a feature i hadn’t previously seen is the little clip warmer on the side, so the clips enveloping your roller-wrapped hair supply a little extra heat on the exterior. kinda smart! this roller set heats up super-fast for us impatient and morning-challenged types. and the rollers are fuzzy, which i think may be a little more forgiving on less-than-perfect, amateur set-jobs. (yeah, i need lots of practice.)

these particular clips might not be strong enough for long, thick hair, but mine is shoulder-length and texturized/layered, and i’m not trying to achieve a pristine curl, or roll it all the way up to the scalp. also, i really try not to take sections of hair that are wider than the roller. it might seem more efficient to use less rollers, but you’re just bringing heartache on yourself.

also, there’s plastic completely surrounding both ends of these roller, so you’re not risking an encounter with exposed metal the temperature of the sun. novel.

still trying to figure out how/where to distribute which of the 3 sizes of curlers throughout my hair for the best results. a couple times i’ve left the house looking a little more shirley temple than i was hoping, but it’s definitely playful and buoyant, and you can’t beat the volume!

oh, it’s this one:
Conair Instant Heat Multi-Sized Hot Rollers with Heated Clips

i’m gonna peruse youtube for hot roller tips. it seems there are a LOT of girls who feel inspired to set up cameras in their bathrooms and broadcast their grooming techniques to the masses. weird, but maybe useful.
