BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium 1.25" Extended Barrel Curling Iron — 8" XL Barrel, 5 Digital Heat Settings

The BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium 1.25" Extended Barrel Curling Iron is an 8" extra-long styling wand built to create soft, natural curls and waves quickly on medium to long hair.

This professional-grade curling iron pairs an extra-long, ultra-lightweight Nano Titanium barrel with five digital heat settings and fast heat-up for efficient, salon-style results. The XL 8" barrel is specifically designed to wrap larger sections of hair, speeding up styling while producing smooth, shiny results across fine, thick, color-treated, or textured hair. Built-in conveniences like a cool-touch tip, a 9-foot 360° swivel cord, and dual-voltage compatibility make it equally suited for at-home styling and travel.

How does the extended 8-inch barrel change styling for longer hair?

The longer barrel lets you wrap bigger sections of long hair at once, reducing styling time and helping create softer, more relaxed curls and waves. Its 1.25" diameter strikes a balance between defined curl and loose wave, ideal for modern, natural-looking volume.

• 8" barrel accommodates longer lengths without repeatedly re-wrapping strands
• 1.25" width produces medium-sized curls and beachy waves
• Wraps larger sections for faster styling sessions

What heat controls and technology does this tool use?

The iron uses Nano Titanium heating for consistent, even heat and smooth glide, helping reduce frizz and boost shine. Five digital temperature settings ramp up to 430°F, giving precise control for different hair textures and styling goals.

• Nano Titanium surface for uniform heat distribution and glossy finish
• Five digital temperature settings up to 430°F for customization
• Fast heat-up for quick styling and consistent results

Is the curling iron comfortable and safe to use for extended sessions?

Yes — the tool is engineered with user comfort in mind: it’s lightweight for reduced arm fatigue and features a cool-touch tip for safe finger placement. The 9-foot 360° swivel cord keeps movements tangle-free, while dual voltage support makes it suitable for travel.

• Lightweight construction minimizes wrist and arm strain
• Cool-touch tip provides a safe grip point while styling
• 9-foot 360° swivel cord prevents tangling during use
• Dual voltage for international travel convenience

What results can I expect and how should I prep my hair?

Expect smooth, long-lasting curls or loose waves with a polished, shiny finish when used correctly. For best results, start with clean, dry hair and apply a heat protectant; finish with a light-hold spray to extend wear without stiffness.

• Smooth, frizz-reduced curls with added shine from Nano Titanium heat
• Works on fine to coarse hair when paired with appropriate temperature settings
• Use heat protectant and styling spray for improved hold and longevity
