Easy crimper
Alure Three Barrel Hair Waver/Crimper - 1 Inch
Hot Tip: Make sure your hair is 80% dry BEFORE using this. This is more of a styler than a dryer. You will be working on your hair for days if you go in with this tool with soaking wet hair.

I love a multifunction appliance. :)

My *HOLY GRAIL* curl product. I have very curly hair but it is fine and I need a product that isn't going to weigh my curls down. This is it. My hair isn't crunchy unless I've used too much. Even then, use a little hair oil to break the cast on the e...
