Five Stars

I am very excited to report that I believe I have found my new favorite product for my thick, curly hair!Curls are a different beast. They take special treatment and tools in order for them to act the way we want to. For example, a few thoughts/lessons we curly haired girls are told: don't brush, definitely don't brush when wet, use a wide-tooth comb only, moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! A gel can dry out your curls, so use a cream, use a conditioning shampoo or no shampoo at all, find out who makes the thickest conditioner, chances are the cheap drugstore shampoos are not good enough, don't wash more than once or twice per week, but if you wait too long, your curls will soon become dreads, scrunch up, don't pull down, comb it out in the shower, prepare to spend at least 20 minutes combing out your hair each shower, etc. etc!So when a new product comes along, which is not too often for my curly hair, it is heaven sent! And that's what these foam rollers are! I truly feel like this product brings out the best in my curls. It's my hair...but better!!1. comb hair out with leave-in conditioner2. put in your favorite product (I just discovered Pantene Pro-V controlling curl creme, yes, a drugstore find!)3. Optional: add heat protectant spray if you are going to diffuse or use hair dryer4. Start rolling! (Keep bigger sizes for underneath and back, and smaller sizes the higher you go and very small for around your face.)5. Air dry or use a hair dryer to speed up the processThe rolling process is so so easy! Do you know those clipless curling irons? That is essentially what these rollers are, you start at the center of your group of hair (really it's however much you want to wrap at a time, maybe an inch for each section), wrap the bottom around the roller, then finish rolling the rest of the hair above the roller up to the crest of your head. Then so they stay in place, they easily bend up into a tight U shape, even farther than a U (see photos). I was so surprised at how fast and easy this step was. I did it all- shower, wrapped, rolled, diffused, and mowed the lawn all while my daughter took a nap.I decided to take a diffuser to speed up the process- it was the afternoon and I had places to go! I couldn't wait 3-4 hours to air dry. I dried for about 10-15 minutes, took them out, and diffused a little more with my hair down. I feel amazing! My hair feels really beautiful all the way around. NO FRIZZ. Like I said earlier, it's my curls, but even better. I hope to use this product for THE REST OF MY LIFE! Please don't ever stop producing this product!Other pros:- they are color coded! Thank you!!- there are tons of different sizes! Awesome! I may in the future order another pack so I can do my hair all purple (the biggest) to have bigger waves.- the foam is really soft and pliable- easy to bend and unbend- comes in a nice enough plastic zip up caseAWESOME PRODUCT. WELL DONE. THANK YOU!!!

I don't understand how the other reviewers said they can sleep in these things. The rods are soft, but they have a hard plastic end. I've tried sleeping in them multiple times. When laying my head on my pillow I can feel every lump. And when I move in my sleep the hair pulls. Now, keep in mind, I'm a light sleeper. But I really don't understand how people can sleep in these comfortably. The only way I can imagine someone sleeping in these is if they are propped up on pillows and never move.So, this is what I do. Instead of sleeping in them I use them while getting ready in the morning. Right after showering and blow drying my hair I put the rods in. After blow drying, my hair is warm and possibly still has a little moisture left. I put the rods in quickly, and as my hair cools it sets. I leave them in for at least 30 minutes, up to an hour, and go about my morning routine while my hair sets. As soon as I remove the rods I run my fingers through my hair if necessary, give it a light spritz of hair spray, and I'm good to go for the day. When I remove the rods my hair looks extremely curly, but it calms down after half an hour. It will last me most of the day, relaxing as the day goes, but still looks good. With this technique I get a full day of beautiful hair. But after sleeping, the next day my curls are gone. Maybe it's because of my hair type. Or maybe it's because the rods were in a short time. I don't know.Personally I like loose waves, not ringlets, so I use the two larger sized rods. I wrap my hair around the rod the same way you would wrap it around a hot curling wand. If you don't know what I mean watch a youtube video on curling wands. It's a different way of wrapping the hair and gives a different result. It turns out like a wave instead of a ringlet. After wrapping my hair around the rod, I secure the end of my hair with a small hair tie, then bend the rod to hold it all in place. This insures it will not fall out. If I don't use the hair ties the rods end up sliding right out.These rods give me curl all the way up to my scalp, unlike my curing iron. I get so much more body when I use these rods. No heat damage is important to me as well. I love using these rods instead of hot curlers...as long as I don't mind looking like a silly fool for an hour, lol!I have long thin hair that is severely damaged from color processing. Remember, you will experience varying results depending on your hair type, technique used, and size of rods.

Received the product as expected and timely. I've never tried heat free curlers/rods so I was a bit skeptical on how this product would work on my thin, frizzy, and basically straight straight. I decided to try the product the same night it was received, again it's my first time trying so I have very little to no experience, I did look at a video or 2 online.- the product did have a light ruber/plastic scent but not strong or irritating at all. It's like new car smell that fades away. (Did not leave smell on my hair after I removed the rods)- I have long hair (waist lenghth) the 7in rods were long enough and they are ALL bendable including the purple and grey ones.- since there are only certain number of rods per size. I used the purple,grey, orange and blue rods. (I recommend using the smaller rods on back/bottom portion of head for tighter curls-I used the larger ones...not the best curl)*as you continue use, you will learn tricks on how to get the look you want. Can't wait to keep experimenting... just need more rods.-when taking off rods, I didn't have tangling or pulling/ripping of hair. I think the ones with that issue must've tangled their hair as they were putting on the rods.*Sectioning/parting your hair while putting the rods in will help also wrapping it with a scarf or a head cap if you're leaving in overnight will prevent tangling.I'll try to upload a pic.I did moisten my hair while putting in rods and used very little gel to help hold the curls. That might change to more gel or mouse depending on the longevity of the curls.

I'm absolutely in love with these rods. It took me a few uses to figure them out, and I ended up ordering a second set because I was only using the 2 largest-size rods for my long, fairly straight caucasian hair. I've had them for a few months now and they are still in perfect shape.The overnight routine I've developed is to wash my hair about 2 hours before bedtime. I let it air-dry until it's JUST damp, and then put the rollers in. I try not to have the hair overlap too much or it doesn't dry overnight. I roll the hair up on the rod and then bend it around the hair into a circle, so it ends up looking like I have doughnuts all over my head. The trick I learned is not to make them TOO tight up against my skull, because it's really uncomfortable to sleep in if they don't have a half inch or so of wiggle-room. I also use a blanket instead of a pillow that night, because I can shove it around and cushion the rods and my head better.When I wake up in the morning, I remove the rods and give a very light pass with a brush to soften and separate the curls, and follow up with hair spray. I can get 3 days of fantastically curly/wavy hair from this. Very happy with them!

Me gusto mucho el producto, la bolsa vino en perfectas condiciones. Se caen un poco, en la cuarta foto solo habia pasado 30 min, me los deje aprox 7 horas, si hay algun chino que quede flojo de la punta, le doy una pasada con la plancha para definir la punta, son faciles y cómodos de usar. Si los recomiendo, yo uso los azules adelante, los naranjas en medio y los morados y grises abajo o atrás para que queden más sueltos.

Does what it's meant to do. Love it

Les rods permettent de sculpter de jolies boucles sans chaleur. Sur cheveux souples, il suffit de les mettre le matin le temps de se préparer, et de les enlever au moment de partir ! Au besoin, un petit coup de sèche-cheveux avant de les enlever peut aider à les fixer plus rapidement. Un très bon produit !Attention cependant à bien nettoyer les rods à la réception, les miens étaient tous très poussiéreux...

Happy with these flexi rods. Good range of sizes. I had previously bought some from the $2 store, but these are more sturdy and better quality for sure.
