: Want to make your hair look longer? Instead of curling the longest layer underneath from to root to end, only curl the last four inches. Continue this process until you've curled the top half of your head. Then, return the straightener at the end of where you just released and repeat the process until you've reached the end of the strand.

Once you've turned your hand as far as possible, release. Do this by clasping the straightener to your hair and curl your hand outwards as if you're turning a door knob. For the top sections of your head you'll want to begin curling at the root. You'll want each piece to be thin and wide to create more volume. Begin curling your hair, one thin section at a time. In true mermaid fashion, these waves do tend to look best on medium to long hair you want to have enough space to show off the consistency of that curl pattern, which is what makes the. The uncurled section of the strand will be hidden by the top curls and with less curl it will make those long strands peek out the bottom and won't take away your length! It also prevents it from having too much volume in the middle section of your hair which can make the top look flat. 'The curl pattern usually starts around the level of the eyebrow and carries through the length of the hair, with just the very ends left straight,' she adds.
