Women have many tricks and secrets on how to attract the attention of men. One of the main time-tested ways to create an attractive look is to transform straight hair into luxurious curls. There are many methods for creating bouncy curls or messy waves. If time is short and you need to quickly curl your curls at home, express options are suitable. The main thing is that the result of such a perm will be no worse than with careful and lengthy styling.
Curling curls in 5 minutes is not a fantasy, but a completely doable mission, if you know the main features and secrets of the process. Of course, a lot depends on the length of the hair: the shorter, the faster. But also long curls will not require much time if you follow the basic rules:
- The most long-lasting curls are obtained on freshly washed hair. Don't be lazy and get the maximum effect.
- Blow dry your hair from top to bottom from the root zone. It is better to choose medium temperature.
- To keep your hair shiny, rinse it with cold water or treat it with an ice cube after washing.
- Small curls last longer than large, voluminous ones.
- Before styling with a hair dryer, curling iron, hot rollers or straightener, do not forget about thermal protection.
- Do not take too thick strands: the curl will turn out weak.
- Girls with large features should curl their curls towards the face, inward, with small ones - outward.
- When using the iron, do not heat it too much. The optimal temperature is 180°.
- Curling with hot tools is done on dry hair, in other cases - on slightly damp hair.
- Using a cone curling iron you can create beautiful spiral curls.
- To comb before styling, use a wide-toothed comb. Set aside the massage brush for other occasions.
- You can curl your hair using curlers vertically or horizontally. The first will give beautiful, flowing curls, the second will add additional volume.
- The larger the diameter of the rollers or curling iron, the larger the curls will be, and vice versa.
- To ensure that your hairstyle lasts for a long time, treat your hair with styling products. A hairspray, spray, mousse or medium hold gel will help maintain the naturalness of your curls.
- Do not comb finished curls. Style your hair by separating the strands with your fingers. The only exception may be light waves.
Advice. Experiment with different quick styling methods in advance to find the one that works best for you. Then, in a force majeure situation, you won’t have to think about how to quickly curl your hair.
How to quickly and easily curl your hair at home
To get quick results you will probably need to use a hair dryer. In some cases - only for drying, in others - for full styling. Therefore, for such urgent situations, you need to have a quality heat protectant on hand. The spray or mousse should be marked as suitable for styling and not for straightening curls.
Combs will also come in handy:
- brushing (if blow-drying is planned);
- with fine teeth (to create backcomb);
- with large teeth (for combing wet strands and applying styling or thermal protection along the entire length).
Using a curling iron
Even long hair can be made curly in 10–15 minutes, not to mention short hair. Step-by-step instructions for DIY curling:
- Divide your head with a horizontal parting approximately down the middle.
- Tie up the top part with a crab or elastic band.
- Divide the bottom one by narrow strands, 1–2 centimeters thick.
- Grab the tip of the first one with a curling iron, placing the device perpendicular to the strand.
- Curl the curl towards the roots.
- Hold the curl for no longer than 15 seconds and release.
- Do the same with all the strands from the bottom, then from the top.
- Style your finished hairstyle and spray with hairspray.
Advice. You need to curl your curls not with a classic curling iron, but with a conical curling iron from the middle of the strand. The ends should fall on the narrow part of the device, then you will get a beautiful curl.
Using curlers
Not all products are suitable for quick winding. You can quickly curl your curls using Velcro, boomerangs or thermo, which form curls during cooling (15–20 minutes).
The universal technology for using any rollers is as follows:
- Divide the prepared hair into several parts. Usually this is the crown, sides, and back of the head.
- Curling begins from the crown area. Take one thin strand, comb it and pull it perpendicular to your head.
- Wind it starting from the ends.
- Fix as close to the root zone as possible.
- Do the same with all the strands from the crown area, then move to the sides and back of the head.
- If you are in a hurry, dry your hair with a hairdryer.
- Unwind your curls, moving from the back of your head up.
- Model and fix your hairstyle.
You can quickly curl up with the “magic” Magic Leverage curlers, if you have some experience in using them. Some girls note that mastering an unusual curling technique - pulling a strand with a special hook through a fabric cover - Not everyone succeeds the first time.
Using an iron
Paradoxical but true: a device invented for hair straightening, used by modern women for quick curling. All you need:
- Divide your hair into medium-sized strands.
- Press one with an iron, stepping back about 5 centimeters from the ends. The device must be held perpendicular to the strand.
- Rotate the tool to point the bottom up.
- Wrap a strand around the hot device and move it towards the ends.
- Curl the rest of your hair in the same way.
Curling methods using a flat iron are not limited to this. You can make small snail curls out of your hair, wrap them in pieces of foil, and then alternately hold them for a few seconds between the plates of the iron.
Another option for express curling is to twist the strands into strands, and then go several times along the entire length of each of them with a hot tool, from the roots to the ends.
Using a hair dryer
Curly ends or light waves along the entire length - a tandem of a hair dryer and brushing can handle this task. At home you can do the styling like this:
- Divide your hair into two parts, gather the top one into a ponytail or secure it with a crab.
- Separating one strand from the lower tier, wrap it around the brush. Dry first with hot air, then with cold air.
- Remove the curl from the comb and spray with hairspray.
- Perform similar manipulations with the rest of the hair at the bottom.
- Perm the top tier in the same way.
Based on the ponytail hairstyle
One of the fastest styling methods is to use a “blank” in the form of a tail. It’s easy and simple to get wavy hair by twisting a bun on your head:
- Make a tight rope from the strands gathered into a ponytail.
