How to Set Hair in Remington Rollers

Remington rollers are not just your grandmother's styling tool anymore. They are a great way to add soft waves, intense curl or volume. The beauty of Remington rollers is that you won't be needing any additional clips (unless, of course, you want additional clips) and the hot rollers make the process quick and easy. With a set of rollers and a setting spray, you'll be on your way to voluminous hair in less than an hour and most of that time you'll spend relaxing while you wait for the curls to set.

Things You'll Need

• Remington hot rollers
• Setting spray or hair spray
• Comb
• Hair clips
• Shine spray

Instructions

1. Let the rollers heat for approximately 15 minutes.

2. Separate a section of hair from the top of your head that is approximately as wide as the roller. The roller will come loose if you grab too much hair so be careful with how thick the sections are.

3. Spray the section of hair with a setting spray of a light hair spray; paying extra attention to the roots. Brush through the hair immediately after spraying to ensure that product is evenly distributed.

4. Wrap the ends of the hair under the roller. If you roll up, rather than under, the ends of your hair will stick out and create a rather unrefined look. Wrap all the way up to the roots and secure with the Remington pin. If you feel that your hair is too thick for the pins, you can use larger plastic hair clips. You can use the end of a comb to keep your hair in place as your roll the roller; gently slide it out once the roller has been secured.

5. Repeat this process until all the hair has been set in rollers. Make sure you wrap the hair around the roller in the same direction each time. If your curls are in all different directions they are likely to look very unnatural. Once hair is completely cool to the touch, spray lightly with setting spray or hair spray and let the rollers set for an additional 10 minutes. Remove clips carefully and brush through hair gently with your fingertips. Feel free to spray again with hair spray as you see fit.

Tips & Warnings

• During the rolling process, if you find the sides of your sections are loose, move the roller from side to side and roll up to increase tension. Using a shine spray once your hair is styled is a great way to finish off the look. However, be sure to use it sparingly as some sprays can be very greasy, which can weigh the hair down.
