Hot rollers
Does anyone use hot rollers and can you recommend yours?
I used to use them way back when and they were the only way to get my hair to hold curl. I want just large ones this time to put some body in my pin-straight hair.
TIA!

Re: Hot rollers
I just bought some affordable conair set from walgreens. It works pretty well! I pretty much only use them for special occassions when I can't get to a salon/am too cheap to go to a salon - I put them in my hair, do my makeup, etc. and take them out 20 minutes later and I have great controlled bouncy curls. But I also have pretty thick and frizzy/curly hair to begin with, so keep that it mind because you said your hair was straight.

Re: Hot rollers
I would love a recommendation for hot/steam rollers too. I had my hair done with them last month and the curls held so well in my pin straight fine hair.

Re: Hot rollers
I love the Conair set that I have. I have fine hair w/ no real body. I put these rollers in and it looks like I walked out of the salon. It only takes about 5 minutes too, which is great. They are about $50.00 for the set and also I told my niece and sil about them and they love them too. Image Attachment(s):

I have something similar to this but it is not as nice, I guess I got the cheapy set! I recall paying around $25. But the dials and stuff look the same.

Re: Hot rollers
I had another set just like this about 2 years ago, that was much cheaper, but worked the same. My mom bought me this set for Christmas one year and I love them, but the cheaper verison works just as well.

Re: Hot rollers
Thanks for the recs! I ended up getting these because they are dual voltage and small. I'd like to take them to Italy in a few weeks.
They work just as well as my old set of rollers that bit the dust a few years ago. The best part is they were $15.99.
The only con is that there are fewer rollers so I need to roll a lot of hair in a few places but it seemed to curl it all fine. Image Attachment(s):

Re: Hot rollers
My hair stylist recommended using these to change up my style from time to time.......
Are they easy to use?  I'm not too good at hair stuff, I can't even make a french braid!  To flat iron, I basically turn my head upside and run the iron through, so I get the back of my head.........
Are these easy and klutz-proof?

I think they are very easy to use. I'm not good at hair stuff either, and rollers are a lot easier for me than a curling iron.
It may be harder to roll really long hair though. I noticed they have sets with all jumbo rollers now though so that may make it easier.
