Curling Iron by Size
When you choose a curling iron for yourself, barrel size really
matters: your hair should be able to wrap around the barrel at least
1-1/2 times.
- 3/4 inch barrel is good for short hair and for creating tendrils
- 1 inch barrel is good for short to medium length styles, good for creating tendrils
- 1 -1/4 inch barrel is the most popular for mid-length and longer styles
- 1 -1/2 inch barrel is good for smoothing out wave and tipping ends under or out
- 2 inch barrel is good for smoothing out wave and giving just a bend to the ends
