Curling my hair with a curling iron pleaseeeeee help!!?

so i recently bought the 1″ hot tools curling iron and i watched a lot of videos on youtube on how to curl your hair but all the girls start off with pin straight hair .. do they straighten their hair prior or do they blow dry it or do they just have naturally straight hair? i have wavy, frizzy, poofy hair .. i have really really stubborn kinks at the top of my head but then they straighten out at the bottom .. should i straighten my hair before curling it with a curling iron or blow dry or what? also what products should i use .. another thing is that my curls ALWAYS fall out .. if i use a flat iron or curling iron .. i have THICK hair .. what should i do pleaseee help
thank you (:

try it both ways. for me since i have really thick hair. i wash and blow dry it then take pieces of my hair and curl it until the whole head is done. my hairs curly and thick and sounds like yours so i think it gives it much more volume. but straightened hair might work best for you
id just experiment
