hi Anais! hmm, well, they're rollers too but not heated ones.. i hear they're much more effective than heated rollers though. after u wash ur hair, u need to either wait for a day for ur hair to replenish its natural oils or u can supply it with styling oils right after u shower. while the hair is wet u roll it onto those hairsetters and wait until hair has completely dried before removing them. and voila! u have long-lasting curls/waves... i've heard good stuff about a brand called caruso that makes steam hairsetters, but i'm not sure how one would use them
but no, i don't think this would work with my hair.. this hair is a bit softer than mine, and much less wavy... if i had hair like that i would not be complaining!! i need heat of some sort to reach such results, especially towards the scalp.
thanks so much for sharing though, much appreciated
hello! i'm new here, and boy am i glad to have found this forum! i've been going crazy recently over changing my hair style.
my natural hair type is somewhat coarse/resistant, small waves but not really curly, medeterranian (terrible spelling, i know), long, black... i've been using a straightening iron for about 2 years and now would like to switch to a more lively style.
i used a 2" remington curling iron for about 2 weeks to get soft/loose curls (or waves) and loved it... but alas, it wasn't strong enough and burned out just the other night!! it takes me about 2-3 hrs to curl my hair, so it's honestly not the iron's fault.
i'm now investigating on rollers... i'm not sure if they're suitable for my hair type though.. i hear that curling irons are much stronger. any opinions on whether rollers would work with me? if so, which kind of rollers do i need to look for?
if rollers aren't for my hair type, can anyone reccomend a heavy-duty curling iron?
