How to Create Different Hairstyles with Your Hair Straightener: Tips & Tricks

A hair straightener is one of the most versatile beauty tools you can own. While it's traditionally used to achieve sleek, straight hair, did you know you can use your straightener to create a variety of other stylish looks? From soft waves to bouncy curls, the possibilities are endless. In this guide, we’ll show you how to use your Terviiix hair straightener to create multiple stunning hairstyles for every occasion.

1. Classic Sleek & Straight Hair

Let’s start with the classic look. A hair straightener’s primary function is to create smooth, straight hair. Here’s how to do it right:

• Step 1: Start with clean, dry hair. Apply a heat protectant spray to shield your hair from damage.
• Step 2: Section your hair into small, manageable parts.
• Step 3: Slowly glide the straightener from the roots to the tips, applying gentle pressure.
• Pro Tip: For extra shine, run a serum through your hair after straightening.

This is the go-to look for a polished, sleek style that works for both casual days and formal events.

2. Soft Beach Waves

Who doesn’t love effortless, beachy waves? You can achieve this popular look with your hair straightener in a few simple steps:

• Step 1: Apply a light mousse or styling gel to your hair to create texture.
• Step 2: Take a small section of hair, clamp the straightener around it, and twist it away from your face.
• Step 3: Hold for 3-5 seconds before releasing the hair.
• Step 4: Continue this process in small sections around your head, alternating the direction of each wave to add volume and dimension.
• Pro Tip: Finish with a texturizing spray to give your waves a messy, beachy vibe.

Soft waves are perfect for a laid-back, boho-chic look, or for a night out with friends.

3. Bouncy Curls

Need voluminous, bouncy curls? Your straightener can do the trick, too. Here’s how to use it to create stunning curls:

• Step 1: Start with clean, dry hair and a heat protectant spray.
• Step 2: Take a small section of hair and clamp it with the straightener near the roots.
• Step 3: Twist the straightener 180 degrees and pull it down slowly, keeping the tension in the hair.
• Step 4: Release the curl and let it cool.
• Pro Tip: For tighter curls, twist the straightener tighter. For looser, more voluminous curls, use a larger section of hair and less tension.

Bouncy curls add volume and glam, making them perfect for special events like parties, weddings, or any time you want to feel extra fabulous.

4. Flicked-Out Ends (The ’90s Trend)

This style is a fun throwback to the '90s, where the ends of the hair are flipped outward for a retro, playful look. Here’s how to achieve the flicked-out ends:

• Step 1: After straightening your hair, take a small section of the ends of your hair.
• Step 2: Clamp the straightener at the end of the section, then turn it outward to create a slight curl.
• Step 3: Hold for a second and release. Repeat for all sections of your hair, focusing on the ends.
• Pro Tip: Use a little hairspray to keep the flicks in place all day long.

This style is perfect for adding some flair to your straight hair and is great for casual or weekend looks.

5. Sleek & Polished Ponytail

A straightener can also help you create a super sleek, polished ponytail. Here's how to make sure your ponytail looks perfect:

• Step 1: Straighten your hair first, focusing on smoothing out any frizz.
• Step 2: Gather your hair into a high or low ponytail.
• Step 3: Use the straightener to smooth the hair in the ponytail, making sure there are no bumps or flyaways.
• Step 4: To finish, wrap a small section of hair around the base of your ponytail for a clean, elegant look.
• Pro Tip: For added shine, apply a light serum to the ponytail for a polished finish.

This is the perfect look for workdays, professional events, or when you want to keep your hair out of your face but still look put together.
