Make sure you’re using the right attachment for the curl you want. For tousled curls & touch ups, use the wand. For sleek & glam styles at home, use the spring clamp and for pro level results, use the marcel clamp - or whichever setting you’re most comfortable with for best results.
Directions:
For Tousled Curls & Beach Waves: Use the Wand
Achieving this perfectly imperfect look couldn’t be easier—and using a clamp-free wand is key.
Another Harry Josh–approved trick? As you release each section, pull slightly at the ends to loosen up the curl.
For Sleek, Glam Styles: Use the Spring Clamp
While you certainly can use the spring clamp to wrap sections of hair and create traditional curls, we also love this attachment for making Hollywood-style S-waves.
Grab a section of hair with the clamp and push upward slightly to create a soft bend, working your way to the ends.
For Polished, Pro-Level Results: Use the Marcel Clamp
Professional hairstylists swear by marcel irons for their versatility, but this clamp is useful even if your styling skills aren’t quite expert level.
Use the marcel clamp to curl the bottom two or three inches of your hair, a trick that will give body and movement to your style.
