It is not known why, but the fact that girls with straight hair are constantly striving to make them wavy has remained unchanged for many years. What caused this is still unknown, and it is unlikely that anyone will be able to give a specific answer to this question.
A bit of history
A long time ago, simple rags were considered one of the ways to curl hair: ordinary fabric was torn into many rectangles (necessary in size) and hair was twisted around them. After a while, curlers were invented, but they were one big "piece of iron", which was heated on a hot fire (already in later times, curlers were significantly improved). And now there are enough all sorts of devices in order to give waviness to hair: metal curlers, plastic, foam rubber, as well as various curling irons and stylers.
The first curling irons appeared in ancient Egypt, Babylon. It was quite difficult to control the temperature of their heating, since the device was heated on a fire, this led topermanent burns among users. And after hundreds of years, "curling irons" (at that time it was an ordinary metal rod) began to be heated on stoves.
Who became the author of the modern curling iron is not known to this day. History mentions that in 1866 Maxim Hiram patented an "improved" curling iron. Most sources point to 1870 as the year in which Maurice Lenteric and Marcel Gratier introduced a hair dryer with various attachments to create waves in the hair.
The first electric curling iron appeared in 1959 from the company BaByliss, over time it has been improved and modernized. Today, this model is in great demand among young people, and not only.
In this text, we will consider in detail the concept of "automatic hair curler", and also learn about its advantages and disadvantages.
Automatic curling iron and its main functions
Auto curler is a machine to create the curls that suit you. Its main and only function is to curl the hair. Depending on the device, you can make different waves on the hair. For example, in the Babyliss styler, there are 3 different modes for creating curls, which depend on the direction (right, left, automatic), temperature (250, 270, 290 degrees) and timer (8, 10 and 12 seconds). Thus, choosing a mode, you automatically choose the waviness of the hair.

How to choose a hair styler?
1. First of all, we pay attention to the material. The automatic curling iron should not be covered with metal (the metal surface heats up unevenly). Preference should be given to ceramic products, you can also pay attention to titanium and tourmaline coatings. Experts advise to buy a styler with a ceramic-tourmaline coating - it practically does not damage the hair.
2. We select a device based on its technical characteristics. The automatic hair curler must meet the following parameters:
- When using the appliance at home, its power should be between 25 and 50 watts. It depends on the power how long the styler will come to a usable condition (2, 3, 5 or 15 minutes).
- It is desirable to have a thermostat (hair structure ineveryone is different, therefore the temperature for curling hair is different for each girl).
- Pay attention to the cord. The automatic curling iron should be with a thick and rotating wire.
- Dia. Here you choose yourself, depending on what curls you need.
3. In order to be sure to choose exactly the curling iron that you need, you should read reviews on sites with descriptions of stylers on the topic "automatic curling iron", as well as read videos on the operation of these household appliances.
Tips when choosing a curling iron for a certain type of hair
For thin as well as weakened hair, preference should be given to curling irons with a low temperature regime (this will allow you to avoid problems such as split ends and dry, burnt hair). Please note that the curling iron should be perfectly smooth surface.
For owners of coarse hair and hair that is highly electrified, an automatic curling iron is suitable, in which hair is curled at high temperatures. Models with a warm supply mode, and preferably a hot air pressure, are ideal. And it is desirable that infrared rays are present in the styler, they will reduce the stiffness of the hair and add a little shine to them.
With long and thick hair, the process will be much more difficult, so buy a curling iron with fast heating and high temperature.
Types of pads
- Cylindrical curling iron (classic, round shaft).
- Conical (its tongs haveconical shape).
- Double or double-barreled.
- Triangular (distinguished by the presence of a triangular section).
- Three-barreled.
- Spiral curling iron (currently considered one of the most popular stylers).
Carefully follow all the instructions that are in the instructions for use of the device. Never drop the appliance and use it away from water (it is not recommended to use automatic curling irons in the bathroom, as high humidity and water can affect the performance of the styler's mechanisms).
You can use an automatic styler every day, but still not worth it, because although it is minimal, there is still a risk of hair damage.
And one more thing - do not give a curling iron as a gift. You can miscalculate with the necessary parameters, and the styler will simply ruin your girlfriend's or sister's hair…
Buy a curling iron exclusively for yourself, based on the characteristics of your hair and use it for he alth. Good luck!
