How is this size for fine, thin, short hair

I have baby fine hair and need the lift of a larger barrel and used the Belson 1" for years. My Belson just blew up and it's been discontinued so I just received this Conair 1 1/4" brush curling iron in the mail this morning so just used it and it's great. The larger Belson is no longer available but this is perfect and heats up very quickly. I love it!

can you touch the bristles without getting burned?

the bristles are not hot, the metal strips between the bristles is what gets hot. you can wrap your hand around the bristles and not get burned, but be careful not to push your finger tips through the bristles and touch the metal strip, it will burn.

I have a short Bob..will this work to add body and height?

I have short layered hair that I am growing out into a short bob. While I cannot guarantee your results, it does add body and height without the over curling of a regular curling iron. I got the 1 1/4 inch size so that it would be larger to add body without curl. Obviously some well-placed mousse or styling gell (directly on the roots) helps as does drying hair with your head upside down and then using this styling wand to, ironically, calm it down into the shape you want after. I hope this helps you.

I don't think it is intended to straighten the hair. What it does do is it smooth's out curly hair. So you are left with a soft, gentle curl.
