**sigh** I'm rollersetting right now.... About to give up

[tiffers]

I've been trying tos do this damn rollerset all night, and all I have done is the mohawk part. I can't get the rollers tight enough, my hair keeps drying out and I'm getting so sleepy.... I just want to snatch all of these damn rollers out of my head! I'm so tired of trying to do this, it always comes out so crappy. I need some encouragement to keep going

Girl, if you're reeeaally sleepy, I say go to bed - because you'll end up frustrating yourself. But don't give up entirely. My first rollerset took me about 2 hours, and it wasn't even successful - dang I'm still trying to get it right. erplexed

Girl bun it and go to bed. Try again tomorrow when you are more alert. I am sure that will help.

Are you pulling your hair taught enough?
Some tips:

-Pull the hair taught in a 90 degree angle...straight up, or out if you're working on the back. (this works best for beginners)

-once you have the end on the roller use your hands like a clamp (thumb inside roller and rest of the fingers lay across the roller and hair itself) and continue to pull away from you head as you roll up...

-also if you're having trouble putting the ends on the roller you can try "squishing" them together a little, just the ends.

Hope this helps.

Thanks ladies! I was so fed up that I just took the rollers out of my hair. Then it occured to me to do a cheat set, so I put my hair in 8 ponytails and rollerset that way. It's my first cheat set and I'm under the dryer now, about to fall asleep

LOL I thought I was the only one that did that

Hey Tiffers, I'm under the dryer now after having the same experience you had and after an hour of rolling, combing, undue manipulation etc I decided to do the ponytail set too. I've done pony sets before but have been desperate for weeks now to achieve a successful rollerset. I've now come to the conclusion it's never going to happen for me so it's ponysets all the way from now on.

I will only ponytail rollerset now. It takes too long to do it the regular way.
