Often, women go straight into grabbing fistfuls of hair when they’re looking to use an iron, but that’s not a wise idea if you want to retain luscious locks. Instead, invest in a set of hair clips that will help you keep track of which sections have already been styled, so you don’t overheat the hair follicles excessively. Start by sectioning out your mane into a systematic arrangement that allows you to work on it relatively quickly, and finish off with a light hair spray.
