I chose 1hour and a half. But I also take little breaks so I won't die of boredom and heat from sitting under the dryer.

The longest I CAN sit is an hour and a half straight, 2 broken up. I'm usually dry in 1 and a 1/2 at home. I used to dry in 30-45 minutes at Dom. salons if I got a "hot one" (you NYC ladies know what I mean...

LOL yup sure do

I can only stand 1 1/2 hours. If it's not dry after that, I get creative and take some of the rollers out and re-roll it w/o the roller and secure the hair with a small silver roller clip. It dries super fast then.

Re: Rollersetting Diva\'s, Whats your drying time?
Hello everybody
I am surprised by the % of 2 hrs drying time answers. I have been trained to rollerset since I was very young, but believe me after 1 1/2 hour under the dryer I have no heart to stay longer. I think the drying conditions are the key: if the temperature is low, if you can move your head inside the dryer, it is certainly feasible. As for me, with my head full of very big rollers, I can barely move my head once under the hood (even if it is a professional type dryer). Add a lot of heat to get a lasting effect and you can understand why I say that 1 1/2 hr is already a performance .

Re: Rollersetting Diva\'s, Whats your drying time?
I prefer to airdry or sit under the drier for about 20 minutes tops and airdry the rest. If I sit under the drier any longer than that my scalp gets so dry that I have to wash again the next day because of the itchies.

With my current length (just grazing collar bone), I'm under the dryer for at least an hour and 20 minutes and that's with my commercial dryer. When it was long (at least 3 inches past bra strap) I was under the dryer for nothing less than 4 hours.

4 HOURS? Oh dear! I am under the dryer at home for about an hour before I feel like my eyeballs are going to pop out of my head from dryness.
Wildflower, you mentioned getting the itchies. Do you think the dryer heat is stimulating to your scalp (positive) or just plain drying thus hindering growth(negative)? I am wondering b/c when I was using the hooded dryer once per week for roller sets I had itchies (without dandruff) but I noticed my hair seemed to grow a little faster too . . .

It only takes me an hour or less, but I use the biggest size rollers that you can get. They're the big lime green ones.

I get extreme dryness and the itchies are followed by flakes and scalp irritation due to so much scratching. I can't find anything positive about that. I prefer sleepiing in rollers. the discomfort lasts only one night as opposed as getting an itchy scalp for the rest of the week. I guess I'm just not used to using any heat anymore.

Gotcha! LOL! Maybe the stimulation I was talking about is from the pre-shampoo and/or deep conditioning treatments rather than the heat drying out your scalp.
Does your hair dry completely when sleeping in rollers? Or do you start out with dry hair? I want to try either this or using the caruso rollers. I can't find the time to sit under the dryer so long . . .
