How do you create a curl with a roller?

Creating a curl with a roller involves wrapping the hair around the roller in a specific manner to achieve the desired curl pattern. The correct approach generally requires two and a half turns of the hair around the roller. This method allows the hair to be fully wrapped and secured against the roller's surface, promoting better heat distribution and curl formation.

With two and a half turns, the hair is adequately embedded into the roller, which helps in achieving a tighter, more defined curl. This additional half turn also helps to ensure that the ends of the hair are properly secured, which is crucial for maintaining a uniform curl from root to tip. The effectiveness of the curl can depend significantly on the tension and the number of turns applied, so this method provides a solid foundation for consistent curling results.
