Is your hair relaxed? If not, you'll probably need to straighten it first. Hot curlers are actually better for bouncy curls but if you want to use a curling iron, it's best to just wrap the hair around the barrel. Make sure your hair is completely dry and straight.

Try using a waxy pomade or a light gel (you might not want to use one with water as the first ingredient, though). Spread it lightly and evenly on a two-inch section of hair, comb through, and wrap around your curling iron. You want to hold for about 30 seconds then slide your iron out. For a great hold, pin the curl to your head with a bobby pin until it's completely cooled. Keep repeating until all of your hair is pinned and cooled, pop out the pins, shake it out, and you're good to go.
