I think I'm gonna rollerset tonight. Although I really want to just flat iron and wear my hair stick straight this weekend. I think I'm going to use my largest rollers and saran wrap.

I reset last night.
Applied diluted shampoo with applicator bottle
DC'd for an hour w/ no heat (was watching 24)
Set with setting lotion mix (water, lacio lacio, EVOO, drop of peppermint oil)
Sat under dryer for about 1.5 hours
Here are some pics...
Size rollers I used...
Hair after dried
Styled
It was supposed to be this hairstyle

But I think it looks more like this (at least the front did)
That turned out really nice!!!!!
How far post relaxer are you guys? I find it so difficult to rollerset as I get further into my stretch (I'm 13 weeks post now)....
what's the diff in using the anchor method vs. the regular way you've been using??
looks cute--nice & sleek
I was using the snap on part of the roller and so I had lots of creases. Wasn't that bad if I wore it curly but not good with the roller wrap. I've always wanted to learn to roll like that, but just thought I never would and would have to get used to creases. With this challenge it should get better, with rollersetting so much.
OK--gotcha!
That makes sense---and the result was really cute
How many weeks post are you AR?
Have you tried securing with duck-bill clips intead of the regular roller clasps for a sleeker look? Just be certain meta isn't touching skin if you are going to using a hot dryer.
Well guys, I've had 2 failed flexi rod sets and one successful rollerset. I'm exactly 7 weeks post today and I'm having issues getting my roots straight. I just can't get a hang of blowing my roots out so I opted for the flat iron this time. I'll try blowing out my roots again next time
I'm 6 and beginning to struggle My last rollerset lasted all of 2 days...was looking a MESS!
So today--I pinned it into a bun. (still looking a mess )
I was thinking of flatironing the roots like you but was trying to stay away from ALL heat other than the hooded.
*sigh* IDK, rambling.....I don't want to leave the challenge, I don't want to relax yet,---but I don't want to look a mess either
/rant over
I'll post later when I figure out what to do
I don't know how I missed this! I'll join the next one... Good luck, ladies!
Ladies do not stone me I haven't set my hair in one week. I have been so busy I am going to push myself so I can get back on track!!!! I will set today and Sunday.
Rollerset last night.
CW w/ Alma and CO.
DC w/o heat 1 hour
Leave in of VO5 S&C and NTM
Didnt do anything w/ my newgrowth this time---the NTM didn't really make a differ. and the rollersetting in itself is keeping it stretched. 7 weeks post
I MIGHT be using heat in a month for my Birthday I want to have sleek and sexy hair
QUESTION:
So, we are supposed to post pics around the first of each month of the challenge....is this a rollerset pic, wet length pic, or any pic?
