Abstract
A hair-curling appliance has a first end and a second end that is rotatably connected to the first end. When the operator moves the hair-curling appliance downward, the first end of the appliance held by an end of an operator is turned to curl the hair of another person, and the second end of the appliance held by the other hand of the operator is not turned during the downward travel of the appliance, thereby keeping a longitudinal axis of the appliance parallel to a horizontal axis and thus preventing deviation of the appliance. A satisfactory hair-curling result is thus obtained.
