Will they work on chin length, thick hair? Would like a quicker way to style rather than curling iron or flat iron and would like soft curls.

If you have fine hair they would probably work, but if your hair is on the coarse side they probably won't.

With chin length hair you would probably need to use the medium sized rollers which would make the curls tighter. I use the jumbo size on my hair and I like the results. I hope this helps.

Yes - I would suggest experimenting with them a bit to get the hang of it. I first tried using the steamer when I was a teenager and it didn't work out well. Now this is my go-to styling method. Leave the curler on the steamer a bit (mybe 30 seconds) to warm up, wrap your hair, repeat. How long you leave the curlers in will depend on your hair. When you take them out, let your hair cool a couple minutes. Try different curler sizes and set different times. I love my steamer!!

My daughter has shoulder length, THICK chemically relaxed hair and using the jumbo rollers didn't curl her hair at all so I'm going to say probably not. With that being said, using the medium size roller may give you the curl you want but that could require a lot of rollers having such thick hair. I would suggest leaving the rollers in a bit longer than usual as that may help achieve your goal should you want to give it a try. I apologize for not being more definitive in my answer.

Yes, but roll them tight if your hair is thin. Also put gel on your hair and dry then roll. The gel helps thicken the hair shaft.

I have used them on thin hair & they stay longer & more securely than the colored ones or the more expensive ones. They are great on thin, salt & pepper or gray hair cause they're not as visible also. Hope this helps.

My hair is thick and it worked well. I think it works better when your hair is thicker. You may need more than one set though.

I have long, thick, straight hair and it did nothing for my hair :( I would suggest buying a good curling wand and brushing the curls out if u want larger wavy hair. These rollers did nothing for my hair and wouldn't even cover my whole head. Only half of it :(

I have very long thin hair. i have been using brushes by mason pearson for many many years and they are wonderful. so I assume they will work on your hair.

This set is very easy on hair. Dry with a hair dryer concentrating on the scalp area. Please use a spray curl setting lotion and comb through. Heat the rollers completely, set and wait 30 minutes. The rollers are exceedingly large, so expect a smooth body look but not much curl. I have asked the JF people to make these in a smaller size to fit on this heater. It would work. Best Regards, ME

it will work, but you would need to watch out for how long you are going to leave these in. if put in for too long, u would get goldi-lock curls and have a mini afro!

They are long enough for short hair. My hair is short. Maybe not as short as your mom's but I think it will work for her. I love the curling iron

If you have a lot of patience. This item is not easy to use, you need a third hand if you expect good results. Lots of tangling, would not recommend for thick curly hair- good luck

I'm wondering the same thing. I don't want to straighten my hair, just defrizz and loosen curls a bit. Has anyone tried it and cut out some steps? e.g. keeping in hair for less than 48 hours or cutting the blow dry/flat iron?

That's the thing. "Worth the money". It is worth the money, but don't expect them to be as nice as the 100 or 150gram hair that cost over 100.00. So if your hair is thick and you want to add length I suggest buying two packs. If your hair is thin and all you want to do is all volume then one pack will do.

Yes, it will work on Medium to thick hair; the iron goes up to 450 degrees. If you have long hair, it will take longer to flat Iron because the heating plates are smaller (1/2 inch).

I have very thick hair and works well. (I did have to take to my stylist and have her help me) My hair is only a little longer than chin length, no layering.

Jamie, I don't have thick hair but I do have fine thin frizzy hair and it works magic. Good Luck.

I have long hair, however, I believe they will work well on shorter hair. I use them on my bangs and they work well to add some fullness to them.
