A few of different exercise for the biceps, not commonly used:

Standing BB curl, where as you curl the bar up you also begin bending from the waist about a quarter of the way down. The idea is to touch the forehead with the bar and cramp the biceps them selfs for a second. Than lower to the starting position of the curl, raising the upper body to a standing position again. Lot of intense focus on the biceps this way. Could us a EZ bar, buit most use a straigh bar.

One arm curl, gripping a Olympic bar directly in the middle. Requires balance, calling upon muscle fibers, from the forearms to the biceps, not normally used in regular curling. Whole different feel to this exercise, biceps undergo steady focus. Can use a regular exercise bar, but suggest the Olympic bar for it's longer length.

DB Concentration curl..old school.  Putting the whole focus on the mind as you complete a full ROM slower than usual. Bracing the elbow on the insides of the leg, assuring that the biceps do the actual work. A lighte weigh is used, with strict performance...no heaving or jerking allowed.

Good Luck.
