This is the first I've roller set my hair in a very long time. I used velcro curlers, flat ironed with my Remington on 360. My results:
**i have added 4 tracks in my hair for length.

a few texture shots before setting

OMG SOMEBODY ELSE WHO USED VELCRO ROLLERS!! :love:

Not to thread hijack or anything but I have had these rollers sitting in my closet for the longest time but that's only because i am paranoid about using them on wet or damp hair. Was your hair damp when you rolled it? Did you experience any tugging or difficulty taking them down?
 
Thanks everyone :)

Beautiful hair! I love the rollerset!

ETA: How long have you been transitioning?

Not exactly sure. I switched from relaxing to texturizers the beginning of 08 & one day I just decided to not relax nemore. If I had to guess I'd say almost 1.5 almost 2 years.

lol its cool. I was a lil skeptic about using them at 1st too. My hair was damp but I sprayed it with Soft Sheen Care Free Curl moisturizer before I set it. I didnt have a problem taking them down, slid out easily. Maybe one or two needed a tug but nothing major (& believe me I was looking for broken hair in the curlers lol).
 
Your hair is gorgeous!
Not to be OT, but looking at your texture shots, I think we may be hair twins! Yay! Now I finally know at least one of my hair types (I have 3 different textures going on... :( )

YESSSS! That is so weird! I can't know 100% since I'm still transitioning but I know I have 3c and 4a, and then the front on the sides is looser than that, and I think that may be 3b.
