Conair Foam Hair Rollers for Big Volume, Lift and Curl, Foam Rollers, Hair Curlers in Large Size, Pink, 9 Pack with Storage Bag

I’m a mixed chick and I have fine textured hair that ranges from 2a to 3b. The ends of my hair have an ammonium thioglycolate straightener on them but I’ve been growing that out since early 2020. It’s now early 2022. Let me tell you, these big soft foam curlers are PERFECT. I have tried everything and I mean EVERYTHING to get my hair to curl. I wanted something that would be gentle on my hair and non damaging but easy to sleep in. Take the wires out of the foam and they are sooo comfy! So as you can see in the video (which I filmed before I realized I could take the wires out) I use these differently than instructed. I was inspired by this brand called Cozy Curlers but I was not about to pay $35 for 8 curlers when with all my hair, I need about 24 curlers. The conair ones are cheap at $10 for 8 curlers and I bought 4 packs. Yes, 4. I use all but one curler so I can easily put 23 curlers in my hair. The net on my hand is called “highly elastic tubular net bandage” in the size meant for fingers and I purchased it on Amazon. It comes in a roll of 25 yards. You’ll want to cut pieces of the net a bit longer than the length of the rollers. Because my hair is long and thick, it takes literally days to air dry in normal rollers. These conair ones are perfect because they’re long enough for my hair to wrap around the entire length of the curler without the hair being wrapped on top of itself which increases dry time. Also, not using the curlers with the wires decreases drying time. I set my hair when it is wet from the shower and my hair is air dried in less than 24 hours. And it’s even less if I use my bonnet dryer. This is a vast improvement from the 2 hours under the dryer or 3 days of air drying with regular roller sets. Also, the amazing shine you’re seeing on my hair is with ZERO product! Except water, shampoo and conditioner, there was nothing else I applied to my hair. No gel, no hairspray, no creams or leave in no nothing. If you set your hair when it is wet (not damp, wet) the curls will last all week. I wash my hair once a week. When you curl the hair wet, the hair will get “muscle memory” and the curls will easily reform if you put them back into the rollers overnight without re-wetting the hair. And since these are so comfy to sleep in when you take the wires out, I put the rollers back into my hair every night before bed and wake up and then comb out the curls with a wide tooth comb and viola! Perfect hair!!! The only downsides to these curlers are that with the way I do this with the net, the hair does not get the volume at the roots that it does with regular roller sets and the roots don’t get smoothed. You can see in the photos my roots are frizzy. I don’t do anything about this but you can smooth the roots with a flat iron if you want. I would also suggest first putting your hair in a high ponytail on the top of your head and then using the curlers on the hair that comes out of the ponytail so that once it’s dry and you take your hair down, you’ll have major volume. You could also do small individual ponytails for each roller to smooth the roots (just Google “roller set ponytail method” and you’ll see what I mean- Black women have been doing this to get their roots extra smooth with a roller set for ages). Other than that the only other con is that when I have all these in my hair, it’s not as hot or glamorous as a regular roller set- I look like a LaLa Loopsie doll and wouldn’t dare leave the house with them in. In normal rollers I don’t mind leaving the house because normal rollers look glamorous- these rollers just look crazy. But they are soooo comfortable!! Also I probably sound like an infomercial but I was not sent free product, paid or reimbursed or compensated in any way for this review. I just love these rollers and finally found something that works for me after years of searching and I hope I can help someone else out there. :) CONAIR, Never discontinue these please!! Oh and in the photos with the grey sweater, I curled all the rollers going in opposite directions and in the photo with the navy plush robe I put all the rollers in the same direction away from my face all the way around my head. Doing so gives different looks as you can see.

Honestly forget bobby pins. THESE RIGHT HERE are super simple, cheap, and give you the tightest, bounciest curls WOW. I will say my one complaint is the threading and how fast they unravel. I hate when that happens, however I usually stitch them back quickly. Knowing how tight I curl my hair around them, I’m not surprised they got messed up so quickly. I’m still figuring out how to style tighter curls like these since. I sleep with them in (these pillow rollers, are by the way, much more comfortable than regular rollers). I often have to comb through my hair for some time in order to shape my hair curls the way i want. My hair is slippery and fine and I don’t hold heated curls well, if hold is what you need these rollers are insane. I literally had to put a pony tail on because I looked a little poodle-esque during my first run through using these. Once my hair relaxed a little I got a wonderful curl that I’ve never been able to get with curling wands. Plus it lasted all day and well into the next day! Love these, my new favorite hair product for waves and curls.

Easy to use, I ordered two packs of the Jumbo Foam rollers because I have long hair it falls underneath my backside. I didn’t need two packs though, one package was enough. However if you want tighter smaller curls buy two packs. I use eight (there’s eight in a pack) on my hair for medium barrel curls and they hold well. When I want to put my hair into a curly bun I use 16 (which is two packs) if the foam rollers to create smaller curls so when I put my hair into a bun it looks “messy”. I don’t want to use heat on my hair so this was a great alternative. Would’ve been five stars but the metal inside twists and bends and it’s hard to straighten it out. Sometimes it’ll pop right out the foam and it’s hard to put it back in. Your hair WILL break or get stuck and knotted when removing it from the roller. So prior to removing make sure you have your fav hair oil in your fingers to glide it through to remove it from the roll easily without breaking your hair. I use a coconut hair oil spray and sometimes my sunflower seed oil spray to remove my hair from the rolls. It’s not the most comfortable to sleep on. I also bought the pack of green blue yellow and pink rollers that come with a plastic clasp, I mostly use the larger ones because the small rollers are too small of a curl for my hair. They work great too.

I do like these rollers but find them harder to use than Velcro rollers as my hair slips off over and over again. The clips that came with the package are also a little difficult to use -- I think if they were longer it would cover the roller better. I tried using regular bobby pins which seems to help. I purchased the magnetic rollers since I've been having breakage as I'm been using Velcro rollers and it think it's contributing the the hair breakage. I'm trying to use the magnetic rollers without heat so you have to allow for quite along time for the hair to dry. I'm going to continue using these and hope my skill will improve.

I almost gave the product a 4 as it didn't do miracles - no product ever does. But I realized it does a good job. One or two or my curlers had the metal showing at the bottom which was worrisome for how well they will last, but still they work fine. AMAZYINGLY I can sleep on them comfortably as opposed to the smaller ones I've used for a couple years and tend to be less comfortable AND fall out frequently. I have found that if I use the jumbo curlers with moose even after a couple hours, I have a style to walk out with. I guess my reason for considering a 4 is that I look like a total freak when they are in. So be it. Good product.

Son como los necesitaba, ligeros y resistentes, suaves Puedes dormir con ellos puestos

Las pinzas que trae no sostien muy bien el cabello grueso

Probably good for long hair, useless on my medium hair

Finally I found a set of rollers that give big bouncy curls. These are jumbo sized so the curl is loose and gorgeous. I wrap my hair at night and sleep on it, I don’t find it uncomfortable at all because the rollers are quite large and fit into the pillow nicely. I imagine if you have a more firm pillow it might be a bit awkward, but I have not had an issue with sleeping with them in. Hair the next day is perfect. I love these rollers. Great price too. Get two packs if you are unsure how many you’ll need for your hair. Perfect for shoulder length or longer hair.

I can't figure out how to use these rollers and there is zero information or instructions included. They're also meant to be magnetic, but they're not.
