Best Answer

different fabrics need different amounts of heat. thinner fabrics tend to be more delicate, so a higher heat setting would damage them, wheras heavier fabrics need more heat to smooth wrinkles effectively. if you have an iron with steaming capabilities, settings can adjust whether or not (and how much) the steam is on.

Can you iron nylon?

My Black & Decker Sure Steam iron has a chart on it with suggested settings for different fabrics, and it has a setting for nylon (the second to lowest setting) and suggests not using steam, just a dry iron.

Where can I compare different brands of curling irons?

When selecting a curling iron you need to consider many factors including your hair type and desired curl size. Curling irons come in many different heat settings and sizes. I would suggest a non-professional iron (since they typically have a non-spring loaded clamp and are hard to master).
