What type of balloons are best to making balloon animals?
A. There are many types of balloons and name brands out there that you can purchase. However, as a professional balloon twister you really want to stay away from the cheap balloons that you would normally find at the supermarket or childrens store. You want to find yourself a good balloon twisting supplies store where you can purchase high quality balloons at wholesale value. The most common balloons you can buy are the 260 and the 160. The 260 is 2 inches in diameter and 60 inches in length while the 160 is 1 inch in diameter and 60 in length. These come in all colors and designs and are the must have balloons of all professional twisters. As for name brands, you want to stick to Qualatex and Betallic for they are the most popular and durable balloons in the market today. They have been used by balloon twisting artists for decades and are continually expanding their varieties.
