I am a roller "virgin". I have never used them. How do you heat them up? Are they easy to use? Will they work on fine hair? Is one set enough?

They are electric and very easy to use. I have very fine hair and these give me lots of body and curls . One set for travel is enough .They are very light weight.T

you just plug it in(little suitcase where all rollers are) and it will heat up by itself . Very easy to use , i have long hair till the middle of my back, very straight and heavy, so i am satisfied with result,only curls do not long last, i guess i need stronger spray. I bought 2 sets for myself, but if you have short hair, it will be fine with one set :)

IMO the rollers heat to a way too hot temperature. They can burn your fingers, your head, and your hair. I have fairly fine hair and they burned it to the point it broke off.

yes that is enough because the steam rollers curl your hair quickly. I have fine hair and as fast as I put them all in I remove them. It depends on your hair thickness and how much time you have. Carole

I would like these better if there was one more roller!!! I like them, but I find myself trying to put more hair from a different section into the rollers to curl it all at the same time. It has not been a big deal, really. Sometimes I plug in my regular curling iron too to curl the piece or small pieces that I couldn't get in the roller. I like this set because it heats up quickly and it is small enough to throw in a suitcase for travel. Hope that helps. Not the perfect set, but I like it.

I love these rollers. I have been using versions of them for years. Basically you have to let the roller steam until it is warm and slightly damp. You can only do one at a time. However, once you get into a rhythm it doesn't take longer than traditional heat roller. I steam, take of the roller and put another one on the steamer while I roll my hair with the first. My hair is midback so the roller doesn't get too damp by leaving it on while I roll. If you have shorter hair, you probably will just want to leave the rollers on for less time. The ionic steam is SO GENTLE on the hair. And the shine is sensational. Plus, the curl lasts longer than with traditional heat rollers. I love these rollers.

There are 3 sizes of rollers. There are 8 large, 6 medium, and six small. I have never been able to curl my hair with these all at once. You can order more of a certain size from Conair.com, but I'm unsure as to how many you could fit inside the heater as each slot is meant to hold a certain size of roller. My hair is naturally curly but will not hold the curl from these rollers. I would suggest looking online, perhaps on YouTube, on ways to curl your hair with a straightener. If you roll your hair into a pin curl and clamp it between the plates on a straightener, you get the same effect and a longer hold. I wouldn't recommend these.

It's honestly depends on the size of curls you want with so many different options I use only the ones I have available all the big ones work great for nice big girls. I have Brazilian raw 7a unprocessed hair and have not used heat one for curls. I also have people ask me daily how I get my curls to stay all day and not fall I always say Flexi Rods

No they aren't as high as the rollers but believe me the rollers are hot. Just did my hair with the hot rollers and the curls look fantastic and when I comb them out and style it, well it looks really good. I have had them a few months now and I really am glad I bought them. I don't think anyone could go wrong buying them.

There are six of the 1.25" and 4 of the 1.5" The rest are super small. Wouldn't recommend them if your hair is thick. The rollers dont get hot enough. Suggest you look at the more high end ones.

They re to BE used on dry hair. Use a dryer any which Way (no need to Style) abd Then put The rollers in.

Make sure your hair is dry to begin with. Let roller sit on steamer for 10 seconds so it has plenty of steam to get through all the hair. Roll it good and tight. Put the cap on the steamer for a couple seconds to get it hot and then clamp it on the roller. Then your hair is being steamed from both directions. Let it set in the rollers 20-30 min. The longer the better. Once you take the rollers out, put your hair dryer on the lowest setting and on COOL. The cool hair will set the curls so they will last longer. I have thick hair too and the weight of it can pull out the curls. You can also lightly hair spray the curls and use the cool setting on hair dryer to give the curls extra support. I LOVE these curlers. Can be a pain to get in the back side of your head but man the results are so worth it! My hair dresser has me bring my set every time because she loves the results too! It seems like they wouldn't work that well but they really do as long as you don't take them out too soon and you roll them tight. Good luck!

I have fine, but thicker hair. They stay in, but I have to hold the curlers to get it rolling sometimes for a long time, and it hurts/burns a lot. For your hair, I think a curling iron would be better maybe? With long teeth?

It comes with 3 or 4 different sizes, I believe like 8 rollers in each size, from jumbo,lg,med sm . My hair is waist length and thick, so I use them all. Except the small ones. I think curls look better when they are in various sizes. But my hair also curls easy. But I think you will like them. I purchased because they had more rollers than the other ones. Hope this helps.

Yes, you have to handle them very carefully. Frankly, I'm sorry I ever bought this product and have used it only a couple if times. Not only are the rollers hard to handle, the clips leave "dents" in my hair no matter how carefully I try to avoid them. The end result is you never get a smooth look, you get hair with kinks.

I can relate! I had to roll the very tight to my scalp and try to lean my head back so that they wont flip to my face and fall. It is either my hair is not long enough for these rollers for the clips to hold or I need bigger clips for this job. However, while using these rollers, I managed to roll my hair, trying to achieve an inwards curl, by fixing the clip holders towards my scalp, parallel or next to my scalp. Not keeping the clip holders on top, but placing them under the roller. I hope that made sense! Another good idea is using youtube for some good tips. At least you will get a visual guide instead.

Yes! I have very fine hair. You just have to put more hair in the rollers and use the smaller ones.

Maybe you could try only leaving the curlers on the steam for a very short time and use smaller amounts of hair on each roller? I don't ever have this problem. I have very fine straight hair.

I bought another set. I heat up one set, and as soon as I take off one heated roller I put on one of the unheated rollers and close the lid. By the time I use all the first round of heated rollers, the second round is heated.
