Cute Ways to Style Crimped Hair 

How to Crimp Your Hair

Crimped hair, that can be also sometimes called zig-zag or crinkled hair, is one of the newest trends in the world of beauty industry. Hair bloggers and celebrity stylists eagerly share images with inspiring wavy hairstyles. And these waves don’t remind us of traditional curls we are all bored by. Cute crimped ponytails, braids and feminine buns are possible to DIY, you just need to learn the basic technique of crimping. As always, we have interesting ideas, super-easy instructions and helpful tips for you!

To crimp your hair with a crimping iron, do the following steps:

1. Wash, condition and dry your hair.
2. If your hair is naturally curly, flat iron it. For girls with wavy hair – blow-dry your locks with a round brush.
3. Spray your locks with a heat-protectant.
4. Separate your hair into 2-3 inch sections.
5. Take your flat iron (1- or 2-inch width), decide what strands to crimp.
6. Crimp the chosen strands from the roots to the ends (close the iron for 3-5 seconds each time).
7. Leave your hair loose or pull it back into an updo style.

   Tips for Crimping Hair

   Crimping hair will become easier with the following tips and tricks:
• If you have a lot of hair, start crimping from bottom layers, clipping the rest of the strands at the top of your head.
• For the maximum volume crimp all hair, then brush your locks gently with a wide tooth comb.
• For more natural wavy look crimp just the upper layer of your hair.
• For fine hair try root crimping. Crimp the under layers only near the roots to give the locks more volume.
• To get a popular airy line-free texture backcomb the strand, then crimp it in chaotic directions and brush.
• You may curl locks after crimping. To get a crimped ringlet just wrap the strand loosely around the large clipless curling iron.
• To give your locks more shine either use a steam crimper, or define some locks with hair wax.
• Use a flat iron for crimping, bending your strand up and down several times, starting from the roots.
• You may try crimping with no-heat ways – overnight braids or wrapping your hair around pins. But be ready to get a slightly different, more beachy texture.
• If you are working with hair extensions, mind the crimper temperature.

1. Lavender Goddess Hair

If you’re looking to get big hair (AKA notice-me hair) but are into something edgier than the classic wavy bombshell, this is for you. While a crimping iron with ridges is a nice addition to your collection of hairstyling tools, you can also achieve this with a straightener. Make ten or more tiny braids and then run your straightener over them.

2. Multi-Toned Crimped Updo

Depending on the texture of your hair, you can achieve crimped hair with braids and no heat (curly girls are more likely to have success). Try sleeping in mini braids, either in all of your hair, or just a few braids for accent. If you’re wondering how to style that pretty curls in the morning, try a cool braided updo that shows off highlights.

3. Unicorn Crown Updo

Looking through hair crimping pictures, we can also discover unusual hair color ideas. Have you seen anything this amazing? Probably not. A lot of work went into this look — from the five or so colored highlights through the mini crimping on long locks to the perfect fishtail crown. Dream hair, for sure.

4. Textured Dutch Braid

What’s really popular right now is pulling out your crimping iron before starting an updo. Not only does the texture achieved look cool and unexpected, but you also get the texture that makes your hair appear thicker, so that any braid or bun has a lot more volume that it would otherwise.

5. Cool-Toned Textured Updo

To discover how to crimp hair (but not spend all day on it), a hair crimper used on accent pieces will be the fastest way. Because the ridges are designed for crimping, the tool will work way faster than any other method. You can choose to do only certain layers or streaks that will show in your updo.

6. Berry Bliss Textured Crowns

Textured updos are stunning with just about any hair color, but if you happen to be experimenting with unusual hues at the moment, you should definitely try a style that will make your look even more unique. Create two crown braids next to each other by sectioning off the top hair and working on the crown braid at the hairline first.

7. Crimped and Braided Layers

Long crimped locks don’t have to be hidden in updos. If you love wearing your hair down but want to try something new, go for a half-up and half-down style that incorporates random crimped strands (remember that iconic partly crimped style Britney Spears used to wear in 2000?). This style has a voluminous topsy tail and a loose center braid.

8. Mini-Crimped Fishtail Braids

These cute loose fishtail braids have so much volume. The micro crimped texture was added to the roots. Then after braiding, the hair was pulled and fanned to create the maximum thickness. The result is the soft, romantic look.

9. Textured Fishtail Crown

Crimping all of the hair will result in a thicker braid with a cool-girl, modern vibe. Work in four or five sections to make it easier to manage. Do not brush your hair when braiding and styling it into this updo.

10. Crimped Bubble Braid

If you want to know how to style crimped hair, don’t limit yourself to banal tricks and tactics. This unusual look starts off with a french braid in the front and then devolves into a loose bubble braid with each section wrapped to create poofs. Girls with long hair should definitely get creative.
