-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Requirements
when we start let's post our starting pics then from there post your update/progress pic every 3 months.

EDIT 12/27 **Official start date is January 2nd 2010, But this challenege is for a year so you can also start at anytime during the year but try to at least do the challenge for 3 months. the end date is December 2010, however,[/B] you can do the challenge for as long as you want be it 3 months, 6 months or the full year

**I also wanted to add that we don't have to use the conventional rollers i.e. magnetic type rollers for this challenge either, I know rollersetting can be aggravating so I also wanted to mention that we can use other tools like Curlformers, flexirods, jerri curl type rods, ceramic rollers, wet wraps too.

it's also cool if you choose to rollerset on dry hair BUT on hair that's been airdried not blown out, I only say this because were trying to become less dependant on using too many heat appliances, the heat from hooded dryers as we know is less damaging (indirect) and airdrying of course is always better (my hair doesn't like airdrying but it's still the better method for those that can do it successfully).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rules:
This is going to be a more laid back challenge, a keep it simple one, I know rollersetting can take up alot of a person's time. You can post your starting length pics. Rollerset no more than 2x's weekly, I wash my hair twice a week. Rollersets on wet hair after a wash, or airdried hair. I figure since this is a more lenient challenge we will all be more loyal to it instead of the jail style challenges that are strict lmao!


1. What rollers will you be using?
2. What products will you use to set? (i.e. setting lotion, leave ins, serums etc.)
3. What do you want to achieve in your stretch (length, health both)?
4. Will you be using a blowdryer on your roots? Will you be using a blowdryer at all (optional)?
5. Will you be airdrying or using a hooded or bonnet dryer?
6. What styling tools will you be using? (fine tooth comb etc)

for the blowdryer part i'm lenient since sometimes I myself do blowdry on low heat high temp to get smoother hair/roots, I notice when I round brush the hair and THEN do a saran wrap I get better sleeker results. in the end it is still less heat than if I blew my hair out from wet to dry on high speed high temp.

post updated pics every 3 months (if you are doing the challenge for 3 - 6 months post pics every month and 1/2, I think it's better to give your hair a chance and normally a few months is a good enough time to see if there is any change in your hair, sometimes it takes more than a month for progress.

For styling at night you can pin curl, wrap or whatever method you have that is gentle on the strands. flat ironing is ok for the roots!!!! I have not flat ironed my hair since Oct 17th 2009 and that was only for a party. You get a few passes for the full head.

But lets try to stick to no flat ironing (except for the roots) unless it's for length checks. AND if you must flatiron your whole head just try to keep it to a minimum, I swear I didn't think i'd make it without my flatiron but it's really been pleasant without using it soooo much.

These are the tools that I use for my rollersets:

I do not use extra fine teeth combs I am trying to keep hair on my head but it's your preference.
http://www.sallybeauty.com/Cricket-Styling/Sectioning-Pro-25-Silkomb/SBS-354602,default,pd.html

this is a great detangler and smoother

http://www.sallybeauty.com/Bone-Super-Tail-Comb/SBS-152005,default,pd.html
I use the super tail comb after using my jilbere to apply conditioners, leave in etc then I use the cricket comb

that's all I can think of for now, ya'll can chime in if you want to edit anything,

[Chaosbutterfly]

I'm so in! I love rollersetting!

Cutenss, are you getting the ceramic ones from rickys?
I've had my eye on those, but I don't know what I'd do with all my plastic ones. I have about 50 of them.

ETA:
1. What rollers will you be using?

For now, I'm using the red and teal plastic magnetic ones, with a few purple ones scattered in. I love the body and volume that I can get with using smaller rollers. I also will be doing flexi rod sets. I have purple ones now, but am going to get smaller ones.

2. What products will you use to set? (i.e. setting lotion, leave ins, serums etc.)

I'll mainly be using the old school lottabody that you have to dilute with water. I'll also be using Herbal Essence's Long Term Relation Leave-In, Chi Silk Infusion, and a very small amount of Vatika Oil to seal in moisture and add shine. I also want to try out Lacio Lacio.

3. What do you want to achieve in your stretch (length, health both)?

Thickness...I'd push my momma down (sorry, mom) if it meant that I could have thick hair. Obviously length would be lovely as well, but mostly, I just want thicker and stronger hair.


4. Will you be using a blowdryer on your roots? Will you be using a blowdryer at all?(optional)

No blowdryer.


5. Will you be airdrying or using a hooded or bonnet dryer?

I'll be using a hooded dryer. I currently have the Gold N Hot 1200 Watt tabletop dryer, and I really like it. I dry my hair about 85 percent on High, and then progressively turn it lower until my hair is completely dry. And then I sit under the cool setting for about 15 minutes. Waiting for BSB to get that Pibbs.


6. What styling tools will you be using? (fine tooth comb etc)

I use a wide tooth plastic comb, a K-Cutter Comb, a fine tooth rattail comb, plastic hair clips, metal two-pronged alligator clips, a spray bottle, and saran wrap.

ETA: Got my starting picture.

 

[longhairlover]

I've been eyeballing those as well, I just wonder if they give the same smooth sets, guess i'll be the guinea pig, hopefully they will be on sale this weekend coming up.
I have a super sized bag with rollers too from beige (thought i was going to be doing shirley temples back in the days) to black

I'm so in! I love rollersetting!

Cutenss, are you getting the ceramic ones from rickys?

Cutenss, are you getting the ceramic ones from rickys?
I've had my eye on those, but I don't know what I'd do with all my plastic ones. I have about 50 of them.

Hi Chaosbutterfly , I am going to get 4 sets of the medium rollers. I think that will be enough. You can always put your old ones on the hair swap thread. I hope I can do this. I am NOT good at rollersetting.

Hi Chaosbutterfly , I am going to get 4 sets of the medium rollers. I think that will be enough. You can always put your old ones on the hair swap thread. I hope I can do this. I am NOT good at rollersetting.

 

[longhairlover]

on the dry hair would it be hair that's already blowdried? or airdried?

I was thinking mainly on wet hair so we can try to avoid too much heat from the blowdryer.

if airdried then yeah it's cool. i'll add that too my first post.

pruple and gray magnetic rollers

**revisions**

also pookaloo83 reminded me that some do flatiron their roots, I use to do this too forgot about it, i'll edit the first post to flat iron use for roots.

I don't want this challenge to be too strict, I know it's a challenge, but I think it's good that we take things one week at a time, I know for myself it has been hard not to flatiron once a week and blowdry like I normally do, but i've slowly began to adjust, and the times i've had to flatiron I really appreciated it

 

[longhairlover]

cool, remember patience if this is going to be the first rollerset, my first few (well more than a few) rollersets were horrid, and caused me to throw a temper tantrum

so patience, and use the slide in clips they make things much easier, at sallys they also have large bobby pins specifically for rollersetting they work well too.

I'm not joining the challenge, but I AM roller setting for the first time on my next touch up (which is also the first time I'll be doing that). I'm subscribing for tips and will keep a close eye for the once in a blue moon times I do roller set

 

[longhairlover]

i'm going to try that porosity control you attached.

I'd like to join, but I want to wait till the end of this relaxer stretch to start, if thats alright. All this NG + short hair + rollers= hot mess for me. I'll be WnG till touch up time. I'll be keeping and eye on this thread in the meantime .
