I got a request to film a tutorial on how I’ve been roller setting my wigs, to get bouncy soft curls. I used to roller set my hair back in the day when I was relaxed, but it was my hairstylist who suggested that I roller set my wigs as well for smoother curls (she had actually roller set it for me when she had originally styled it).
3 Keys To A Bomb Roller set
1) To make sure that you comb out each section so that the hair is smooth when you roll it.
2) To keep the hair damp (especially the ends) while rolling it
3) To allow the hair to dry COMPLETELY before you take the rollers out.
I really like roller setting my hair, as it allows me to cut down on heat styling (I can put the wand curler down y’all) and I can “pre style” my wigs before I apply them. I’m a woman on the move, so the more I can do ahead of time the better.
What I Use
2 Packages of 2″ Magnetic Rollers
2 Packages of 1 3/4 Magnetic Rollers
A package of slightly smaller rollers for the front
Lotta Body Styling Lotion
Wide Tooth Comb
Fine Tooth Comb
My fine tooth comb is a carbon comb, because I can also use it for the comb and chase method when I straighten my hair (carbon combs can withstand the heat and stay next to your flat iron while you straighten your hair).
360 Mist Spray Bottle
Hot Comb
KeraCare Wax Stick
Sallys GVP Version of the Sebastian Shaper Plus Hold Hairspray
