My hair is very straight and whenever I've used tongs in the past the curls seems to have dropped out by the end of the night, no matter what product I put on it. The look I want to achieve is a 1940s, side-swept glamorous curl and I want it to last as long as possible- are heated rollers better than a curling wand/tongs for this?
The only thing that puts me off rollers is that I feel like with a wand I'm in control of the direction of the curl etc- with rollers I would feel like it's in the hands of the gods!
