My hair also goes flat very fast unless the weather is extremely cold and dry. These rollers have given me more body than anything I have every tried when I use the ionic setting.

I have shoulder length hair and this was too big for my hair. I think for long hair and loose wavvy curls it would be perfect but my hair isn't long enough for it to even curl on the underside. The top where I have layers gets a nice wave, but it's just too big for shorter hair. But that is not the fault of the curling iron, I just thought with shorter hair it would keep it from being TOO curly, but alas I was wrong.

I have 4c shoulder length, and if you use a good heat protectant and a lower heat setting it'll be okay! I don't go higher than 15 and my hair gets straight and I don't use a HP like I should lol good luck!

My hair is shoulder length. The time you keep the iron on your hair should determine how tight your curls are. If you don't want a tight curl, less time on the iron

This is an actual treatment, that takes about 2 hours to complete on my shoulder length hair, and last about 2-3 months. You definitely need someone to help you with it, it's not a one person job.

Yes I now have shoulder length layered hair and it still does a great job. The vintage curls it can give look great any length. I'd you want tighter curls you just pin them up till they cool down. But I normally just curl and go at this length.

I have very thick hair as well. It is not as long as yours however. Mine is just shoulder length. I use conditioner only on my ends and this tends to give a better "lift" to the hair on top of my head. After I blow dry my hair, I spray Silk Elements Mega Silk Heat Protection spray on the ends. Then roll my hair in very small sections. Make sure the rollers are fully heated and leave them in your hair until they are completely cool. I have very nice, firm curls that last at least a couple of days. Might have to touch up with just one row of curlers on day 2 and 3, but overall, I think they do an excellent job. Hope this helps.

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?

I have long hair too. my hair is almost touching my butt :) I bought BIO IONIC StyleWinder..... but I almost never used it... it works fine, but I wanted big curls. If you want big curls, I recommend this one! Conair Xtreme Instant Heat Jumbo And Super Jumbo Hair Setter with Super Clips, Amazon Exclusive, 12 countThis makes your hair very pretty with big curls :) and is very very easy to use

I have hair that is heavily highlighted and this worked fine on my hair. The only place I really saw any damage was the hair right around my face that is very fine and fragile from so much highlighting.I have pretty fine hair that is shoulder length, and I was able to get 2.5 treatments out of this system! Just be sure to flat iron, flat iron, flat iron. It only works if you really get this stuff sealed into the hair, which typically is 5-8 passes on 1/8"-1/4" sections of hair.Good luck!

I had the exact same problem and this one really works, plus the curls are made five times as fast as when you use a straighter! When it comes down to it, it all depends on your hair, but I personally found that this worked so much better.

Depends on your hair type. My hair is dead straight and even with lots of hairspray the curls dont hold. 3 hours max.

I think your rollers are too small. I bought some velcro like rollers very large, almost too large for the clips. You won't get the bend. I bought the clips for my heated rollers, but they are too thin for my thin hair. They are heavy, too, so the clips don't work very well. I experienced the bend because the rollers were too small.

It works really well, I would say 20 mins flat to get all of it done. I have thick hair as well and I was surprised at how well it works.

Yes, It does. My hair is fine...about shoulder length and it works very well. I think you will be very satisfied with it. Holds curl much, much better than the hot rollers.

I have waist long hair, and the same thing was happening to me. Try putting the roller closer to your scalp and rolling the rest onto the roller from there, instead of the conventional "start at the end and roll your way up" method. Good luck!

I have long hair, and so do two of my coworkers who bought it. The third coworker has a little longer than shoulder length hair and it worked well on hers. Anything shorter, and I don't know. Sorry.
