Looking for a good curling iron

[miss604si]

I need some recommendations on a good curling iron to buy. I have really straight and silky hair and my hair doesn't curl well. It takes me about 2 hours to curl my hair and by the time I'm done, the bottom layer is already coming apart. I have a cordless one that works great but the barrel is much smaller than I would like.

I want one with a barrel that is about 1" - 1 1/2". Any suggestions???

helen of troy aka hot tools

their products can be found at local salons (and even sometimes at zellers) but they overprice it way overboard. at a local salon i saw one for $100+, but if you don't mind driving down to bellingham you can get one for like..$30. sallys carry a lot of their products.
