Hairstyling apparatuses and related methods

A hairstyling apparatus comprising:

• a barrel defining a hairstyling surface and a central longitudinal axis, wherein the barrel has a first proximal end and a second distal end;
• a heating element in thermal communication with the barrel;
• and
• a rotating member located at the proximal end of the barrel and configured to rotate around the central axis of the barrel, the rotating member comprising a tab extending along a longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface over at least a portion of a longitudinally extending portion of the hairstyling surface;
• wherein the rotating member further comprises one or more protruding members extending along a longitudinal length of the hairstyling surface;
• wherein at least one of the protruding members is shorter in length than the tab.
