Mesh Rollers: Brush or No Brush

[inthepink]

I just bought some mesh rollers from Sally's and they have the brush inside that I could easily remove. I notice it seems like everyone here removes the brush. My question is why? Has anyone used the mesh rollers with the brush? What was the result? I am wondering since I have natural hair would it be easier to roll my hair with the brush and also get it straighter...but would the potential tangling make it not worth it.

Hi hairlove! I took out the brush but for the smaller rollers I kept it. It is for a better hold of the shorter hair. But i cannot sleep with them. It hurts. Also when i take`out the roller w/ brush i have to be carefull otherwise it will grap/snap the`hair badly.

I removed the brush to prevent any tangles, I didnt want to risk it. Since most people use rollersets as a protective style during stretching I would think that the thickness of the hair would be a problem with the brush.

Brush rollers cause damage by pulling the hair with tension on the hair, The only time you use a brush on hair is with a blow dryer and constant motion to smooth the hair .

mine didn't have the brush. I haven't seen any that do here in my state.

Yeah I just bought the Diane rollers and they didn't have any brush. I think you should remove the brush to prevent any tangles or it snagging your hair.

I think it's best not to use the brush (on natural or relaxed hair). If the hair is pulled taunt, then that should help with straightness imo.

Another vote for no brush. I've used mesh rollers both ways and the brush just pulls out your hair.
