I have thin hair but want to create loose curls, should i buy a medium or large barrel curling tong?

I would suggest neither. I personally use all sizes of curling irons but I would say purchase rollers (curlers). I have always used Conair and love it. First use a shine serum (like John Frieda Frizzease/Shine Serum) and a heat protectant. Put it on a medium-high heat setting and roll the curls in the hair. Finish off with a light or heavy hairspray depending on your hair type (as you say thin you may need a heavy duty hair spray).





You can either get rollers with multiple sizes or one big size. This is a good one: http://www.conair.com/infiniti-conair-to鈥?/a>|||For loose curls (my hair is thin too dammit) layer your hair for thickness, and either scrunch it with moose when loose and sprotz with a smoothing serum or curl trendils around your fingers when blowdrying! It makes thin hair look natural, touseled and really hot lol. Also stops it dying quicker on tongs! besides tongs take forever|||depends on your hair length also...if its shorter stick to the med sized one. the larger isn't really any good if you can even wrap you hair around it :)





if the curls end up looking too strong like ringlets, just run your hand through them and add some curl defining moose rather than hairspray.|||i would use small tongs because if you hair is thin this will create more curls and give the effects of thicker hair|||Medium|||get a ghd. u can do anything! costs a bit more, but WOW u'll love it i promise ;p
