We have 3 main crimping tips for you:

Tip one

Firstly we want to really emphasize how much volume crimping your hair can do, even the thinnest hair is boosted to the max – it is often used on runways to volumize models locks! This effortless volume is ideal for your Halloween look, if you’re going as a black cat, witch or a zombie, crazy hair is key to creating the perfect Halloween look. You can also add colour to your crimped locks with temporary colour spray which is available from most shops to help you really get into character.

Tip two

For a more subtle look, try part crimping your hair, a look often used by celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Arianna Grande and Anna Kendrick. This effect can be turned into a low or high pony tail, a top knot or just left down, making it a more versatile crimping style.  This style is ideal for everyday crimping and people with thicker hair that don’t need as much volume.

Tip three

This season’s crimped braids are a must. This is a really popular crimping technique currently being used by loads of hair stylist. As you all know any type of braid is a must have hair do from French to fish tail, everyone has got them especially the Kardashians. The crimped braids are a new trend creating hair envy all over the internet. With volume and style you’re onto a winner!
