20 Best Curling Iron For Wavy Hair (2023 Updated)

I have color-treated hair. Color and highlights. I also have very long, fine hair (lands mid-back). It usually holds a curl for a few hours. NOT with the T3 curling iron, though. This is quite possibly the absolute WORST curling iron I have EVER used.

It did not hold curl for more than 5 minutes, which is really saying something because I purchased my T3 curling iron SET for nearly $350. Like other reviewers, my hair smelled completely burned for several days after using this.

I have been curling my hair a long time (20+ years now) and I am not a hair novice. I am so disappointed I am leaving a negative review to hopefully warn others. My daughter’s $30 drugstore curling wand did a 2000% better job than this overpriced tool.

Not to mention the fact that this thing appears to have burned/damaged my hair beyond repair. even with heat-protection styling products. I have never had this happen before and no, it wasn’t user error.

One of my good friends is also a hair stylist and she agreed that the T3 set I have is total garbage. Money wasted. Buyer beware!.

I wish I had a better idea of which type of attachment to buy. I finally broke down and bought a T3 convertible base and this attachment after reading how much everyone that has one loves it. I have an old BabyLiss tapered barrel curling iron with a tiny clip to hold the ends that I love but it’s over 20 years old and I recently noticed that the cord is busted open and the wires are exposed and some are broken from years of use.

It still works but I know it’s only a matter of time. Unfortunately trying to get information from the T3 website was zero help. They should show photos of what type of curl is achieved from each attachment.

I bought this one and basically it just curls my ends. I really struggle with the curling wands but I’m going to have to learn how to use them. I have extra long hair so if you do too and are looking for a curler that gives you that body wave look skip this attachment.

It heats up rapidly just like it claims and it stays the same temperature. It smooths the hair cuticle beautifully. I think I just need to exchange for a smaller barrel.

I’m so shocked to see negative reviews on here! I’ve had this clip barrel 3 years and it’s still going strong! My hair grows extremely fast so I’ve used this on a wide range of lengths – from shoulder to lower back, and it does a fantastic job.

My hair is naturally wavy and thick, and I used to have to straighten my hair first if I wanted to curl it. With this curling iron, I can go directly from air dried to curls! I use it on the 3rd setting and would recommend avoiding the 4th and 5th even if you usually go for the highest setting on other tools.

Always use a heat protectant as well. I love Bumble and Bumble’s heat/uv protective primer. I normally don’t make the effort to use hair spray, and my curls stills hold for 2-3 days, though they obviously fall a bit after a few days while still looking very pretty.

It makes my hair very shiny and frizz free. Based on my experience with this barrel, I will be buying the 1 inch clip barrel as well, for tighter curls.

I love the sleek look of this curler and the way it creates beautiful lasting beachy waves. I’ve tried 1. 25in ceramic curling iron and wands, but the curls don’t last. Not sure if it’s due to my thick asian hair? I believe the titanium material helps hold my curls a lot longer.

The tip does get hot, but I hardly use it. The clamp is a little loose and hair does glide easily, but I prefer it to be a little tighter. I also wish it was a longer barrel for longer hair and that there was a temp lock feat.

Overall, so good so far. Loving this curling iron!.

My boyfriend got me this for my birthday. Love the wand. High quality. Works well. Leaves my hair feeling soft and smooth. Curls stay all day. Love that you can adjust the temperature and change out the attachments.

Comes with a glove and a thermal carrying case. Really good deal! I only ever use 2 of the attachments though so it is kind of a waste. Even still, we probably would’ve spent more money buying 2 separate wands than we spent on this set!.

THIS IS AWESOME!!! First of all, the packaging is so gorgeous, it felt like I was opening something fancy. It comes with a glove that you can use to avoid burning your hand with, because the ends of all of the wands are heated as well.

As a person who always tends to burn themselves with any sort of heat tool, why did I never think of buying a glove like this! Inside the black box, there is a pouch which can store all of the wands as well as the main handle.

There are seven curling iron type attachments. The barrels range in size from 3/4 inches (at the largeness of the smaller wand) to 1. 25 inches. This pretty much will take care of all of the curling iron needs.

The Rose Gold and black design is sleek and pretty. The handle is ergonomic in design, and the wand itself has varying heat settings. To insert the barrel into the handle, you just align it with the prongs on the inside (you will see them), push it in, and then turn the piece on the handle to lock it in place.

I have arthritis in my hands and this was not hard. I used this and it heads up very quickly. In addition to the buttons that raise and lower the temp, there is an on/off button. This is very well worth the price.

If someone wanted a curling iron as a gift, I would get them this one, not only because it looks quite expensive, is very sleek and fashionable, but it is very versatile in many ways, and at an excellent price!! I am so glad I got this!!.

Amazing but a little dangerous 😜 my hair would always go flat before I was even done trying to curl my hair. I’m 36 years old and it took me 35 years to find the perfect curling iron! Make sure to use the glove and maybe wear a long sleeve shirt until you get the hang of this bad girl because if you’re used to the iron having the clip to hold your hair, this takes some getting used to and burns like an SOB.

I also turn the heat down to 340 degrees which doesn’t do as much damage if I accidentally hit my skin. My hair looks fabulous now :).

Finally I found something that works and is easy to use! I am a very girly girl but still always have such a hard time curling my hair lol i’ve tried wavers, curling irons, curling wands, I’ve tried using my flat iron like the super talented people and nothing works.

this makes it so easy and it actually does work! my hair is long, thick and kind of dry and frizzy before I smooth it all down with my straightener. I used this and it not only worked but also made my hair soft! I washed my hair and used the chi then went to bed, the next two work days I skipped washing my hair but I did re-curl some spots before I went in and it worked so well.

the one photo is directly after using it on fresh washed hair, the other photo is 2 day old hair just re-curled certain spots. I brought it over and showed my mom and she liked it so much she bought it the same day!.

