When you use the ghd mk4 styler you can not only use it to straighten your hair but also style it. This is what we read all over the internet and even on our packages when we purchase them, but how many of us really know how to do this? Everyone wants that straight look and will do anything to get it, but they also want to style their new straight locks of hair to really push the limits. And although there are DVD's out there today that show you how to use your hair straighteners, not everyone can get to them. However, because we believe that it is the right of every straightener owner to know the tricks to styling their hair, we have compiled a few great ideas for you. The tips we are going to work on will be for those that want to style curls into their hair using an mk4 straightener by ghd.

First of all, the most important thing you need to remember is that you need to have your hair washed and fully conditioned before you use your straightener. If you do not then all the old product and dirt in your hair will get cooked in, and if you forget the ever important conditioning your hair will quickly get dried out. The next step would of course be to blow dry and brush out your hair. This is also important as well, unless you own wet to dry straighteners, otherwise you will cause your hair to frizz and loose the straight effect. Furthermore, along the lines of preparation to straighten, you will want to make sure you use the right products in your hair like the ghd Thermal Protector before you begin straightening it.

Once you have done all your preparations you will be ready to use your fantastic mk4 styler to kick up your hairstyle, and all you need to do is plug it in and wait for the beep telling you it is at the optimal temperature to use. Now comes the simple part of splitting your hair into two sections, and then separate them with hair clips or hair ties, anything you have available to keep them separate. Then you simply take one of the separated sections of your hair using your ghd mk4 styler, and starting at the bottom you curl the styler towards the top of your head.

You will want to repeat this process of starting at the bottom sections of your hair and slowly working your way curling it to the top pretty much like a traditional hot curling iron. This can take quite the getting use to for some people as curling irons have seemed to be only a thing of the past, but once you have gotten some practice in you will be good to go. What's more, if you invite some friends over one evening you can have a great time practicing using your ghd hair straighteners on each other. Just remember to have fun.
