[SW2011]

I'm a roller setting girl. I use the mohawk method. Part my hair into a mohawk, and then roll my hair under the roller instead of over. I use the gray and the purple magnetic rollers. And it takes between 30-45 minutes under my Pibbs. I'm about 8 weeks post relaxer, and rollersetting is helping me to stretch. HTH!

Do you still roller set?
Absolutely! I use rollersets to straighten my hair, since I don't use direct heat.

What method do you use?
Mohawk...rolling under

What size rollers?
Magnetics: Gray (2") and purple (1-3/4")

How long does it take to dry? Do you sit under the hood dryer or airdry?
I sit under a bonnet dryer for about 1 hour, then I finish airdrying, which takes about 4-5 hours.

What temp do you guys use under the dryer?

My knob broke off my Dazey Natural Wonder so it's stuck on highI'm scared to stick a penny in it to turn it down. It's so old, it might break.

What method do you use? Im back to rollersetting now so I can stop using direct heat as much.
What size rollers? I use the grey
How long does it take to dry? An hour and a half
Do you sit under the hood dryer or airdry?

I sit under the hood dryer mostly. Airdrying my hair in rollers takes over 10 hrs lol so you see why I use the hood dryer more.

You mean another Pibbs I had one and one of my BFF's that's a stylist was moving away and part of the purchase agreement for her salon was to sell it w/everything in it, including the dryers. She really didn't have any money (horrible divorce) so I gave her my Pibbs so she'd be able to still do some heads out of her new home. I know, I know...I miss him everyday but I know another will come along when the time is right. The Pibbs, I mean.

Thank you! It seems that the longer I go without a relaxer, the quicker my hair dries. I'm at 8 weeks post relaxer right now (with tons of newgrowth), so I can get it done in 30-45 minutes. With a fresh relaxer, it's still only about 45-50 minutes. Before I had my Pibbs, I would be under the dryer for HOURS!

I wish I could only take 45 minutes to dry. Even under the Pibbs at the salon I was under the thing for 1.5 hours. It was torture. Maybe it was defective or something.
