I recently bought my fgirst wand. I decided to share the tips and tricks of buying a wand with you. Take alll of these into consideration when you go wand-shopping.

TALK TO THE WANDSELLER
The witch or wizard who will sell you your wand knows about all thewands in the shop. They will be madami than happy to share their knowledge and help you find the right wand. Don't be a fraid to ask questions, either.

HOLD DIFFERENT WANDS
Holding different wands will help guide you to the best match. Let's say you try an oak wand with a phoenix feather core. The wand might feel close, but not quite right. In that case, you should try a phoenix feather wand of a different wood and an oak wand with a different core.

TRY IT OUT
You'll be casting spells with your wand of course. So, it naturlly follows that you should wave the wand around a bit. It might look silly to a Muggle-born, but it'll help you find the right match.

LOOK OVER THE WAND
If you're sure it's the right wand for you, look it over. Learn its details. Figure out the best way tohold it.

Hopefully, these tips will help you find the wand that chose you. With these tips and a little luck, you and your new wand will be very happy together. I know I am with my 15-inch holly and phoenix feather.
