idk what it is. it's got two flat metal plates that get hot. and u put ur hair through it ...
Curling iron or hair straightener are the two terms I know for those things.
Aren't those two different pieces of equipment? (Or at least two different parts you swap in a very basic piece of equipment?)
Those are two completely opposite changes, and the format the iron would have to have for each seems completely incompatible.
They are different tools, but fun fact, you can make curls or waves with a straightener depending on technique. A curling iron will only do curls.
