Hey Shopaholic! Have you tried setting your hair when it is wet? That's all that will work for me. No gel or hair spray works for me. When I want curly hair, I set it in soft rollers when it's just slightly damp. When it looks dry, but still feels a little damp, that's perfect. If it's too wet, your hair won't dry in the curler and then it'll be too wet to hold a curl. I leave the rollers in for a couple hours, or sleep on them overnight. The curls then last most of the day... maybe 6 or 7 hours? I probably touch them too much. I imagine if I'd keep my hands off, they'd last longer. I recommend Wrap, Snap and Go rollers. They're comfortable and don't tangle or fall out of your hair until you take them out. Best of all, no heat damage!  ------------- "Hair is a part of you.

Hi, Redken Hot Sets works better than anything I have ever tried. I am a product fanatic and I have tried alot. You spray it on before you curl. It works for a wet set or with curling iron/hot rollers Good Luck------------- I am a professional Hairstylist/Haircolorist with 19 years experience.

Really? Hmmm. I might have to try that. But I think my wallet has paid for all the hair products it can handle this month. Too bad I don't think it's included in the Redken sale at Trade Secret. They're not discounting styling products. ------------- "Hair is a part of you. It is not a part of me, because I am a frog." - Kermit the Frog on Sesame Street1b/N/ii ~ ??"/27"/32" |
