PRO TIPS:
If you're experiencing dry, dull, lifeless locks or split ends and breakage, heatless styling is a great way to reduce stress on your hair while keeping it looking put together! Before you buy, remember that the longer your hair is, the longer or wider the roller should be. Rollers that are small in diameter will create a tighter curl, but might not work on long or thick hair if the hair doesn't fully dry. For tighter curls on long hair, opt for long, narrow in diameter rods, and avoid overlapping the hair as you roll.
PRO TIPS:
Heatless styling can take a little getting used to, and can seem like a lot of work if you don't use the right aids for your hair type!
Fabric Styling Aids and Flexi Rods work for hair types that are straight to wavy, and work best on freshly washed hair that is 80-95% dry. Add a little setting lotion, hairspray or mousse, wrap, then let set overnight or for at least a few hours (or until completely dry).
Magnetic Rollers work best for "wet sets" on straight hair that doesn't hold a hot iron curl. It also works well for wet sets on curly and frizzy hair to give a smooth finish. On damp hair, add a setting lotion, mousse, or a 50/50 mix of gel and water in a spray bottle and spray evenly on hair. Comb small to medium sections smooth, wrap around the roller, and secure with a hinged clip. once the hair is completely dry, remove the rollers and gently separate curls or brush lightly to voulumize.
Velcro (self-grip) Rollers work best for volumizing fine hair or bangs, and can also be used to set volume and curl on hair that is still warm from blow drying.
