Use a large-barreled curling iron to make waves like Scarlett Johansson's!

If you have long hair that reaches past your shoulders, it can be hard to find new ways to style it – particularly if your hair is thick or coarse. One common problem that long-haired ladies run into when it comes to styling is that the heaviness of their hair pulls the curl right out, making it difficult to create spirals or ringlets. But when you look at beautiful Hollywood stars like Scarlett Johansson, it’s clear that achieving gorgeous waves is a definite possibility – you just have to have the right tools in your beauty arsenal! So what are the best curling irons for long hair?

Generally, it’s best to choose a curling iron with a larger barrel if you have hair that is shoulder-length or longer. In my personal experience, I think the best curling irons for long hair are those with barrels that are 1 1/2″ in diameter. Using a large-barreled iron with allow you to create luxurious, loose waves just like Scarlett’s, and since you’re not attempting Shirley Temple-esque little girl curls, your hair will be able to hold the style much better. Plus, using curling irons with large barrels will prevent you from having to spend hours dividing your hair into tiny sections and curling them one by one! Larger curling irons can handle more hair, so it will take you less time to create your new look.
