Product Information

It may seem like a good idea to go for a curling wand that reaches the hottest temperatures, but keep in mind that such a model won’t always deliver the best results.

Metal steam: This type of barrel can be good for thin hair that doesn’t easily hold curl. It releases steam, which helps replace the moisture the metal removes. The steam also helps the hair hold curls in place for longer. We've also featured a hair waver below, which is a three-barrelled styling tool that's designed to create mermaid or beach waves with ease. How we test

Despite looking very similar, not all curling wands are made from the same material. It’s actually rather important to know what the difference is when choosing a device, since some of these materials are better for your hair than others. Tapered - If you're after a more natural and relaxed curl, then the tapered tool is the one for you. Using this means that the curl will be tighter at the root, getting looser as it gets down to the ends. or larger -Large barrel curlers are the way to go if you're after gorgeous, super-smooth bouncy waves. Brand-wise, ghd and Cloud Nine are high up there on our wish list and well worth the investment for their long lasting benefits and salon-worthy finish. So, is a curling wand or a curling tong better?
