Answer:

this info should be on the plate on the inside of one of the door/sits a tare ratingI havent a clue what it would weight but thats should help.

I use Kenra thermal styling spray and some major mousse while its wetDry itAnd then try getting a ceramic and ionic curling ironTrust me I know I've got super thick hairIt took me a awhile to learn how to do it correctlyWhen your curling it sometimes you gotta hold it on there for a long timeMake sure all the hair isn't like compounded on itself try spreading it through out the curling iron so it's closer to the heatThen major hairsprayI use max hold Beyond the ZoneIt works real well.
