How do you get the roots to lay down? And do you use gel or setting lotion? Also how do you sleep with the style if its a rod set or a straw set? How do you moisturize but at the same time try to get the curls to hold? Any specific comb to use?
well I use magnetic rollers w/ some whipped pudding or shea butter,while my hair is wet(not dripping though). I don't use rolling papers and the roots come out fine. I don't like to use a lot of heat on my hair, so I just use the soft bonnett dryer on cool. It takes FOREVER TO DRY though. I have only done this once or twice though, since it takes so long. I finger comb to set the style, see:
this was taken right after I used motions condioner in burgandy to cover the blonde highlights that I had and got bored w/. I don't think it looks too bad. It's a little matronly, but I liked it.
