"Hi! This is Liz Muller from Liz’s Hair Design in Hollywood, Florida and now I am going to show you a different kind of hairstyle, roller set. That is done for kind of wavy, curly hair and sometimes you have seen Halle Berry wear this. Her hair is kind of like wavy and curly at the same time and the way you set this hair is actually by taking, first of all I am sorry about that, but you would also use a styling agent that has some kind of foam or body to style the hair and to keep the set in. You need this to keep the set really, really tight and neat. You are going to proceed to take piece of hair again; and you are going to take a small section like this, putting the roller close to the scalp, placing a pin like this here, placing another pin like this here; you are going to take that hair again and you are going to take another roller now and it is called piggy back. This is called a piggy back roller set and that is going to create that wave. Those two rollers like that are going to create a wave to the hair and that will style like this wavy look. Now you are going to take the end of this hair here and you are going to kind of clamp that up like that and it should look like this, like a little pyramid, piggyback. "
