Getting curls at home used to mean sleeping in rollers or spending an hour at the salon. Not anymore. A curling tong or curling wand gives you salon-style curls in 15–20 minutes. At Fancy Beauty, we carry two solid options: the Professional Hair Curling Tong at BDT 2,000 for traditional barrel curls, and the Twist Secret Starter Kit at BDT 1,200 for a different approach to creating curls without the clamp. Both tools work on most hair types and produce beautiful, bouncy results when used correctly. Whether you're going for tight ringlets, loose romantic curls, or soft beach waves, this page covers what you need to know before buying.

Same rule as with straighteners:
Hold time on the barrel also affects curl tightness: shorter hold = softer curl, longer hold = tighter curl.

Q1: What curling tools are available at Fancy Beauty Bangladesh? We carry the Professional Hair Curling Tong at BDT 2,000 and the Twist Secret Starter Kit at BDT 1,200.
Q2: What is the Twist Secret and how does it work? Twist Secret is an automatic curling tool — you insert a section of hair, press a button, and the device rotates the hair around the barrel automatically to create a curl. It's designed to be easier to use than a traditional clamp tong, especially for beginners.
Q3: Can I use a curling tong on straight hair? Yes. Curling tongs work on all hair types. Straight hair may need a stronger hold product (mousse or strong-hold spray) to help curls last longer, especially in Bangladesh's humidity.
Q4: What temperature should I use for curling? Use 150–175°C for fine or color-treated hair. 180–200°C for normal hair. 200–220°C for thick or coarse hair. Don't go higher than needed — more heat does not always mean better or longer-lasting curls.
Q5: How do I make curls last longer in Bangladesh's humid weather? Apply a light mousse before curling, work in small sections, let each curl cool in your hand before releasing, and finish with a strong-hold hairspray. Avoid touching or running your fingers through curls until they've fully cooled.
Q6: Can I use a curling tong on short hair? It depends on the barrel size and hair length. The Professional Curling Tong works best on shoulder-length or longer hair. For shorter hair, a smaller wand or different technique is needed. The Twist Secret Starter Kit generally requires medium to long hair.
Q7: Is the Professional Curling Tong good for everyday use? Yes, with proper heat protectant use. For everyday curling, keep heat at the lower end of your hair type's range and limit to 1–2 passes per section to minimize cumulative damage.
Q8: Do curling tongs work on very thick Bangladeshi hair? Yes. You'll need a higher heat setting (200–220°C), smaller sections, and slightly longer hold time (12–15 seconds). Allow more total time for a full head compared to fine hair.
Q9: Do you deliver curling tools outside Dhaka? Yes. All curling products are available for delivery across Bangladesh.
Q10: How do I clean a curling tong? Let the barrel cool completely. Wipe with a slightly damp cloth to remove product buildup. For stubborn residue, use a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad. Never clean while hot.
