Who has used velcro rollers? r/o

I bought some a while back at the dollar store. I used them once and they were a bit difficult to remove, but this was pre LHCF when my strands were in bad shape.

This morning I decided to try them out again. I put two rollers on the hair at my temples to give them a little curl. (I am wearing my hair back today in a low bun.) Before I put the rollers in I ran some Shea Butter pomade down the hair shaft and rolled.

When I took the rollers out I had to go slowly. The hair sticks to the rollers. But I got some nice fullnes and I only had the rollers in for about an hour.

What do you guys think of them? Should I just go get some flexirods or better yet, invest in the rollersetting equipment?

I tried the velcro rollers, and even though I unrolled them slowly(and didn;t pull out any hair)...I could still feel them 'tugging' at my hair and I was uncomfortable with that, so I don't use them. If I were you and you are going to roller set your hair often, I'd invest in some roller equipment.

I have magnetic rollers (but never use them) the thought alone of using velcro rollers doesn't sound appealing to me at all. At least with the magnetic ones you can just whip them out and not to have to worry about breakage as you do this.
