Overview of types of hair curlers

Modern beauties have practically ceased to do perm. This type of styling has passed into the past and has become irrelevant. Nobody wants to wear a washcloth on their heads anymore. This legendary hairstyle has been replaced by very beautiful curls. They can be made quickly thanks to a device such as a curling iron. Some representatives of the fair sex have several copies at home at once, with the help of which you can create extraordinary beauty on your hair. Curls made with the help of modern devices are distinguished by sophistication and naturalness.

To date, various types of curling iron have been developed. Women of fashion do not even think about the fact that in the last century, in order to wind their hair quickly, women had to use so-called curling irons, which were heated with an open fire. Today, lovers of beautiful hairstyles can always afford to look presentable thanks to the curling devices. Let's consider the types of pouches in more detail.

This model looks like this: cylinder with clamp. The clamp is needed to hold the tip of the curl, and a strand is wound onto the cylinder (it heats up to a rather high temperature). Thus, cool curls are obtained. Also, with the help of the classic model, the hair can be simply pulled out. The products are very popular, as they are easy and simple to work with.

If the curling iron is about 1 cm in diameter, then the curls are quite small. The wider base of the device allows for sophisticated curls.By the way, even 10 years ago, only such devices were used by women to quickly tidy up their hair.

This type of product is no different from the previous type. The curling iron has exactly the same shape of the working surface, but only narrowed at the end. A more sophisticated option allows you to perform curls in such a way that they are larger closer to the roots, and by the end the curls look narrower. Thus, you can easily add volume to your hairstyle.

However, with the help of this device, you can only curl the curls, but you will not be able to straighten them. And one more difference from the classic version of the device: such models do not always have a clamp with which the tip of the curl is held. That's why, if you do not have heat protective gloves, you can easily burn yourself.

This option is considered unusual. The triangular base allows for very original curls. They come out non-standard and have an angular structure. Not always, but quite often, a triangular nozzle comes in addition to the set. Such a device is quickly installed and removed from the heated base.

It differs in two working surfaces at once. Thus, when curling, the curls are zigzag. However, it is necessary to adapt to the use of such a model. In this case, the strand is wound in the form of an eight and gradually pulled down to the very end. When wrapping, 2 barrels are used at once. This model often does not have clamps. Therefore, be careful when working with the device, otherwise you may get burned. But sometimes manufacturers provide clips on some copies.

The name speaks for itself. And this product has 3 barrels at once (they can be of different diameters), which are equipped with a strong clamp... When curls are curled, the strand from the very root is placed on cylinders and secured with a clip. If the hair is long, then the procedure is repeated until the length of the curl ends. Curls come out not voluminous, but hold securely.

Has a shape about the same as a cone curling iron. Often, the spiral function is performed by a nozzle, which is put on a conical curling iron as an addition. The curl configuration is the same as if you were using a cone curling iron. Only the process might seem more time consuming. In order for the strands to fit into the spiral fixture, they must be very thin.

Immediately you need to make a reservation that its price may not be to everyone's liking. And all because this model has a built-in device that independently winds the strand and heats it up to the optimum temperature. In such a device, you yourself can choose the desired heating temperature and the shape of the curl.

Before you buy a curling iron, you must decide on its coverage. Modern models not only have different configurations, but may differ in the quality of hair curling. If you constantly use a low-quality device, you can significantly damage your hair. It must be remembered that the quality of the curling iron is affected by the coating of the working surface.

So let's see what kind of coverings are available.

• Let's start with the metal coating. This material has been known for a long time. It was from it that the curling irons were made, which were the forerunners of modern options. So, this coating spoils the hair. After heating on such a device, they are very dry. And all due to the fact that when heated, ions are released and quickly absorbed into the hair. They are the main reason for drying hairstyles.Therefore, you should not choose the model with a metal coating, despite the fact that this is the cheapest option. It is better not to save on yourself.

• The most popular coating is teflon... This material does not spoil the hair. However, over time, this coating wears off, and the curling iron begins to spoil the hair.

• An equally popular coating is ceramics... And this option is the safest in terms of use. But remember that this material is very fragile and must be handled with care so as not to harm your hair.

• Models titanium coated are distinguished by a high price, and this is their main disadvantage. In terms of use, they are perfect even for fragile hair, since it is this type of curling iron that is distinguished by its careful attitude to hair.

• The most expensive models are produced tourmaline coated... This is the last word in the production of flatware. And, of course, this coating contributes to the respect for the hair.

Curling irons that are produced today have different diameters. When you are considering choosing a curling iron for your hair, you need to decide on this factor. The future look of your hairstyle directly depends on this. In order to make a choice, you need to rely on the following information.

• If you have long hair and want to have a brushed-dry effect on your hair, then you need to purchase pliers with two-inch (50 mm) shank. This model is very suitable if you have a cascade haircut. To accentuate the beauty of your hair, twist the curls in different directions.
• To create voluminous curls you will need a pair of tongs with a working surface diameter of 38 mm. Just remember that beautiful waves will not work on very long hair. To keep the curls for a long time, treat each individual strand with varnish before wrapping. You need to start winding them from the ends. After completing the operation, secure the curl with a clip. This should be done with each curl. When finished, remove the clamps and straighten the strands in the desired direction.
• Popular cylinder diameter curling iron - this is a curling iron with a size of 32 mm. Hair can be curled from ends to roots, or vice versa, from roots to ends.
• For medium hair length and even for short hair, curling irons with a diameter of 25 mm are suitable. It's best to choose the optimal temperature, but be careful if you have very thin strands. Otherwise, you can burn them. After curling the curls, treat them with varnish. You will end up with very tight strands.
• To those who love retro curls, you will need a curling iron with a diameter of 19 mm. They turn out to be cool and are quite suitable for use in a hairstyle for a celebration. In addition, such pronounced strands are suitable for use in a "bun" hairstyle.
• Quite natural curls are obtained with 16 mm pliers. The hairstyle does not come out very fluffy, but the curls fall separately from each other in beautiful waves.
• The pliers, which are 10 mm in diameter, are well suited for those who have natural curls... With the help of such a product, you can straighten them a little. If you spend a little more time than you usually spend on curling your hair, you can get tight curls.

In addition, modern curling irons can provide a wide variety of attachments. You buy one product, and you get several types of pins at once. Moreover, the attachments are easy to change, and their variety is amazing.
