Never have any success. Since I grew up practically with a curling iron in hand ;), if I'm rushed I'll pull that out and quickly set my hair with the iron and some pin curl clips. <br />~xoxo, CoriLynnCoriLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17066746150136332439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-46087342216452178102013-09-12T12:16:17.992-04:002013-09-12T12:16:17.992-04:00I have a Marilyn short cut and pin curl most night...I have a Marilyn short cut and pin curl most nights. I find they work better on my hair than heated rollers. <br />One tip I have founf though is to water down my setting lotion... I have a small spray bottle I fill with about an inch of setting lotion and then fill with water. <br />I then spritz each section as I go and then an over all spray once I am done. A slumber net on over night, brush out in the moring with a liberal spray of hairspray and it stays in all day. <br /><br />One tip I did learn the hard way with heated rollers - letting them cool COMPLETELY before taking them out<br />And another general tip - not being frightened of brushing your curls... if set properly they won't disappear. <br />Foxy Coxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01007409985048716911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-285457991389634792013-09-11T20:29:57.776-04:002013-09-11T20:29:57.776-04:00I have straight hair that never holds a curl (when...I have straight hair that never holds a curl (when young I tried a perm as well and it fell badly). Hot rollers, curling wands/irons, nothing, though wet sets work to a degree. I finally tried a flat iron and lo and behold, curls. Curls that last. Seems counterintuitive to use a flat iron for curls doesn't it? But you can curl with them.<br /><br /> I have to use some product and the curls are looser, but natural looking. I use a fairly high heat, and use a heat protectant of course, because on lower heat settings my hair won't curl.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189748246152454950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-86668340126660169612013-09-11T09:45:29.919-04:002013-09-11T09:45:29.919-04:00Wow, I feel your pain in a small way. The only way...Wow, I feel your pain in a small way. The only way my hair will hold a curl is if I do a wet-set with lots of product (usually "Just So" gel, in the Ethnic or African-American isle of the local drug store here in Canada). And of course too much product weighs my hair down - I have fine hair, but a lot of it - so the style never stays in until day's end. A perm is the only way to get curly hair for me, but even that comes out quickly (except for the ends, the most damaged part of anyone's hair).<br />Oddly enough, my hairdresser says that my hair is getting thicker in texture, it's not as fine as it used to be...part of being over 40 years old I guess. Perhaps your hair has changed since you were a teen, especially after having two terrific children ;)<br /><br /><br />Figures my first comment would be a long and windy one! *lol* Good luck on finding a solution *crosses fingers*<br />Mugsy's in Stitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05872379684514419344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-36944308639851987872013-09-10T12:15:17.761-04:002013-09-10T12:15:17.761-04:00you lucky duck!!

I went to a stylist to get a perm once when I was a teenager and my hair wouldn't take to the perm! :PBrittany_Va-VoomVintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377031677999463069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1085997960024984026.post-61945365888085801442013-09-10T12:13:32.699-04:002013-09-10T12:13:32.699-04:00I have very curly hair and love the style of the s...I have very curly hair and love the style of the short hair with the side part curls (top photo, bottom left) my hair does that wavy thing too. The only reason I would use curlers is to smooth out my curls and at the moment I don't have any curlers, I air dry my hair and sometimes put a anti-frizz on it. I think I may have finally found a hairdresser that really knows how to cut curls. Anyway, I am no help in recommending a curler set.

My hair slips out of newer ones. The one's I have have a brown cloth(?) core. It's kind of like a felt (?). Not really sure what you would call it, but I love them and they still work.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16438899794902300142noreply@blogger.com
