on 12/15/2006 Hot Rollers:

hot rollers can achieve a full head of flawless curls, typically in under an hour. Hot rollers generally have a small amount of wax inside that is heated when the set is plugged into an electrical outlet. When the curlers are ready for use, the color may change color so that you know to begin applying them.

Forget about fighting with the curling iron and trying to decide which way you want the curl to spiral. Instead, enjoy the remarkably easy process with hot rollers-once you have fastened the curlers in your hair, your hair will all curl simultaneously!

It is still a good idea to use some styling products such as a non-sticky hairspray or gel to retain the shape of the curls. (Curls formed by hot rollers tend to last considerably longer for me than those I create with a curling iron, as my hair is typically resistant to curling in general.)

Tip for Hot Rollers: Try to wash your hair the night before you want to employ the hot rollers. Sometimes very clean, sleek hair tends to resist curling.

Time Involved: Hot Rollers may take about 10 minutes to warm up and anywhere from 10-20 minutes to apply, and about 15 minutes to set. (Color of curler will revert back to original color to indicate that the curl has set.) Add additional time as necessary for styling your locks if you intend to use barrettes, bobby pins or other adornments and styling products.

on 8/17/2006 To get your curls to last extra long, spray them with hairspray while they're still in the rollers, right before you take the rollers out. Once you have taken the rollers out, spray your hair with another light mist of hairspray.

on 8/8/2006 If you don't have hot rollers, all you need to do is use aluminum foil. To do so; take about a 1" wide and about 6" long piece of aluminum foil and twist it so it looks like a stick. Then all you have to do is roll your hair on it and twist both ends of the foil together. Leave on overnight or at least 2 hours. Make sure you put hair spray on your hair while the foil is in place.

-Two hard plastic bowls, one slightly larger than the other one
-electrical tape

Put small holes evenly distributed along the smaller bowl. On the larger bowl, make a big enough hole so that your blow dryer tip can fit. Put the smaller bowl on the inside of the larger one. Tape the ends together so there is a separation between the two bowls. Put the hair dryer tip on the bigger hole, tape it. And dry your hair.I figured this one out just now.

on 6/30/2006 To hold curls better, use a pump spray bottle about 3/4 full. Fill up the rest with any kind of beer, and that will hold the curls longer! It will work!

on 3/28/2006 Before you start to curl your hair, you want to straighten it with a straightening iron. After you do that, you get a 1/2 or 1 inch section of hair and you put hair spray on it and, using the curling iron, you roll it up and let it sit there for a while. This method holds your curls much better.

on 11/22/2005 Wrap the ends of each hair section with a slightly moistened end paper before rolling with hot roller. The tissue paper protects hair ends and the moisture gives a much firmer curl.

on 11/22/2005 Make sure your hair is squeaky clean and very dry before rolling, or your curls won't hold well.

on 11/22/2005 I wash my hair and then apply 4+4 volumizing mousse from the roots to the tips, and then I blow dry my hair (and If I have time), divide it into two or three sections then I spray each section with a volumizing hair spray.
For an even better curl you can spray each piece before you roll it on to the hot roller. It has worked very well for me and I hope it works for you! Remember to let the curlers completely cool before removing!

on 11/22/2005 We all no how much time it takes to blow dry your hair and then straighten it, especially if you have wavy hair. Now there is this new straightener called Wet 2 Straight. Aussie Sprunch spray is used to make your hair wavy, but it is like an extra strong hair spray. Spray it onto a hair brush, and then brush your hair. It really helps with reducing the frizzies.

on 11/22/2005 To give your curls a nice greasy look, you need to apply curd to your hair before washing it. Leave it on for 20 minutes, then wash it off and then proceed with the curling process.

on 11/22/2005 Hair must be dried to straighten it with a flat iron. For long, thick, wavy hair like mine, I blow dry my hair with a comb extension. These dryers can be bought at local drugstores or hair shops. This dries the hair quicker and straightens the top layer for you!

on 11/22/2005 Before you roll your hair, fold the paper in half and spray with a water bottle, then roll. Your hair will have smooth ends. The hot curlers will dry the wet ends and the curl lasts.
