Anyone? I've tried to wave my hair with straighteners, but don't have the skillz.

I find a curling tong much easier to use than a wand - the tong has a clippy bit that grips the hair so that I don't have to burn my fingers trying to hold the hair against the barrel.

What do you use, FourEyesGood?

It's a cheap Boots own brand tong (£10) but I quite fancy the idea of getting a better one (maybe with a thinner barrel for smaller curls, although I can't decide about this).

Babyliss curling wand it's so so good!

Cheesymonster · 11/09/2017 20:26

Also Babyliss, the conical one.

I can curl mine but they just drop out within an hour.

FourEyesGood · 11/09/2017 20:44

The Babyliss one is the one I find so frustrating!

I got mine from beauty bay. Was £55 IIRC. Ive had normal brands before (babyliss etc) & this is so much better. Recommended by my hairdresser.
Get lovely beachy waves or big glamorous curls that last until the next wash.
