I use it all the time when I do braidouts. After I braid my hair (soaking wet) I melt a little in my hands and rub it down the braid then air dry. After airdrying, before taking them down I may rub a little more on the braid, take it down and go. I wouldn't think it would mess up the rollerset. IMO you can do no wrong with mango butter!!!
