Hello Everyone, I would like to start wearing roller sets for a while. My hair is slightly course and I am trying to thicken it back up. Can anyone suggest any leave in's, mousse or something that I can take with me to the salon to use on my hair to make the hair soft and the curls loose and bouncy. I don't want my hair to tangle up after 3 days of having a roller set. Help please. Thanks, BBD  ------------- Blackbarbiedoll |

Visit Macherieamour's blog, healthytextures.com, she is one of the best rollersetting resources. Godsflowerr has a fotki, and I think she posts her regimen/products. She, too, is a great resource for rollersetting. I recently started rollersetting. I initially started with Lottabody Setting Lotion (dilute with water). For me, the Lottabody made my hair dry and crunchy. Then I tried Infusium 23, which turned out much better, but it still has the potential to make hair crunchy, if you use too much. I recently used Motions CPR Triple Moisture Leave-In. At first I mixed it with the Infusium 23. But using a little Motions by itself, has given me the best result... For me, just a little bit is best and then I use plain water in a spritz bottle to keep the hair wet and I go. In the later weeks of my perm, I add a little bit of anti-frizz serum, such as John Frieda or Fantasia. Some other women use foams...so be sure to check out those other more experienced resources I mentioned previously. Let us know how it goes. Good luck. ------------- journal: www.fotki.com/ladyesquire email: ladyesquirehair@yahoo |
