Every woman tries to look good and change her image. Some love straight hair, others dream of curls. Wavy curls can be created in many ways, one of which is winding strands on curlers. They will create natural curls without harming the hair.
Which curlers are better to choose?
If you know exactly what your hairstyle will be of curls, in the creation of which curlers will participate, then It remains only to choose the right model.
- Boomerang curlers. This type is designed to create curls of different diameters. These curlers are considered the most reliable and convenient, because they do not affect the hair in a temperature way and do not have elastic bands and clips, which favorably affects the structure of curls. Curlers have a rubber or foam base on a flexible shaft. They can be wound for the night, they are comfortable, do not interfere with sleep. It is best used on wet hair, as a dense structure may prevent very wet hair from drying out well. If the strands are dry when wound, you may get an undesirable volume.
The use of "boomerangs" on short hair will create the volume of your hairstyle, and on long hair there will be distinct wavy curls. You can use them often. They do not spoil the structure and quality of hair.
- Wooden. Made of natural material and designed for winding dry hair. Wet can transfer moisture to the wood, from which the hairstyle will bend for a long time. Of course you can’t sleep in such devices, it is better to start the process in the morning and walk all day.For a long time they are not enough, since wooden curlers absorb fat from the head and get very dirty. Winding up on this type is very difficult, because thin strands are taken and wound strictly into cut spirals.
Before use, mousse or foam is applied to the curls to increase fixation. This type of wrap is more suitable for long hair. From it, thin spirals are obtained, creating a strong volume, similar to the hairstyle of Africans.
- Metal. The most reliable and durable, have a low cost. The use is quite difficult, because you need to properly wind the hair and pull it with an elastic band. These curlers are only suitable for wet or wet strands. Due to the presence of holes in them, the winding process can be accelerated by using a blow dryer. Of course, the metal on the head is felt, sleeping in such devices is uncomfortable. The size of the curl wave size depends on their size. The downside is the strong electrification of the hair and with prolonged use, the appearance of split ends.
- Plastic The best curlers for hairstyles for long curls. Comfortable enough and lightweight, provide gentle curls, fixed with elastic bands or sticks. They wash well, have small spikes for better fixation of the strands, the hairstyle remains for a long time, as it dries well through the holes in the devices. Of course, sleeping in them will not work. Hairstyle can be quickly done with a hairdryer. For light curls, you can slightly moisten them and dry them for 20 minutes with hot air. Curlers are suitable for long and short hair. The amount of curls depends on the diameter of the product.
The disadvantage of such plastic devices is the tearing of some hairs on the spikes when spinning the strands.
- Rubber. They have a small diameter, dense shape without holes, are well fixed on the head, which allows you to leave the curlers at night. Have a low cost. They are strongly pressed tightly to the head and are often able to tear at the attachment point. Therefore, it is better to apply on short hair. They will dry faster, and the hairstyle will last a long time.
- Foam rubber. The most comfortable, soft, do not put pressure on the head and well absorb excess moisture from the strands. Do not make creases, increase basal volume. Perfect for long hair. Despite the fact that such a model wears out quickly, it can easily be bought at a low price.
- Thermo curlers. Such devices are in the form of dense cylinders with small spikes. They are heated by heat, contain wax or paraffin. Therefore, they warm the hair well, which is why it is wound very much. Their use is inconvenient because they are hot and can be burned. Long-term use is undesirable, as these curlers dry hair very much, especially the tips. They are quite heavy and uncomfortable, but they cope well with their function. The curls are uniform, hold for a long time.
- Velvet They are used mainly in professional salons, as home use is quite inconvenient. A special velor coating protects the hair from tangling and prevents mechanical damage. Thanks to the holes, the air circulation increases and passes through the curls, providing quick drying. They are able to curl short hair and medium length. They are fixed with special sticks.

Curlers with rubber fixation can leave creases, which of course will affect the hairstyle. It is better to use sticks or hairpins for fixing. Never wring the ends when untwisting.
