When you think of curling your hair, what kinds of images come to mind? If your hair is naturally straight and you use your curling iron to create tightly coiled ringlets, or your hair tends to be frizzy and your curling iron helps give it wave and body, then you may be used to thinking of your curling iron as a weapon in your personal fight against your hair’s natural inclinations. However, many women are learning that some of the best curling irons can actually be used to enhance your hair’s normal texture, rather than battling against it! Take a look at Jessica Biel’s sexy, subtle waves for instance; would you ever imagine that a curling iron was used to achieve this look? It’s true! Jessica’s stylist simply wrapped medium-sized sections of her hair around a large (1 1/2″) barrel curling iron for a few seconds, then used the hands and a texturizing pomade to artfully tousle the hair before setting the entire look with light-touch hairspray. Voila – Jessica is red carpet ready, and her entire ‘do only took a few minutes! The best curling irons for each woman will depend on her hair length, whether her hair is straight, wavy, frizzy or naturally curly, and whether the hair is coarse or fine.
