Under the dryer now. Since I've been been using Nexxus my hair has been so easy when doing any kind of styling.

Finished setting my hair. I will be air drying. I hope it comes out smooth and soft. I used a lot more water.

Air drying , huh? You'll have to post how the results compare.

Currently doing an overnight pre-poo in preparation for setting tomorrow. I picked up a new conditioner from Marshall's since I ran out of my favorite pre-poo. (Giovanni SAS) It caught my eye since argan oil is the 2nd ingredient. My hair feels yummy.

i air dried my last set too. Just didn't have any time to sit under the dryer. Here is the new set. The curls are much softer and I just finger combed and fluffed a little.
I didn't flat iron the roots this time either. So my roots look extra natural! Lol

Here are some wonderful tutorials on using perm rods. http://www.stepbystepnaturalhairstyling.com/tutorials
I haven't mastered these yet. I did my perm rods on dry hair. I just misted with a tea mix. I put tension on the perm rods to get it smoother. Then I sat under the dryer.

I plan on flat ironing my hair today and using my flex rods to give me some curl.

Can I join all late to the roller set party? I've been doing them since the beginning of February.
Current hair length: Scrapping collarbone
Relaxed/Natural/Texlaxed/Loc'd: Natural
Current Setting method and styling choices: I've been doing curl former sets the most, but I want to get into another rollers.
Current Setting products: Not sure. Hoping to pick up tips and holy grail products. I have a lot of Dominican products, Motions wrap lotion, Shea Moisture wrap foam, Eco Styler.....a whole lot of stuff is under that cabinet.
Thing(s) you would like to work on/are hoping to achieve: I recent picked out my locks in September and tried wash and go's, but I got a lot of SSK. So I recently cut off about 4-5" and decided to give stretched/roller set styles a try to retain length.
How long do you plan to set?: Probably all year.
Here is the most recent set of curlformers barrel rollers. It lasted 2 days
I DC with a mixture of Silicon Mix and kanechom, set with Lacio Lacio and Olive oil eco styler at the roots.

Have you tried using some sort of setting lotion? Also pineappling at night helps to preserve style.

Great set and welcome to the fun!
My curlformers set never last either. I see thing online about people wearing them for a week, but regardless of how many use, the amount of product, etc I have never gone beyond 2 days. My roots stay stretched, but there isn't enough tension on the length of my hair to get it real adapt and stretch into the curlformer pattern.
Oh well they are great for blow outs!
Meanwhile you may get longer master results for your same Dominican product line up and traditional magnetic rollers with the covers

So I'm tired of wash n goes so I would like to try regular setting again. Im sitting under the dryer now. I set with some dominican hair treatment that you have to mix up yourself. Its supposed to be good. I noticed that my hair got really straight after i rolled it up. Lets see how it looks when I take them down.

Blairx0 i used star bio complex restructurer. OMG it has amazing slip and left my rollerset smooth and shiny. most leave ins leave me ashy or dull looking but this one left my hair with shine.
here is a small pic of my hair. Im setting my hair in satin rollers because a few spots were still damp. I will do a full pic in the morning. as far as i can see my roots are pretty smooth and my hair is shiny

I just bought a new hooded dryer. My soft bonnet dryer just isnt cutting it anymore. I got a lavatech salon bonnet dryer (tabletop) i'm not ready to commit to a standing dryer so this hybrid dryer will be good for me
I absolutely love this dryer
. I had one two years ago that died after one year and the company I purchased it from went out of business. I used the Red tourmaline hooded dryer which dried out my hair something awful. I broke down and order the Lavtech dryer last year, I couldn't be happier. Compared to the first one I had, this one is much more sturdy. My hair is soft and has a nice shine when I take out my rollers.Similar threads
