Dyson relaunched their famous AirWrap styler with newer (and fancier) tech. The current version comes with over six different attachments for straightening, smoothing, blow-drying, waving and curling. When it comes to the curling function, the AirWrap uses the Coanda effect to attract damp hair to the barrel, drying it into a loose ringlet. Press the ‘+/-’ button to select the suitable heat setting for your hair type. The indicator light will flash until the selected temperature has been reached. Once the temperature has been reached, the indicator light will remain solid in colour. Temperature: There are two heat settings of 210°C and 230°C, and three timer settings which hold the hair in the curl chamber for different amounts of time, meaning you can tailor the settings to your hair type. Temperature:There are nine temperature settings to choose from, ranging between 130°C up to 210°C. Or you can opt to use the wand's clever built in Intelligent StyleAdapt Technology, which learns about your hair and styling technique, and then automatically adjusts the barrel temperature, personalising it to you.

Temperature: Dyson's genius heat control measures airflow temperature over 40 times a second, to ensure it stays under 150°C to prevent serious heat damage.It takes a little while to get the hang of this styler, but once you do, it delivers b-e-a-u-tiful waves. You have to take a 1-2 inch wide section of hair and pass it through the plates to begin, then you press a button and the barrel begins to rotate. As it turns, the strand of hair is pulled through the plates and twisted, creating a soft curl. Essentially, it curls hair in the same way as you can with straighteners, but the rotating barrel makes it easy for the clumsy of us to cheat smooth, well-rounded waves. Start winding the hair around the top part of the barrel closest to the handle. Keep winding the hair down the length of the barrel until there is no more hair to wrap around.

It's a 32mm width, so if you want loose yet polished-looking curls, it's worth investing in. Yes, it's expensive, but this curling tong has been designed with the 'user experience' in mind. It has a cool-touch tip so you can avoid burning those fingers, a super-long cord, and it automatically switches itself off if left unattended for 30mins or more - so you don't get that ' did I leave my tongs on?' fear, every morning on the way to work.

The flat iron bar creates cool S-shaped waves, as opposed to round ringlets. Whilst the ceramic coating ensures hair cuticles remain smooth and frizz-free. Temperature: The dial ranges from 50 to 198°C, allowing it to give either a loose or defined pleat to the hair.Take a section of hair, starting 2 inches from the scalp and place the appliance next to the hair section, ensuring the end of the appliance is pointing down towards the shoulder. Ensure the hair is dry and combed through to remove any tangles. Divide the hair into sections ready for styling.

The tapered barrel of this wand goes from 28mm to 23mm, meaning you get a looser voluminous curl at the top of your hair, and tighter, defined curls toward the ends. Similarly to the first ghd tong, the barrel has a ceramic coating, so hair stays smooth and frizz-free. Waves look clean and defined after curling, but you can opt for a dishevelled finish by running your fingers through the lengths and giving strands a blast with some texture spray. It also has a cool tip to help avoid burnt fingers and a 30 minute automatic off-switch for peace of mind. What I LOVED about this curling wand (other than the flawless-looking wave it gave my hair), is the slightly grainy textured barrel. It grips onto hair, preventing strands from slipping down and ensuring an even, perfect-looking curl. When did finding the best curling wand get so damn confusing? There are countless styles of tongs out there and they all give different curls; from tightly defined ringlets to loose beachy waves. But how do you know which shape wand will work for you? This has three interchangeable wands that can be attached to the base, a tapered cone, a large barrel, and a medium-sized barrel (that I used for the picture). It gave my hair soft, fluffy waves that could be styled with a spritz of sea salt spray for a beachy effect, or brushed out, to create old-school hollywood waves. Staying power: The 1-inch barrel has incredible staying power, just add a touch of hairspray and your waves should be in tact till your next wash.Well, I've tried to take some of the mystery out of curler shopping, by showing you exactly what each style of tong/wand/styler does to the hair (or my hair, to be more precise). Because I don't know about you, but when it comes to beauty I want need visuals. I want to see if the results are worth dropping all that hard earned cash on. Temperature: The clever wand has an adjustable temperature of 80-220°C, so can be dialled up or down to suit your hair type. Temperature: Whilst the wand gives a dreamy wave, you don't get any fancy thrills. There's an on/off switch to activate the heat, but no temperature dial, so you get what you're given when it comes to heat.
