Terri was chosen as the winner through Random.org Congrats Terri!
Have you seen the Infiniti by Conair You Curl? It’s a strange looking hair curling device that makes you wonder if they forgot to add a part when making it. If you compare it to a curling iron, it’s missing the clamp and it’s cone shaped instead of the same diameter all around. So yes, at first glance you wonder what the heck it is and assume you can’t curl your hair with it.
Currently, my hair is in the growing out stage and I have too many short layers for this to work properly on my hair. But if it was about 1″ – 2″ longer I would be able to use it. I’d say anywhere from between jaw and shoulder length hair to longer will get the best results. So for testing purposes, I went to the one person whom I know that has long hair – my son’s girlfriend, Kirstyn. Of course, her reaction was initially the same has mine. “Huh? How does that work?” So she gave it a try.
First there is a temperature that needs to be set. You can go to the booklet and it gives you a guide as to your hair type and what to set the temperature at. Then once it’s heated, you start with the largest part of the barrel closest to the scalp. In this photo below it might look like she’s doing it the opposite, but she’s not. The barrel is pointed upward instead of downward like the website shows, but she still has the largest part of the barrel nearest to the scalp.
Then you twist the hair around the barrel.
And twist some more.
And twist even more (long hair has a lot of twisting!) till the end of your hair is wrapped around to the narrowest part of the barrel.
Then her curls looked like this after doing several 1″ sections.
And here she took her fingers and a comb and ran them lightly through her hair. Now obviously she only did the one side for demonstration purposes and to show you the difference it makes in her hair. I think it makes beautiful, soft curls! The next day we went to a wedding and she used this all over her hair for soft, pretty curls. She said her younger sister was watching and intrigued by it as well. I guess everyone has that initial reaction! But, Kirstyn said it is much easier to use than you think and once you get the hang of it it works quickly too.
These retail for $49.99 and are available at various retail stores. To celebrate the re-design of my site, Conair is offering a You Curl to one lucky reader from the US.

I would love to try it out.
I gave away my curling iron when I cut my hair short. My fiance missed my long hair, so guess what…it’s long, well mid length, again, and I could use a curling iron again.
Thanks for the info about Conair!
I would love to win this!
I saw it at Walgreens and wondered about it, too. This curler looks like an improved version of the famous Enzo Milano curling iron.
I have really long hair now and would love to win this.
Her hair looks beautiful. I’d like to try this.
I have curly hair already but would still need to use a tool like this to get those beautiful waves!
I would love this since my hair is so flat! Adriana
I would love to win this…It would cut down on my rollersets, which are very time consuming.
I would love to win so I can do more with my naturally wavy and sometimes frizzy hair. My curling iron is old! Thanks for the great contest and the redesign looks awesome.
Curled hair is my fav! Mine is straight and I don’t want a perm so this is a great alternative without damaging hair.
Looks like a great curling iron and just what I need!
I sure can use one of these.
I have another brand’s curling wand in a smaller wand size, which I think it’s a little bit too small. I would love to try a bigger wand=)
My hair is getting so long I am dreaming of going all Demi/Britany on it. Maybe something like this can save me from the “ponytail ’cause it’s too long to bother to do anything else with it” stage. OR the “OMG did I just shave my head” two year phase!!
I am so klutzy with gadgets and this looks manageable!!!
I’d love to try….
Terri
It looks like you have taken the trophy for the giveaway queen! I love it!
Thanks for my entry…this product looks great and it looks like this “curling iron” won’t give that annoying line accross my hair since it dosen’t have a a clamp/clip!!

This looks like it would take me a bit of time to get used to, HOWEVER…I would LOVE to try it…my hair would be so happy!!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
I am currently growing my hair and its at that inbetween stage and it seems like nothing works but this could be a perfect fit ……i would love to give this new tool a twirl.
I would love to win this. I’m trying to get my hair to have more body and life and I think this will do the trick.
Thanks,
Tammy

enter me, please! 🙂
this is just what i need but does it work for black people hair and short hair
I can’t answer the part about hair for black people, but if you have medium short hair this works. It probably wouldn’t work for short pixie short hair.
