Some tips when using a hot roller set include: - Brushing them out removes definition. Separate them with the fingers. - Light hairspray makes a long lasting curl. - Heat protectants reduce split ends and should be applied to the ends of the hair prior to rolling. - When rolling the hair, place the rollers near the head. Wrap the hair around the jumbo hot roller from the top to bottom. This provides an even curl rather than having a concentration around the ends. Also, use big hair clips on the outside of the roller to keep them in place. Some pins that come with the set can leave creases in the curls.
