I don’t know about you, but my hair does not want to hold a curl. So, what size curling iron should I use?
Choosing a curling iron barrel size is not easy. I found this guide from hairstylingtoolsinfo.com
CURLING IRON BARREL SIZES FOR HAIR LENGTHS AND CURL SIZES
3/8″ Barrel Size: Very Short hair styles and very small tight curls
1/2″ Barrel Size: Short hair styles and very small tight curls
5/8″ Barrel Size: Short to medium hair lengths and small curls
3/4″ Barrel Size: Medium hair lengths and medium loose curls
1″ Barrel Size: Medium to long hair and large or loose curls
1 1/4″ Barrel Size: Medium to long hair and big loose curls. Also great for adding volume and lift at the roots
1 1/2″ Barrel Size: Medium to long hair and big loose curls. Also great for adding volume and lift at the roots
2″ Barrel Size: Medium or long hair and extra large loose curls and waves. Also great for adding volume and lift at the roots
