I use a vidal sasson one I bought at walmart for like $15. It works great! The waves can be as big or small as you like, depending on how much hair you crimp at a time.

Does anyone have any pics of the outcome of using one of these? I've always wanted to try them. I use my hair straightener religiously and sometimes curling tongs but I can never get wavy hair right...

I have one that I bought at Walmart for only 10 dollars! I LOVE It. It's this one:
Amazon.com: Revlon RV084 3-Barrel Jumbo Waver with Ceramic: Health & Personal Care
I have stick straight lonnggg fine hair and this is wonderful. I don't know how wavy you want yours but I tried a smaller one and it took forever to just do my bottom layers. This is what the outcome of my hair looks like when I use my large one:
That was me using it for the very first time. It takes awhile to get the hang of it.

ooh wow yours looks very nice! Did you use product before you did that? Mine works pretty well but I'm always too lazy to do it fully underneath.

Hmm. I'm pretty sure I sprayed it before hand with some hairspray. Yeah, doing my longest layers sucks cause it takes the longest, but it's so straight that if I didn't it would look really odd with the top being wavy and the bottom being stick straight! haha!
BTW, that was me using it really quick after I got it, the longer I take to do my hair with it the better it looks.

Hey thanks, that looks awesome! I think I might pick myself up some of these. I have the same hair, loooong and fine. I love it straight most days, but I'm happy to try different looks.

I bought one of those Enzo Milano curling irons that is just the barrel no clamp part. It comes with a teflon glove (which I don't use) because you just twist your hair around the tube & it creates the prettiest softest wave curl. Its what they use on the movie stars' hair. mine is the 13mm with the pink handle. I bought mine on ebay for $35 from the wholesaler of the product. 100% authentic. My beautician paid $100 for hers ?

I just take a strand of hair and start at the root. I clamp it down and hold it for a few seconds then I move it on down, but I overlap my waves. Like theres 3 barrels so when I move it down I put the top barrell in the middle of the wave I just did. Does that makes sense? It's kinda strange to explain lol.
and thanks!
