Finding the perfect curling iron is a lot harder than what you may think. From the different shapes, sizes and style it takes experimentation and trial and error to find your go to hair tool.
The Amika 4 Piece Interchangeable Barrel Curler Set has four clip-free barrels that vary in size. The sizes are 0.70-1 inch, 0.75 inch, 1 inch, and 1.25 inch. It also includes a heat resistant glove that helps prevent burning yourself when you are curling your hair.
What I like about the Amika set is that it’s not like the traditional curling irons and I find it easier and faster to curl your hair with a wand. The barrels are ceramic and tourmaline. Tourmaline is a natural source of negative ions and infrared heat that makes it quicker and safer to curl your hair.
Another positive to the negative ions is that it takes away the frizz from your hair and gives it a silky smooth look. I love how fast the iron heats up and remains constant so there is consistency with each curl.
My personal favorite is the biggest barrel. I have long thick hair and I prefer the loose curls and I feel like with this wand it’s easily attainable. It gives it a natural wave and it’s a lot faster to finish my hair with the wider barrel.
The Amika: 4 Piece Interchangeable Barrel Curler Set sells for $175 at Sephora.com. It’s worth every penny because it has four barrels you can play that will give you a variety of ways to curl your hair.
