A curling iron is a small appliance used to curl the hair. It features a metal barrel that is heated.

The following recommendations are made to get the best results from your curling iron:

1. Use no larger than one to two inch sections at each time
2. If you have short hair, it is best to start at the crown
3. If you have medium to long hair, it is best to start in the back
4. Hold the iron in place for ten seconds before releasing
5. If you have long hair, you may pin curls in place while curls are cooling
6. After curls are cooled, spray with a hair spray to hold

Prolonged use of a curling iron may make hair dry and brittle. It is recommended to add extra hair conditioner to help protect the hair.
