Next, turn your head upside down, shake and gently scrunch hair with fingers. Bring head back up and repeat until desired fullness is achieved. Wide Waves: Pick up a section of hair and place the curling iron under it close to the scalp, making half a turn downward. Remove the curling iron. Working with the same hair section, start where you left off and place the curling iron on top of the hair, curing it up half a turn. Proceed down the same hair section, alternating the curl upward and downward. Repeat procedure with remaining sections of hair. For best results, hair should be about 6-8 inches long.
