Curling my hair with a straightening iron problems. I need recommendations for a new cheap straightener?

I just started curling my hair with a straightening iron. I use a very cheap 13 dollar conair iron. The first few times it worked beautifully. After the 4th time, the cord started swiveling together and tangeled so much when i would curl my hair. During curling my hair, it would turn off from being so tangeled together. Anyone know a 1 inch straightening iron that curls your hair without the tangels being tangled? I'm looking for one thats at Target or Walmart for under 30 dollars.Curling my hair with a straightening iron problems. I need recommendations for a new cheap straightener?

you have to try to find a flat iron that has a cord that swivels at the base. usually at target they have the products on display so you can touch and feel the product. check the cord to see that it swivels where it connects the cord to the iron itself.
i really dont think its possible to get a straightener that is one inch in width that can easily curl your hair under 30$. but here is one that i use and i curl it in about 20 minutes and it heats up is about 8 seconds.
i got mine from walmart for 15 bucks its a andis and its a skinny one those work best and i went to beauty school and everyone always wanted to use mine cause it was better than their paul mitchells and their 100 dollar flat irons and i still see the one i got there
well i striaghten my hair every morning with the same striaghtner for the last year, i got it for like 20 bucks at marshals, and it works great, iv seen curling irons there too (and if there straightner works fine im sure the curling iron will too) and they have great sprays too, (to really hold your hair use ';big sexy hair'; awkward name, i know but its in a red boddle, try it!)


if you dont have a marshals around you go to the drug store and by one for 30 bucks =]
i suggest using a curling iron instead of straightning iron
Well first of all, you don't CURL your hair with a flat iron, its not gonna do the job well lol...


Try buying a curling iron. But i know what your talking about though, i'm kinda cheep myself lol... i buy the $20 flat iron and curling iron (hahaha)... but who cares, as long as it does he job.





but to answer your question, i think that any cord is going to tangle. wheather its from a cheep iron or expensive one.


One tip i would give you is that before you start curling or straightning your hair, use the right device. If its curly hair you want then use a curling iron, if you want straight hair then use a flat iron. Before you start curling or straightening your hair, spray a little hair oil/hair spray in it, then blow it out with a blow dry and brush (to get that soft shinny look), then use which ever iron u are planning to use. Spray hair oil in your hair for a finishing look, and you'll be good to go.





If your black and have nappy hair like me, then girl just get a perm and use some good ol' weave or get a wash N set lol
