I use Conair Ion Shine. It's a blue/grey unit with velvet rollers in 3 sizes. The rollers get nice and hot and I roll up my whole head at one time using all of them. By the time makeup is done and coffee is enjoyed, they're cooled down and ready to come out. Support the curl as you unroll and allow hair to cool entirely before styling the rest of the way. A gentle fingercomb and a spritz of holding spray and voila!

I second the Conair blue/grey velvet rollers, 40 bucks at the drugstore or Walmart and they can not be beat!  I highly suggest buying the bigger clips from Sally's, the white claw looking things.  There are 10 in a box for 2.99 and it makes it easier with very long hair.  I'm not a fan on the smaller blue clips that come with it.

ya, I try using the curling iron with my bohyme, straight extensions and the curl doesn't last.  I even let the curl cool and about an hour later the curl is all gone!  Maybe I should try the rollers... hopefully I have enough fingers to put all the hair in rollers hahaha

I use a 3/4 inch curling iron with Bohyme and the curls last all day. Try sliding the curl off the iron without letting it uncurl and clip it and let it cool. It that doesnt work try a smaller barrel. I usually only need to let the curls cools about 15-20 minutes tops.

do you guys find that you loose the curl if its damp or humid out? I curled my hair the other day, and an hour later it was gone, but it was quite damp out... then it ends up looking yucky
