Step 4: Divide your hair into 3 horizontal layers.
The bottom layer is closest to your neck.You can use a clip to get the other 2 sections out of the way.All of your hair gets styled, and creates volume, if you curling it in sections.
Step 5: Wrap hair around your curling tool.
Start from one side of your head.If you want to shape your hair away from your face, wrap strands around the curling iron.If you wrap your hair around your face, it will cover you.Curl your hair with a curling iron, curling wand, or flat iron.If you use a curling iron, you can wrap your hair around the barrel without using a wand.If you want to keep your hair in place, you can use the curling iron.You can wrap 2 in sections of hair around your iron.
Step 6: For 5 to 10 seconds, hold your hair in the curling tool.
Coarse, thick hair takes a few seconds more than fine hair.The section of hair is wrapped around your iron or wand.Release it from the iron if it feels very hot.Once you release your curling tool, let it cool down.It can ruin the curl if you touch them while they are still warm.If your iron is at a lower temperature, it will take longer to curl.
Step 7: When you have finished the first layer, free another layer of hair.

Depending on the length of your bob and your hair type, it may take at least an hour or 2 for your braids to dry.If you feel different sections in your braids, it's time to check if your hair has dried.Give it more time to dry if they are still damp.If you don't have time to blow dry your braids, use medium or low heat.This could cause your hair to fall out.If you want, you can let your braids air-dry overnight.If you want the best results, use a hooded hair dryer.