- Wrap it around an elastic band to form a bun.
- Secure with hairpins and hairpins.
- After drying, unravel and lay.
A donut elastic band will help you create voluminous waves:
- Pass the tail through it so that the plump roll is level with the ends.
- Gradually twist all the hair around the elastic, moving from the inside to form a bun.
- Secure your hair with bobby pins.
- Remove all hairpins after your hair is completely dry.
About the same Those with long hair can quickly curl their ends. Gather your hair into a ponytail, divide it into strands and curl each one in any convenient way: with a curling iron, curlers or curlers. Dry your curls and cut the elastic.
Using a headband or sports elastic band
This method allows create beautiful natural curls:
- Having pre-prepared your hair, put on a headband.
- First twist the strand in the forehead area. Wrap it around the bandage.
- Connect each next part with the tip of the previous one until you reach the back of the head.
- Having completed one side in this way, proceed to the other.
- Lastly, tuck in the strands that will remain after curling the main part of your hair.
- After removing the bandage from your dry hair, straighten your curls.
By the way. Methods with a headband, a donut elastic band and a bun are good because these are full-fledged hairstyles. You won’t be ashamed to go out with them, and when you let them down the next day, you can admire your beautiful curls.
The easiest and easiest way to make curly hair is with a curling iron, flat iron or hairdryer. But hot curlers are very damaging to your hair. Professional stylists and hairdressers advise resorting to such methods as rarely as possible so as not to injure the structure of the hair shafts. Of course, there are situations when it is quite difficult to cope without a curling iron or hair dryer, especially when you need a quick result. But if you have at least 15–20 minutes of free time, it is better to spend it on styling using other methods.

Cooking time is 15-20 minutes.
How to cook with photos step by step
Boil eggs hard, cool and peel. Remove the spinal bone from the fish (so as not to grind your teeth). 
Grind the eggs using a fine grater. Mash the fish into fine crumbs with a fork. 
Mix grated eggs with mashed fish, add mayonnaise.
The pate is ready, you can make sandwiches from it for breakfast or a holiday feast. Not only that, but it also turns out delicious. 
Bon appetit!
Addition to the recipe:
Any canned fish with or without added oil is suitable for making pate, but not in tomato;
The composition of the pate can be supplemented with processed or soft (ricotta-type) cheese, chopped onions and/or garlic, fresh or frozen herbs (dill, parsley, basil, cilantro), spices (ground pepper, paprika), boiled grated carrots, finely chopped pickled cucumber or gherkins;
The pate can be used not only for spreading on bread, but also for filling snack tartlets.
Compound:
150 g canned fish in oil (tuna, salmon, mackerel)
*weight without oil, you will first need to drain it and leave the fish in a sieve or colander to drain all the excess oil.
1 egg and 1 yolk
125 g ricotta (or soft, non-acidic cottage cheese)
half a clove of garlic, salt
2 tbsp. grated cheese (Parmesan or any other hard cheese of your choice)
*Cheese is not the main ingredient, it makes the pate more tasty, but you can do without it)
1 medium boiled potato
* You can make pate without potatoes, then you just need to take a little more canned fish and a little more ricotta (cottage cheese).
Breadcrumbs
* You can also add chopped herbs, finely chopped olives or sweet peppers, fried mushrooms to the pate to taste...
Preparation (1 method):
Mash the potatoes, mix with eggs, ricotta, garlic, salt, canned fish and grind it all in a blender into a homogeneous mass. Then add grated cheese and breadcrumbs and mix.
You need to add enough breadcrumbs so that the mass becomes thicker and you can form it with your hands (approximately 3-4 tablespoons of breadcrumbs will be needed).
Place the mixture on a sheet of parchment paper, form a small “sausage” with your hands, wrap it in paper, twist and tie the ends (carefully so that the paper does not tear). Then wrap the “sausage” in foil and twist the ends again.
Place the “sausage” in foil in a fairly deep and wide saucepan or frying pan and add enough water so that the “sausage” begins to float a little. Cover with a lid, bring to a boil and cook over medium heat under the lid for 20-30 minutes (during cooking, I sometimes turn it over in the water). Then remove from the water, let cool, remove the paper and foil and wrap the finished pate in cling film, tying the ends.
Place in the refrigerator for several hours, after which the pate can be cut and served.
Method 2:
The mass for the pate is prepared in the same way. Place it in a cake pan (if not silicone, it is better to line it with parchment paper so that it is easy to remove the pate later) and bake the pate in the oven at 180 degrees for 20-30 minutes (make sure that the surface of the pate does not become too dry).
Allow to cool directly in the mold, then carefully remove and wrap the pate in cling film and place in the refrigerator for several hours.
3 way:
You can also make it from pate delicious croquettes. To do this, prepare the mass as described in the first method, form it into small cutlets or balls, roll in breadcrumbs and fry in vegetable oil on all sides until golden brown. Place the finished croquettes on a paper towel to drain off excess oil.
For cooking fish pate Ready or raw fish is suitable, as well as canned fish in oil or its own juice.
To prepare canned pate you need a minimum of time and a little culinary imagination. To allow the pate to set, you should use butter in the recipe. If the pate is made from raw fish and baked in the oven, you will need eggs and a little cream.
You can add to the pate:
- mayonnaise,
- ketchup,
- cream cheeses,
- cottage cheese.
A boiled yolk would be an excellent addition to the pate. To add spiciness – garlic, a little acid, add pickled cucumbers or lemon juice.
