Anyone know? 

I was thinking about the 50mm wave but my hair is super straight and that's how I wear it almost everyday.

If the straight will curl, I was thinking about getting that and using steam rollers to curl it occasionally.

Any opinions?

hey girl -

the straight PH should curl with velvet-covered hot rollers or steam rollers. i found the trick to be letting the hair completely cool on the roller (ie not removing when even slightly warm) before removing the roller. you can also utilize steam, if you have a garment steamer, to braid the straight, steam it, let the hair cool, and then unbraid. makes a nice loose wave.

my caution would be - boy i thought i had stick straight hair and .. wound up having to flat iron my own hair to get a good blend. unless your hair is stick stick straight without any body i would say go with the 50mm..as the wave comes out after a few washes anyway and leaves a silght wave.

I found with the straight PH it didn't hold the curl as well as the 50mm one, I also used heated velvet covered rollers. Oh and i found it really tangly whenever i did try to curl it
