Velcro Rollers

I came across these buried in my closet. I haven't used them in years but putting them in was like riding a bike you don't forget. Very quick and convenient.

@Bonkers1 did you have your hair when you took them out lol. Omg, I used to sleep on those suckers, and the snap on and the brush. Maube that's why I'm so tough, lol

@shoekitty

You are so right they do pull some hair out. Never slept with them in.

I use large hot rollers - now. Love them! Makes styling quick and easy.

I used to put in the rollers before I would take a steamy shower. Nice, soft curls.

Yes, I still use a couple at the top of my forehead...to "kill" a very stubborn natural center part.

I have used them on occasion to turn under my short Bob on the sides and a bit of crown volume. Some shopping channel stylists back in the day used them and even sold them.

I still use them for a bit of lift on the top of my head. The difference between my old velcro rollers and newer ones is that my newer ones have metal inside of them so when I put some styling spray on the rolled hair, I hit it with some heat from the hair dryer and the metal will heat up better for hair hold.

I only heat them up for a few minutes.

I know a lady who has the most gorgeous shortish hair. It always looks amazing. I asked her how she styled it. She said every morning she puts these rollers in her hair, sprays them and leaves them in a while and then zaps them with her hair dryer. She finishes getting ready and then takes them out and loosely brushes her hair.

I still have my Nick Chavez Velcro rollers from back in the dark ages. 😂

@haddon9 I have the same velcro ones with metal inside. They do need heat after or before putting them in.

Me, too!

I roll the top for volume, and spritz a little hairspray.... and get great height!
