How do you get them to stay on your hair? I hope that's not a dumb question. It looks like you roll your hair and they just stay there.
I like the results though, very pretty

I loved them and didn't have any complaints.... but i've only used them twice

I think I will enjoy them (and use them) more when my hair is past shoulder length

Not sure if I have remorse, but I enjoy them and plan to keep them as another style to add to my arsenal, but if you are on a budget, flexirods work just as good and cheaper, too...

I took mine back. I felt bad paying all that for some rollers.

I have a tad bit of remorse because I've only used them once. I was hoping for a nice curl but I think it made me look much younger.
But I only got two of the wide and longs and that stick thing so all in all under 30 dollars. I'm good!

To be honest I think the stick thingy was quite cheap, or maybe my sister's hair was too think, who knows! All I know was that it snapped in half after 4 curls.
Personally, I think rollers or a curling iron can make better (and reliable) curls.

I agree as well. I liked them (Although I wish the style would have lasted a little longer). They looked really good. I will use them more when the weather cools.

When I first saw Curlformers I thought it looked alot like the hairstyle my mom used to do on me when I was 7 (no offense to anybody). I'll pass! But I wouldn't mind putting these on my daughter.

So far I really like my curlformers. I think I had pretty good success with them on my natural hair.

Re: CURLFORMERS Results
Well, the curlformers were pulling too tight on my scalp to sleep in. So I took them out. My hair was still a little damp in one section. I didn't expect much because this was just a test run. The sections I used were crazy big. I think it came out OK for my first time. But judge for yourselves. I've seem some posts with really big pics in them....I don't know how to do that. Sorry.

Re: CURLFORMERS Results
Thanks for posting, that looks great for a trial run! Where did you get your set for $27.00 ??
I thought I was going to have to take out a loan to get those thing!

Re: CURLFORMERS Results
Thanks! At Sallys the stick thing was $4, a pack of 10 short curlers was $11, and a pack of 8 long ones cost $12. It actually cost me less than that because I had my Sally's card discount. I think I'll get another pack of long @ $12. That will bring total cost up to $39 which is still cheaper than buying the "kit" which cost $60. I'm neck length so I don't need a whole lot of curlers. I am definitely using these again.

I purchased mine from Sally's too and spent around $40. 
I voted still happy I bought them. I bought the hook, 1 pack of orange and a couple of packs of long pink ones. At the time I bought them, I wanted more definition in the back of my head than I felt like I was getting from twist outs in that section. Since being on LHCF I need to buy more (hair has def grown and is much thicker). DDs have used them also. We like them.

They ripped my hair out. I didn't take them back but I won't be using them again either.

The 1st time I used them I had a similar experience. Turns out I just didn't know what I was doing or how to use them. I tried again and really really like them. They key (for me anyway) is small sections and to slide down rather than out.
YMMV
I think the price has come down significantly in the last year. As for people who say that it pulls their hair, I was watching Youtube the other day and saw someone do a tutorial on it. She shows why people get their hair snagged in the curlformers and how she does it so that it doesn't snag. Now she can do it without even looking.

I don't have them yet but after seeing the tutorial I might roll out and get them from Sally's. Worse comes to worse, I'll just return them.

I bought the box for 61 bux
My man was like "you spent 60 bux on something you can do with regular rollers"
My hair was sticking out of the ends of them.
and the rod thingy broke 40% into my doing my hair
Got my money back promptly