I was completely underwhelmed by this product. It’s a lot of hype for basically a regular curling iron. And when you use the rotation feature it makes it hard to find the clamp to release. Just feel like it is an over glorified curling iron with half a clamp.

And honestly I would love to return it but every time I have found a product that I don’t like from them it’s a great big hassle to try to get a return done. I swore last time I wouldn’t buy from them ever again but when I saw this curling iron I thought it would be awesome because I do have some limited mobility in my neck.

So I decided to give it a try but was not at all impressed and I know I can’t get my money back. Or should I say most of the time you can’t get ALL your money back. Or if you don’t keep every single part of the way it was packaged when it was delivered to you they won’t even entertain the thought of letting you return it.

So this will be my last purchase from them. I have bought many products over the years and a couple of them I really liked but most of the time I could’ve found something like it at a cheaper price somewhere else.

Sorry Lange. Maybe if your customer service was easier to deal with and I could be guaranteed a full return with NO HASSLE I would stay. But you have lost my business and I hope no one else falls prey to your money back guarantee promise.

Anyone that has middle school or high school girls this new hair tool is a must. Both my girls love it. They are so proud that they can fix their own hair now. This tool is easy to use and produces long lasting curl.

I have never been able to use a straighter or wand to achieve great curl and always went back to my old school curling iron. I was so excited to get this product because I knew I could and would use it.

I have medium length thin natural curly hair, my youngest has long wavey thin hair and my oldest has thick strait hair that refuses to hold curl. This hair tool works for us all. Love it.

I had a Chi Arc for years, which I loved. When it broke, I was unable to find one so I turned to L’ange because I’ve loved all the irons so far. This iron is good, but I can’t give it 5 stars compared to my Chi.

There are 2 things that could be better. My Chi would beep to let you know when to release the hair and this does not. Maybe it’s just something I’m used to but I liked it. The other thing that I’ve noticed with this one is that it’s very easy to accidentally hit the reset button with your finger while you’re trying to twist it.

No one wants their hair going in any weird direction in rotating curling irons, so for me that feature could certainly be improved. However, it does a great job at the end of the day.

My review is for the rock n waver, which is not listed on influenster. See pics. pretty much have zero idea how to use either a curling iron or this wave rod, but I did my best. The rock n waver is beautiful right out of the box, with eye catching and vibrant colors.

It has an on/off switch, and +/- temp controls. Heats up VERY quickly, I was surprised it had heated up before I even got one section of hair clipped up. The glove that comes with it, unfortunately, is pretty much useless.

It does not block heat whatsoever which can make using the rod difficult ad you have to hold the hair versus clamping like a traditional curling iron. I really had no idea what I was doing but it did curl my hair, and playing around with different techniques leads to different types of curls.

With some practice I’m sure I will get better at it. Other than the glove and learning curve, this is an excellent hair tool and I would recommend it to anyone looking to play around with their hairstyle.

I’m not good at doing my hair. I’m quite literally the worst, actually. I got this because I thought it’d help me actually be able to curl my hair. LIFE CHANGING. I can finally curl my hair! And it actually looks freakin amazing!!! I used to have extremely long hair, as shown in the pictures.

I still was able to curl my hair perfectly!.

I absolutely love this spiral wand. For one it doesn’t take long to heat up because us moms don’t have time for that and two it works amazing. You can literally to your whole head within 20 minutes and the curls last all day since it’s ceramic.

Definitely a fun way to switch your hair up especially if you are like me and get bored easy. #.

This is a great product but I can’t seem to get the hang of using it. I keep burning myself in the same spot on my arm, the tip (end) that is very hot hits my arm as Im wrapping a section of hair around barrel.

If there was a piece covering the tip where you could actually touch it I would keep using it. The gloves don’t help me because it’s not my hands that are the problem. I have practiced and just can’t get used to it.

It does create great curls though and I have thick coarse hair.

Not sure how these have such good reviews. I used to have really hard to curl hair but after having kids my hair became naturally wavy and easier to curl. However, with this wand and the 32mm one my hair just would not curl.

It would just leave a little bit of wave and before even heading out the door it goes straight. I’m so very disappointed as I really thought these would create beautiful curls but a cheaper brand works way better.

After much trial and error, I have managed to get some fairly decent results but you really do need to practise a lot and the instructions were not very helpful really. I found one side easier to do than the other and found that turning it upside down on the other side was a good technique to get hair going off the face, rather than on to it.

The tong doesn’t open very much, so if you’ve got thick hair that would definitely be a problem but it’s still a bit annoying even with fine hair. Like some other reviews, I found you get better results on the hottest setting but I am a little worried that it seems very hot and kind of defeats the purpose a bit of having cooler settings.

I have bought several products to try and get good results and this is one of the better ones but still not easy or problem free. A bit noisy with the air on but that’s not a great concern. On balance.

it’s ok.

I have a Babyliss Curl Secret, which I absolutely love, but this gives me fairly tight curls, so I was looking for something that would give me a more modern beachy everyday wave and this tool looked like it would meet my requirements.

I would class myself as fairly proficient in styling my own hair but no matter what I tried any curl/wave I achieved with this tool would fall out within a few minutes. My hair is fine but fairly long, I tried all 3 heat settings, only the hottest would actually create a curl/wave and I have tried several times using no product and various styling products (including my trusty GHD curl spray) with this tool but no matter what I do, they just drop out.

So very disappointed and annoyed that I’m now going to lose ~£8 in postage to return this. Also the heat setting button needs a lock on it, as I kept knocking this accidentally and changing the setting whilst in use.
