Questions & Answers
The good news is that extra small, medium, and large rollers are available. The bad news (for you, not for me and others who prefer small) is that due to the spacing of the heating pegs, you can replace all of the medium and large spaces with small, but you can't fit more medium and large onto the pegs of the small space.
When I roll with hot rollers, I just use regular hair spray at the end of each section. I spray my hair, comb it through, and roll it. It aids in the initial holding of the hair on the roller, as well as assisting the curl in staying in the hair. (It's similar to a hairstyling gel.) Do you recall DippityDoo? ) This is something I've done for over 40 years. Your comb will accumulate dried hair spay and will need to be washed on a regular basis. It can be relieved by using liquid soap or shampoo and soaking in a basin of warm water. The comb can be cleaned completely with an OLD TOOTH brush.
With the lid down, the curlers will heat up faster.

I've squandered a lot of money on hot rollers, but these are by far the best; I've bought this set three times in the last ten years. It eventually wears out from daily use, and I begin my search for a new one. This is a topic that I always return to. Rollers come in three different sizes: There are eight small, six medium, and six large pieces in this set. I use the small and medium curlers because my hair is very thin and fine. Because I have the curlers from previous sets, I swap out the large curlers for the medium and small curlers. The dimensions have remained constant over time. br>br>These hot rollers aren't perfect, and thick hair may not work as well with them. The rollers heat up quickly, and one of them has a ready-to-use indicator. Leave the rollers in your hair until it's completely cool if your hair is difficult to curl. You'll have a better set on your hands. br>br>The price is reasonable, and it is far superior to the more expensive rollers. The majority of people, I believe, will be satisfied.
This is fantastic! It takes about 15 minutes for the warmer to heat up, but it's a great deal and they work! This is the first time I've ever rolled my hair, so if I can do it, so can you. It makes me happy.
I have short/medium length slightly wavy hair and am new to vintage hairstyling. Since the early 1990s, I've always curled and styled my hair. I bought these to curl my hair quickly when I'm too lazy to set it in foam or pillow rollers the night before. After using these rollers for the first time, I had the following thoughts:br>br>- The year is 1940. Hairstyles from the 1950s: Small and medium rollers are the only ones that should be used. It is best to use sleep-inducing substances. in the rollers The large rollers should never be used. I requested another set from my daughter for Christmas so that I could complete the collection. the. smaller. rollers.
- In the late 1950s Hairstyles from the 1960s include the following. All of the rollers should be utilized. To achieve a smooth, large curl bouffant hair look, use the larger ones around the crown. This is, in my opinion, the era in which these hot rollers shine the brightest. br>- Beyond the 1970s: For large, wavy curls and the "big hair" look, use the medium and large rollers. PROS: br>br> br>My hair did appear smoother and shinier than when I used regular sleep-in conditioner. Curl your hair with curlers or a curling iron. br>While sectioning my hair, I plugged in the unit.

I threw away my other set of Helen of Troy rollers because they had heated clamp clips, which make the rollers extremely heavy and prevent you from rolling all the way to your head. THESE OLD-FASHIONED ONES have easy-to-use clips, and they're super easy to use as well as nice and light. They have made my life so much easier. The curl also lasts a long time and gives your hair a lot of volume. br>br>The reason I bought two sets is so that I can use only one size of roller depending on the look I want to achieve. You can't always improve on perfection; some things are better left as they were. I hope that this review aids you in deciding which ones to purchase.
WARNING! These aren't designed to be kept. To roll your hair onto the rollers, cool the ends of your hair so you can hold the hot rollers without getting burned. I've used hot rollers for my hair on a daily basis in the past, so I know what I'm doing. Imagine my surprise when I tried to use these that I had purchased for my daughter. It's a good thing I already knew how to use them because the instruction booklet didn't say how long to leave them in, and the indicator light on the roller, which was supposed to change from red to white when the rollers were heated, wasn't red to begin with and never changed color, so it didn't indicate anything. Prior to these rollers, I assumed that all rollers had the stay-in-place feature. How else are you supposed to pick up something hot enough to burn in order to use them? They have a cool feature on the end of each roller so you can hold them in your hair. We had a big event coming up, so I wouldn't have tried to use these if I hadn't realized there was no way to keep them cool while rolling hair! I was able to get them in after allowing each roller to cool on a hot plate, which meant they were too cool to curl properly by the time they were cool enough to handle. Curls did produce a result, but they only lasted about 2 hours before drooping. If you have any natural curl in your hair, like my daughter, good hot rollers should give you curls that last all day. With good hot rollers, which these aren't, I've been able to sleep through the night and wake up with curls. Who the hell came up with the idea for hot rollers without a stay-put mechanism? At the end of the rollers, isn't there a neat feature? I'd like to see the designer try these out on himself. Clearly, it hasn't been put through a quality assurance process. Buy at your own risk if you don't want to end up with second-degree burns on all of your fingers!.
