My eighth grade graduation is tonight. we have to wear a cap and gown, so there’s no need for me to get my hair done. Because i’m going to have a graduation cap on, i want a simple hairstyle that won’t look crazy. I definitely want to curl my hair, but i’m kinda new at curling my hair and stuff. I don’t want tight spiral curls. I just want loose curls that will look pretty underneath my cap. My hair is dirty blonde and it’s around shoulder length. It is pin straight and thin. Do you have all the steps that i could do to get my hair to have loose curls? I’m not sure if i should use my curling iron because it is a spiral iron and i feel like it might not be able to create loose curls. I also have a straightener and i heard u can use that to curl ur hair.
This is the curling iron i have:

This is the straightener i have:http://images.shopping.indiatimes.com/images/product/101623_revlon962strtnr_pbilimage1.jpg
So, to restate my question, which one (the curling iron or straightener) would be b est to create loose curls for my graduation and can u include steps on how to do it 
thanks so much!
