“A double-barrel iron gives off tight S-waves. Wrap your hair in a figureeight pattern. It’s not easy to use, so practice first with the iron turned off,” says Danny Jelaca, owner and founder of Danny Jelaca in Miami Beach, Florida. Professional Salon 2" Barrel Curler, $47, HotTools.com
classic barrel
“You can’t go wrong with this traditional iron. Keep in mind that the smaller the barrel, the more ringlet-like your curls will look. A bigger barrel on long hair will create romantic curls,” says Yola Pacyniak of Sine Qua Non Salons in Chicago. T3 BodyWaver 1.75 " Professional Curling Iron, $149, Sephora.com
