Crimp hair is a popular retro style from the 80’s. Many fads from the 80’s like hair and clothes are making a comeback. Some women get tired of wearing their hair the same way and want a new hairstyle without going to the hair salon. The hairstyle can be created at home with the right tools.


  1. Shampoo and deep condition your hair.


  2. Blot the hair for excess water.


  3. Plug the crimping iron into an electrical outlet while blow drying your hair. The crimping iron will be heated for use when finished with blow drying.


  4. Blow dry your hair until completely dry. After blow drying, you want to brush the hair smooth and should be free of tangles.


  5. Take a small section of your hair and put between the plates of the crimping iron. You want to press down gently on the hair and hold for 2 to 3 seconds. Start at the crown of your head and work all the way down to the ends.
