You hair looks great. I followed her methods but I couldn't get the mesh roller to stay in my hair so I switched to some magnetic rollers with the cover. I am also a 3c natural and that was the best rollersetting job I've done since being a natural.
Does anyone know how you get the pin to stay in the mesh roller that doesn't have the brush in it?
Also, did you try the silk wrap instructions? Was it successful?
Soft Bonnet Ionic dryer...the one that looks like the space helmetLooks great!
What type of hooded dryer did you use?
Looks like you did a fabulous job and it really came out beautiful!!
(I had to flatiron my roots too, just couldn't get the rollers snug enough).
WoW! It turned out gorgeous! I'd love to try this but how did you master the pins?!!?
IDK about the pins I just stuck them through the top and maneuvered in around to the other end of the roller when I felt tightness. It took me awhile but by the time I got a hang of it I went back and secured the first ones that where loose a little bit better. Its kind of like securing a safety pin through 2 pieces of cloth. Didnt try the wrap. My ends where not smooth enough. Thats anohter thing I have to work on next week.
Okay yall I was about to have a break down...I was seriously contemplating texturizing my hair. If I wear my hair curly I get knotserplexed. If I wear my hair straight I get split ends from the heat...and when my hair splits, it SPLITS
Like big huge spilt ends that looks like forks or the ends of tre branches. Not little ones that can be saved until the next scheduled trim.
So my last resort was to stop being lazy and attempt a rollerset....and lets just say that Im very very happy with my results for a first timer and if it looks like this now, I can only imagine what it will look like after I master the technique.
I washed and deep conditioned with Silk Elements Shampoo and Conditoner. I used the method from hairlove's website to rollerset:

The products I used were Biolage Leave in Tonic, ORS Foam Setting Mouse, ORS Hair polisher, and water in a spray bottle. I thoroughly saturated every section with water and added a little bit of setting lotion and polisher. I went under the soft bonnet dryer for almost 1.5hrs (I was really afraid of having bad results so I stayed under until I knew for sure that my hair would was dry) After the rollers where out, I flat ironed my roots (not the entire length of my hair) with the ceramic iron. I was going to wrap but I kinda like the curls so Ill keep them out. Hopefully Ill notice a change in my hairBTW even though I am a type 3 my entire haed is defnitely not the same texture. I have really thick kinky roots esp in the crown hair. That hair is very coarse resistant and wiry and literally repels water
