I can't curl my hair with the Cortex flat iron? Its supposed to.?
I cannot curl my hair, nor make my hair wavy with the Cortex flat iron, and its made to do that and straighten. I did everything it told me to, I looked up videos, on the website and out of it, and it just doesn't work. It is a great straightener though. Does anyone else have this problem?

i suggest finding a stylist who can show you the technique and do it or you. My personal advice is this: If the flat iron plates are wide, they can wave but not curl. looking at the website you provided, that certain lat iron will work in curling your hair. dont be afraid to put it to the highest setting as it is actually better for the hair to got over it once with a very hot tool than to go over it 5 times with a warm one. now clamp the flat iron on a section of hair (preferrably not a super thick section)to where you want the curl to start. (eg. half way down the hair shaft or at the very roots) , turn the flat iron a complete 360 degrees and then pull straight down. now the trick is to NOT start at the ends of your hair and curl straight up.... why? in order for the hair to curl usin a flat iron, the hair must pass though the plates.... so by clamping at the roots (or wherever you want the curl to start) making a 260 degree turn and then pulling straight down... the hair actually passes through the plates while being curled. i know i know... complicated...im not gonna lie. it takes some practise but it works... thats how i teach my clients... and you can honestly use ANY flat iron it just depends on the width of the plates and how hot it gets.
here's a vid that might help that i found on of course... youtube
