No, I cannot wetset to save my life!! :) I am just dry rollersetting right now, because my hair got kinda flat lastnight so I am drysetting for a few hours so I can wear my hair down later on.

lolol..i feel ya. I think I did a good job wetsetting but unfortunately I used too much setting lotion or something because my curls are crispy and I had a lot of breakage while finger combing and then wrapping. I used wayyy more water than setting lotion but I guess it was still too much...boo hoo:( . Anyway, going forward I'm gonna stick to bunning. All the rest of these styles are causing me to manipulate my hair too much and I guess its still too fragile.

OP - sorry for a minor jack of your thread.:)

Did you use the Universal Styling cream as a leave-in or did you put it on after the leave-in?

I didn't use the USC until after I took out the rollers. I used the USC and the Aveda Brilliant Serum and then wrapped the hair. Although, when reading on the back, I found out after the fact that the USC can be used on wet hair as well.

It looks cute to me! On a side note though its always best to try new techniques/products etc.on a day where you aren't going anywhere since you don't know what the outcome may be. Very cute though, I don't think you need to curl it with the curlers.

Girl tell me about it...I don't know what made want to try the silk wrap to go to a wedding. :lol: My intentions were to do the silk wrap last night, but I was so tired when I got home. Plus, I knew my peeps were waiting to hear about how my silk wrap turned out. So, I couldn't let them down. :lol: :lol:

That's okay girl!!

I never use setting lotion for my rollersets for that very reason. A creamy leave in and sometimes just plain old water does the trick.

Thanks nelli!!! I'm so glad you all turned me on to it. Have you tried it wet hair? I read on the back of the tube that it can be used on wet and dry hair.

Yes, I've tried it on wet hair. It makes hair really soft.
 
Oh by the way...something else I learned from this silk wrap experience, is that I need to learn how rollerset without using snap-on magnetic rollers. But, I cannot rollerset with duck bill clips to save my life! :lol: If I had used those the wrap might have laid a little more smoother, because I wouldn't have had those prints/lumps in my head.:D

IMO it looks VERY bouncy and nice!!!:D

I honestly think you may have stayed under the dryer too long coupled with the fact that you may have used a tad too much saran. When I did it, I only stayed under for about 5-7 minutes. I was sweating like a ho in church!:lachen:

No you didn't!!!! :lachen: :lol:

ETA: Very nice Divine!

Thanks for the tip. If I EVER try it again, no setting lotion!! lol

Your hair is very pretty. Keep doing what you are doing.

P.S. Aveda is now officially on my list of must tries. I'll see if I can get some samples this week.
