PIC REQUEST! Natural Hair Rollersets!

[MsLizziA]

So i decided that i want to wear my hair straight more often but without all the heat but i don't really know how to rollerset natural hair and i don't know which rollers are best to use. I bought some velcro rollers but from what i am hearing that's a big no no so i am sending those back. So i am on a quest to find the best kind of roller there is to use on my hair especially for the ends because last time i tried a rollerset, they didn't seem to want to lay down.

Any way i need to know what kind of rollers you natural ladies use and i would like to see pics with the results of these rollersets. I would greatly appreciate it LHCF sisters!

Also if you use the magnetic ones, i would like to know if you use the snap on ones or if you use your own roller clips. Thanks!

If you don't mind visiting another fotki album, I've got a few pics of a quickie flexirod set I did in December.

Oh yea, no matter what type of rollers I use I always use end papers to cover my ends. I use Lottabody as a setting lotion. They always come out straight and smooth - w/heat or air-dried.

I'm not natural but my aunt uses the magnetic rollers for smooth sets.

I've used velcro rollers in the past and my hair was fine. But for my wet sets, I use magnetic rollers with the clamps and bobby pins

My awesome rollerset. I can't tell you how I did it, it's a secret

Your hair is beautiful. Please tell me detail for detail how you did your hair and what products you used. Please Pretty Please .

I washed and deep conditioned. Before rollersetting I spray my hair with the Aphogee gree tea Keratin reconstructor. I then section my hair into 3 sections. Before rolling each section I spray it with diluted lotta body and water (1:2). Lastly, I dry under a hard bonnet dryer.

Your hair is sooo soft and silky!!!! How did you get the roots so straight?

ahhh ... sorry, I totally didn't see that . Do the ponytail holders not leave a mark in the hair?

That looks like one of my rollersets. You're right. The technique is top secret.

Is lottabody good to use for rollersetting? I actually have a big bottle I purchased a lonngggg time ago that I have never once used. It's in one of my cabinets somewhere. Does it leave any sort of flakes or crazy white stuff in hair?

They leave a little bit of a mark but after I wrap it to do the silk wrap it's fine.L

Lottabody is all I use for my sets, love it. No flakes at all.

I almost gave away my magnetic rollers! I figured I'd never use them again since I natural now. Thank God I kept them!

 

[Allandra]

I do roller sets via the ponytail method (love them). I use magnetic rollers with the snap on clips. It's great at getting my roots straight. Sometimes I flat iron my hair after that, and sometimes I don't (just depending on what look I'm going for).

I'm not laughing at you guys. I am exploding with joy at your successes. After my attempt at separating a Curlformer set into ringlets and seeing the preview, I have a feeling I know your secret too.

 

[augiemoment]

with lottabody you may need to dilute it with water else it can make you hair stiff. but it is great in adding volume to the hair
