42pcs No Heat Hair Curlers Heatless Spiral Curlers with 2 Sets Styling Hooks 22inch/55cm Magic Hair Rollers No Heat Damage DIY Styling Kit for Women Kids Long Medium Hair

My hair is naturally a weird texture mix of curls and waves and straight pieces and it’s only gotten more oddly textured since I’ve dyed it and used some heat tools on it for years. But now I’m growing my hair out for my wedding and decided I’d like to not use heat products any more.It comes with 2 of the sticks to pull your hair through, they are in three pieces each, but I decided to make one only 2 pieces long and the other three pieces long.You can use a dryer with them if you really are in a rush and it works the same! But if you have thick hair, like me, it takes a very long time to put the curlers in, because you gotta make sure you put tiny sections in so that it doesn’t knot your hair up.I had to order 2 packs because of my hair being so thick, and once my undercut grows out I think I’ll have to have another pack!What I do is I make sure my hair is wet or at least damp then i’ll add some hair oil of my choosing to all of my hair then I’ll section my hair into 2 at the top, preplanning my hair sectioning as I do, and I leave out a layer of the underside of my hair and start in the back, I find it’s easier if you start in the back and work forward for each layer you do.Then with my bottom layers out, I grab the stick and put it through the curler so that the curler is on it and then I hook my hair through the stick and then with my thumb I hold open the hole on the curler while also helping keep the hair in the hook until the opening of the hook is safely in the curler enough then I let go completely of the hook and just press the hole of the curler so that it stays open while I pull the hook and my hair through the other end slowly. I noticed if I go too fast or don’t hold the hole of the curler open, it’s more likely to pull my hair and knot it. It sounds complicated but it’s not once you get the hang of it. Plus it so far seems way better for hair than the heat stuff. I just do the same process over and over again and if any part of my hair is a bit dry before I get to it I just add a little water into my hand then put it in that section, I think a mist bottle or spray bottle would be better though, I’m just too lazy to buy. Takes me probably an hour and a half to put in? Not sure.You CAN sleep in them, but it takes a little adjustment. I like to put them in after I shower so I typically sleep right after that, my cats like to chew on the curlers so I gotta cover them up with a towel or blanket, so it makes it dry slower that way. But if I put them in my hair and just do stuff around the house for about 4-5 hours it’s dry then (I never check before that many hours because I’m worried it’ll not be dry but it probably is dry within an hour or two, realistically)I put a bandana around my face so I can tie the curlers out of the way. They are a little heavy when you have a bunch of them on so they get annoying.Overall, I really like them. Only have used them for a week or so though, hopefully I don’t go bald.Oh, and usually my hair stays curly until I brush it out or shower. When I brush it it just looks a little less curly kind of wavy. I tried to see how long they last when I’m sleeping and i made it three days without wetting them again and the curls were still good just got oily :( that’s a me problem tho.TLDR: works like it should. Takes a while to put in. Kind of annoying to sleep in. I love them.

Even after watching several how-to videos, it was still not great. It's really challenging and I had enough experience going in thinking it would be way easier than it was. I grew up in my mother's salon and have used every single curling method known since I was tiny. So when I saw this I decided I had to try it. The wands come in three sections each and that have to be clicked together to make the 2 long hook rods. They come undone very easily and become a big headache quick. If I were going to keep it, I would probably glue them together with E6000, but then you can't put them back in their carrying case. And did I mention they were flimsy. Each and every time they fell apart my hair got tangled and was yanked very painfully. You have to use the smallest amount of hair and twist and twist it very well, hoping that from the back of your head you can get that crochet like needle to grab your hair in just the right way. You have to be insanely precise, any mistake and you're going to be in pain and tangled. And it took well over an hour to do my entire head.Sleeping with them was much more difficult than I thought. Even with a great bonnet, it hurt and the rods pulled on my hair throughout the night. I would finally manage to fall asleep on my stomach and as I would move, the rods would pull and yank my hair and wake me up. It was a very long night.Taking them off was the only easy thing and the style was just okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. It was nothing I haven't achieved with much simpler, less painful methods and it didn't last long. At that point I thought it couldn't get any worse and thencame shampoo day. I had so many knots and tangles. I cried as I tried to rake through my hair with my no poo shampoo. If I could have given it zero stars or even negative numbers, I would have. Absolutely worst experience of any of my Amazon purchases. The only redeeming quality in this entire situation is the return policy. I don't ever want to see these things again. I'm traumatized.I'm going to try standard rollers because I don't remember them being anywhere near as painful. I think I'm going to return them.

Received timely and in a cute little bag

I tried this as an alternative to heat styling and it works pretty well. Not as flawless at the roots as you might like but the curls turn out beautiful. Only downside is i can't sleep in them with my sensitive scalp and they have to be dry before the curls holds so keep that in mind. Also, ladies with thick hair might want more of these, i need every single one to style my hair and you cant overfill them because you cant pull too much hair through.

I bought these curlers for colorguard hair & practiced a few times in the days before my first show. It takes several tries to figure it out, and the first few times it took almost 2 hours to do my whole head. Once you figure out the right placement it’s not horrible though, just tedious and a bit tiring for my arm. The key is TINY pieces, I don’t have that much hair but I just ordered another set so I could do smaller pieces and still get it all done at once. My biggest issue was that about 4 curler pieces came with rips in them so they were unusable (hair would get stuck) and one of the curling rods came with the end that connects to the top part damaged. It looks like it had been snapped. I bought the one with 2 rods specifically so I could have someone help me and we could get them done quick the night before a show but it’s unusable. I tried taping it together and it kept coming apart. I didn’t return it because I needed to use the curlers and didn’t have time to wait for another set to come in. I’m hoping hot glue will work because I really need the extra rod. The curls were fantastic but it doesn’t seem like the best quality since it came damaged. If you’re willing to spend a lot of time and effort putting them in, I say go for it, the results are great! They’re not for everyone or for daily use but they’re nice tight and well formed curls that work great for my purpose, aka colorguard. (I put them in the night before with mousse and damp hair and wear a massive bonnet to keep all the curlers in. It’s not the most comfortable to sleep on but sleeping on a squishmallow helps!)
