Which specific rollers do you use and would you rate them?

I am considering whether to go for heated rollers, or regular rollers...and dont want to buy anything that doesnt work!

I have long, very thick hair, that is wavy/curly when scrunched.

I have very thick hair too and love heated rollers (even though I'm not very good at using them!) and I use these which are great http://www.amazon.co.uk/BaByliss-...hen&qid=1237805502&sr=1-2

If you look on ebay you can usually find some good deals as lots of people sell them because they don't use them xxxx

Pretty sure I have these ones aswell and they're quite good, my hair's curly anyway but it never curls the right way.
I think if you go to one of Ruby's workshops there's a bit about how to put rollers in, apparently there's a knack to it.

I will also support the heated rollers.

It just takes practice CrimbleFairy, and not trying to use too much hair on them.

I think the problem is I did one of Ruby's classes over a year ago and only recently got the rollers so I have no idea what I'm doing with them! Sometimes it looks fine and other times I just look like I've been electrocuted! I'll keep going though!  Very Happy
