I did not see Jose's but I have velcro rollers at home. I rarely if ever use them.

I have fine, poker straight hair and they do nothing on their own. To get anything in my hair with the rollers, I have to use a round brush and blow dryer and style my hair that way. Then I can put in velcro rollers, spray with hairspray and use the blow dryer again. Then I put my make-up on, get dressed and pull the rollers out. All I get is slight body and I mean slight. It's not worth all the trouble.

Sometimes these work okay on second day hair. But these don't do a thing for my hair if I use them on poker straight hair. They give me no bend, no volume, no nothing. I have the exact same issue with those styling brushes like Calista sells. Those do nothing for my hair unless I have some style going already.

My hair is too fine for hot rollers. They slide right back out of my hair.

Shake hands with me, Sistah! I've got your hair exactly. 8)

I've used hot rollers in the past - tried several brands and received mixed results. DH and I are currently on a trip. I didn't want to lug hot rollers with me so thought I'd give the Conair version of JE rollers a try. I wasn't sure what size I'd need so I bought the assortment pack (3 different sizes, 4 of each) - found a set of three packs on eBay for about $30. I did use some styling products, but these rollers have given me better results than any hot rollers ever have.

Thanks for posting, @JeanLouiseFinch. I've tried most everything, I might give Conair a go. 8)
