Curling Tongs > Morphy Richards Curling Tongs > No

Advantages: Cheap, good hair curler, rotating cable - no tangled cable!!
Disadvantages: None really

These are curling tongs from Morphy Richards. I bought them about 2 months ago. I must say, that I am impressed with them!! I used them to put nice curls in my hair. The tongs were ridiculously cheap - under £5 in Asda! (Because talking of hair styling equipment, I've noticed hair-straighteners which cost £30 - £60!!, soo expensive!!). These heated tongs were an impulse buy, which have been fabulous. Benefits >>Very affordable! >>Cable can rotate ...
...cable. This is such a good safety feature, and makes handling the tongs so much easier. You can worry about how your hairstyle is turning out, rather than manoeuvring the appliance properly!! >>Effective at making good curls in my hair I've got thick shoulder length hair. Thick hair can be hard to style sometimes, but these heated tongs have been very effective. They come with a resting rack, which is in the middle of the tongs, which can be pushed ... Read review

Advantages: Makes really massive curls
Disadvantages: Doesn't work as well on some hair types

I got this product for christmas a few years ago and have hardly used it purely because I didn't particularly like the look as it made my hair too curly. Also, one side of my hair curled more than the other and it looked strange. On the otherhand, it didn't work very well with my sister and her hair hardly curled. I think this may be down to the type of hair you have. The product itself however is very good and easy to use. You unscrew the top and ...
...on and turn the curler on. After a few minutes it will work and you twist a strand of your hair round, clip it and then press the button at the top, after a little while you can unclip your hair to reveal a curl! Sometimes though I did burn the top of my hair a bit. I would recomend this to anyone who wants lovely curls and doesn't mind if their really curly! ... Read review

Advantages: Good for different hair types, good value for money
Disadvantages: Can give hair a dry frizzy look

...home, so I borrowed the Babyliss 2290AU off a friend. I must admit, I do have a bit of a 'love hate' relationship with them. I have medium length hair which is thick, so I liked the way they have a long ceramic coated barrel and I also liked the defined spiral guide on the barrel, which made curling easier. The curling tongs looks good, are simple to use and have ten different settings, making it suitable for most hair types (and good for thick hair). ...
...my hair, and it is mains operated, so no having to worry about replace energy cells. Although it has some good features and is a good idea, I found there were a few problems with these curlers. I firstly found that they gave my hair an unwanted frizzy look (although that can be sorted with a bit of hairspray). I also found that after I used them, my hair felt dry and looked a bit dull. Overall, I think these are good for their price, but if you could ... Read review

Advantages: Gives nice bouncy angel curls-like it's meant to
Disadvantages: Doesn;t have the power to work on all hair types

Carmen Girls Angel Curls, is a pink and girly hair curler directed at the teenage market. The design being so girly, will make any preteen/mid-teenage girl very happy; it's ideal for a present because it's good value for money aswell. It's RRP is £19.99, but it can be bought off the highstreet at £14.00, and I've evwen seen an Ebay listing for it for £4.00! The curls created are angel curls - ringlets. But aside from being a very decorative and ...
...too good for curling all hair types. Performance wise, the curler doesn't reach salon quality high heats, but then it's not priced at that level either. And even though the heat doesn't go that high, there is a steam function available to help set the curl. From my experience, having thick, long and straight hair, the curler simply did not create curls which could last, not even with superhold hairspray. Before I even finished curling my whole ...
