Hair Curler

Hair curlers are tools that help you to style your hair into curls or waves. There are electric versions that apply heat to the hair in order to achieve the curl, and there are also nonelectrical options that provide heatless curls and styling options.

What are the different hair curler types?

For a heated option, there is the classic option of the curling iron or a curling wand. For curls that are much looser, there is the newer option of beachwaver curling iron. There are also tools that are used to create heatless curls. These most often come in the form of either a flexible rod or fabric that hair gets wrapped around and then set for several hours before taking the tools out. Often people choose to set their heatless curls overnight. Hot rollers are like a combination of the previous types of curlers in that they use rods and heat. Hair is wrapped around the hot rod and then set until the curls are ready to be released. A different option for creating curls is using hair curling products. Applying these to your hair can help develop big, bouncy curls.

Which curling tool is a good fit for you?

Picking the right curling tool for you is going to depend on your hair type. If you have short hair, you will want to use a wand so you can have short hair curls. If you already have a flat iron, you could try curling hair with a flat iron and see if you have success, so you can save yourself the hassle of getting a new product. If you're a man, there are curlers that may work better for you. You may want to search for hair curlers for men. If you are looking for an option for your hair that will be low damaging, you should look into trying heatless curls.
