Hot tools are where it’s at for this looking to replicate salon styles. I’ve tried with other cheap brands and they curls do not last and do not hold. It took me a bit to figure out what diameter I needed but this size seems to work the best for me!

I’ve now had this curling iron for years. It heats up super fast so I can do emergency front hair pieces, and can curl a decent amount of hair at once when I’m doing my whole head.
