Tip 3: Know Your Curling Irons -- and What They're Made Of What's the secret to mastering how to curl hair like a pro? Knowing your curling irons. Just like our hair, curling irons come in all shapes and sizes and are made with different materials. Knowing which curling iron is best suited for you could just be your hair-curling saving grace.
Ceramic and tourmaline irons: These are the first choice of professionals because they are the healthiest for your hair. Moticka says ceramic irons disperse heat through your hair more evenly, while tourmaline irons control frizz by releasing negative ions that close the cuticle down and lock in moisture. For a wand that will give you shine and keep you frizz-free, try the T3 Whirl Convertible Styling Wand, $185.
Gold and titanium irons: These are good conductors of heat, but won't protect against frizz. Try Hot Tools Professional Spring Curling Iron, $49.95.

I have full thick curly hair, and I straighten it. This article was interesting, but truly of no interest to me.

My hair never holds curls when I use a curling iron. I'm going to try some of the tips in the "bouncy curls" slide and see if I can get my hair to look good with a curling iron!
