Once upon a time we thought that hot rollers were only for grannies and librarians. Lonely old ladies who just didn’t know there were easier ways to get cute curls. Turns out, grannies and librarians are pretty darn intelligent and hot rollers are both simple and effective. Here is a guide that’s great for both first-timers as well as the advanced users.



Leave the rollers in for 10 minutes for soft waves or up to 30 minutes for strong defined. This is a great time to apply your makeup! Then simply unravel and finger style to get the look you want. The Memory Mist that we applied before we began will hold your hair style but if you feel it’s necessary you can add a light spray of your favorite hairspray.That’s it! Super easy, right? We hope you try this because it’s such a fantastic way to get curls and waves and just as simple as using a curling wand or iron!
