Suggestions for Styling Cream to use on dry hair with hot hair stylers

DannysWife — Mon, 15 Sep 2014 00:16:40 GMT

I air dry my hair and the next day use hot rollers, flat irons, etc...

What I am looking for is a styling creme/lotion/etc., that I can use on my hair before using heated hair stylers.. Something that will give me extra hold and control fly-aways..

I have used heat protection such as CHI, but that doesn't give me the extra hold I need when I use hot rollers or the styling wands..

Thank you..

Spray each section of hair with firm hold hair spray before you roll it or flat iron it. I also use a bit of mousse and blast with the hair dryer to dryish before rolling. I put the mousse on right after I potty and before I do anything else in the morning so it is mostly air dry before I do my hair, which is last before clothes. If it is still too damp, I blast with the hair dryer and then style. Often I can just blast and go, but that is my cut.

When I use hot rollers, I use regular hair spray - after I have the rollers in. My hair is stick straight, so the strong hold is needed. Regular hair spray works really well.

I, too, air-dry overnight before flat ironing. To avoid frizz and fly aways, I apply my styling creams/heat protector to my wet hair. In the AM, I flat iron as usual, then apply a glossing serum or oil for shine. I don't use hair spray, so I can't speak to that.

Doesn't the hair spray ruin your rollers though? It probably gets all over the outer rim doesn't it??

Not really....I spray after the rollers are already in my hair. I guess it does get on the outer edge of the rollers but its never bothered me.

You spray each section first, the roll, the spray all again when you are done with your set. You can always wipe them down with alcohol once a month or so if you find them too messy. I do this to remove product buildup from curling irons and flat irons as well.

I wash my hair at night, and while it is wet, I use Alterna CC styling cream or WEN styling cream or Living Proof PHD. I comb it through my hair and let it air dry. Then I pull it up in a doubled stretchy hairband into a ponytail/bun.

The next day, I use my hot rollers and I get great results. I only have to wash it every other night.
