Description ironing
The iron is intended for straightening hair rather than twisting. The device has special nozzles that allow curling curls in both horizontal and vertical position. The device has a regulator to control the level of heating plates. Most often they are three: low, medium, maximum mode. His choice depends on the type of hair. Low is suitable for thin and weak ones; maximum is recommended for thick, unruly curls.
Note, when using the iron, you can both straighten and twist the strands at the very roots, creating additional volume and beautiful flowing curls.
The device is produced with several types of coating:

The device is shaped like tongs with plates. Sometimes it has an electronic display to control the heating temperature.
Their difference
Different irons from curling, above all, the appointment. Spiral, dense, elastic curls are obtained with the help of curling. The shape depends on the diameter of the curling iron, it is quite simple to use it.
The iron, in fact, is a kind of curling. The main purpose is to straighten strands, giving well-groomed, smoothness. When using forceps with a nozzle, you can achieve light large curls. Unlike curling, the iron gives curls a more natural look.
What curls are obtained
When winding strands on curling, the following curls are obtained:

Complexity of execution
Despite the ease of operation of ploek, irons, it is not always possible to achieve the desired result. Here are many important secrets. The main difficulty of self-winding the hair on the device is improper adherence to the time and temperature regimes, as well as neglect of the rules for preparing the strands.
To keep the curls from losing their appearance and shape, and the hairstyle lasts as long as possible, you must:
- Wash the head so that the fat covering the hairs does not interfere with the creation of curls.

Cone curling iron
Because of the shape, stylists call this carrot styler. When wound, strands are more voluminous at the roots and finely wound at the ends, which gives the styling a retro motif. “A conical styler is suitable for medium-length hair cascaded. I recommend exposing the maximum temperature, since at medium and low temperature conditions the strands will warm up for a long time, and the curls will turn out to be quite small, which is not very beautiful, ”explains Ivan Subota, top stylist of the Milfey salon, City.
“Cone is well suited for all currently relevant textures. For example, it is a wave from the middle of length with straight ends. This is convenient, since there is no element in the conical curling iron covering the hair, so it is easier to leave the tip straight. In addition, cone-shaped curling irons are very convenient for selecting the diameter of the wrap. If you twist at the base, where the diameter is larger, then the waves are more free. And, accordingly, the opposite: the closer to the end, the smaller the curl ”, - considers Karina Kotova, Matrix technologist.
Spiral curling iron
The curling rod is a cylinder with a helix-like relief applied to it. During use, the hair gets into the grooves and more tightly wound. “Such a curling iron is suitable to make curls from the evening, then the styling will last the whole next day and will look even better in the morning. This is very convenient if you are going to fly. The choice of diameter is also a very individual question. We must proceed from the fact whether you want large or small curls, ”says Anna Khachaturova, art colorist, Aldo Coppola Barvikha.
“Usually spiral curlers are used for long hair and medium length on soft curly hair or thin hair to create clear spiral curls,” adds Oksana Gagina, manager of ghd.
“Spiral curling iron - to create vertical curls. As a stylist, I was displeased with her: it is difficult to cheat and ugly goes. It's easier for me to screw it upright on a regular thin curtain. Spiral - for those who do not know how to wind their hair at all, so that they can see how each strand should be wound along a groove, ”argues Olga Babich, creative partner of L'Oréal Professionnel.
The most versatile styler for home use - iron. They can both wind the hair, and straighten. When choosing it is important to pay attention to the fact that the iron is as smooth as possible - then the hair will slide along it - and the wire rotates around its axis. Having learned to use the iron, you can easily twirl the hair from the face and inside for a few minutes. You can also make curls in the style of beach waves with an iron.
Cylindrical curling iron
This classic curling iron is suitable for creating both the smallest curls in the afro style, and wave-like and soft - depending on the diameter. It is very simple to choose the diameter of such a curling iron: the larger it is - the larger the curl, the smaller - the smaller the curl. “It is best to use a caret on a medium or large diameter styler to twist the hair down, as is done in the classic version of the caret. If the diameter is small, the head will look like a ball, ”advises Olga Babich.
“It is most convenient to wind very long hair on a curling iron of medium diameter. Because of its own gravity, hair will straighten faster and need additional fixation. You can scroll through the hair with forceps and pin each strand for as long as the styling is created. So the strands will cool down and the waves will last longer, ”says Anna Khachaturova.
Automatic curling iron
The strand is automatically captured into the camera and evenly warms up. The result is a beautiful crisp curl. “This option is suitable for travel or for those who do not know how to twist curls at all,” says Matrix technologist.
“Usually, automatic curling is used to create clear curls for long hair and medium length,” adds Oksana Gagina.
Styler with different nozzles
The easiest option is a styler with lots of different nozzles. Usually, the kit includes several curling nozzles with different diameters, spiral-shaped hair curling irons and tongs. "For long hair, it is better to choose elongated multifunctional stylers with a large number of nozzles of various diameters that will allow you to experiment with hair: make curls of different volume, create a basal volume or twist the tips," recommends Ivan Subota.
How to choose coverage
Now you can find stylers with metal, teflon, ceramic and tourmaline coatings. Each of them distributes heat differently and heats up. “Teflon-coated hairs are more gliding and shiny, reducing the risk of them drying out. Minus coverage - fragility. The ceramic coating is uniformly heated, so it distributes heat equally in the hair. Tourmaline coating is one of the best today, it is the safest hair, does not overdry and does not spoil them. Tourmaline tends to highlight a large number of negatively charged ions when heated, thereby removing static electricity from the hair, the scales are closed, and moisture is retained inside, ”says Anastasia Gerlinskaya, top stylist of the Muscovite brow & beauty bar.
The need for ionization mode
Many stylists and users consider stylers with the ionization mode a waste of money and generally a marketing ploy. There is also no evidence of benefit and harm, so everyone decides for himself. “I cannot say how necessary the ionization mode is in hair instruments. Now all manufacturers take care to ensure that the tongs have a coating of very good and safe materials that do not take over the laying means, ”says Anna Khachaturova.
“How many times I have not used stylers with the ionization mode, I did not feel much of a difference. Manufacturers say it should be palpable. Hair should not be electrified and lays down better, ”says Karina Kotova.
“The ionic technology allows to reduce static voltage and eliminate the effect of hair puffing by performing styling two times faster than a regular hair dryer due to the grinding of water molecules. When styled with an ionizer, hair shine increases, ”explains Oksana Gagina.

I need to adapt to the iron. I tried it, it turned out so badly. I think the curling is better.
comb brushing, hair dryer .. gorgeous curls are obtained. look in the internet how to do hot styling. long write laziness
I have a hair iron and a large round curling iron. With curling, more curls are obtained, but sloppy curls are better with an iron. Look technology on YouTube, how to wind hair on the iron for such curls.
I don't like the curling iron, I bought it two years ago and it lies idle, if there is an iron now, try it, watch the video on YouTube. It is easier for me to cope with an iron, on a curling iron ugly tips I get) And simpler big hair curlers)
I don't like the ironing, it turns out differently on the left and the right, and generally the curling is more convenient.
If you choose between these two, then definitely with a curling iron, with the irons until you learn how to handle, you can burn all your hair!
And so, I can advise for the curls to be beautiful, to dry hair in flagella, and then just put the comb round with a hairdryer, so there will be less harm.
