Set curling wand to desired heat suitable for your hair. If you have thin hair, consider a lower temp. I have thick hair so I turn the heat up just a little.

Brush your hair to make sure there are no tangles. While the wand is heating up, separate your hair into two sections, one on top and one on bottom. For more volume, use more sections.

Hold for 5-10 seconds then release. Remember to spritz hairspray whenever you feel necessary. I don't use much just because I don't favor it but it will hold curls longer.

Keep curled hair in front, separate from the uncurled hair. Alternate the position of the wand, either in front of hair or behind with each section. Continue until done with bottom section of hair.
