When my hair was shorter, I used the Caruso hairsetter all of the time. I washed my hair everyother day or so, and the curls would hold until I washed it again. I have fine (but a lot) hair, straight, slightly oily hair. My hair is also easy to curl.

Amy,I purchased the Caruso rollers "system" when it first came out some years ago. Hopefully, they have since improved it, but I have to tell you that after using it a couple of times, it ended up buried in my closet and last year I gave it away to a neighbor who took it off my hands when I was getting rid of some things. Needless to say, I was disappointed in the Caruso product and for the same reasons you are. I remember trying lots of hair spray to try to have the curl hold, but it wouldn't after about an hour. I ended up regretting that I had parted with my money for it in the first place, but that's just my story.I don't curl my hair anymore--I have a layered cut right now, but I can tell you that I do use that Textureline Gel that Silvie has recommended to you and it is great stuff! In my case it helps to keep my layers in place without getting a sticky, tacky kind of hold. You should try it, maybe it will help with curling your hair. Good luck.

Hihave you tried using a styling gel on your hair before you roll? this should help the hair retin the curl. i dont think you'd even need a heavy-duty gel, just something that will give your curls a little more staying power. i like the textureline gel for a good, non-sticky hold.:) silvie

Hi,I have long (mid back), straight, fine, hard-to-hold-a-curl hair. I bought the Caruso rollers and after 5 minutes the curls look great but after an hour the curls are gone! I have left the curlers on the steamer for over 10 seconds and in my hair for over 30 minutes! I read the Rollers 101 article but I've been there, done that. Anyone out there had success with these? What am I doing wrong?
