What you get is more between a wave and a curl-and it all depends on your wrist movement.

Then you would release the strand and then reinsert the iron, and rotate your wrist in the opposite direction,' Marjan says. This one may take a few tries: 'You grab the iron, grab a strand of hair, rotate your wrist in one direction so you're creating a C-shape as you drive the iron down the hair. 'You kind of 'stamp' the iron on the hair.' 'You would grab a one inch section, and then you would push the hair through the iron in the shape of an S-wave as you gently open and close and press the iron against the hair,” she explains. You want it to be able to easily slide down the length of the hair in one movement.'
