Conair Double Ceramic Hot Rollers for Long, Medium, and All Hair - Hair Curler - Hair Roller Clips Included - 1 1/2-inch Rollers

My hair always looks better when I curl it, and having this on vacations is really great for me. It works very well and heats up quickly and curls my hair nicely. It comes with white spring clips, but I prefer it to use with the metal clips. It is also easier to travel with when you got the metal clips because they fit inside the curling case.

I have shoulder lenght hair and these curlers are the perfect size to make waves and volume galore! The curlers heat up fast. The flocked material holds the curlers in place while you put the clips on. Works much better than my old slippery ones that didn't have flocking. Highly recommend!

The clips to hold the rollers are total crap, but the heating device and rollers themselves work well and made my long thick hair fall in luscious wide soft curls, although I wanted more of a blowout look. These are still not wide enough on my long hair (about 8" past my shoulders) to create the blowout look, though they look nice. It is more of a soft wide curl look instead.I'm not sure if I'm going to keep these now because I looked on amazon and there are no standard metal pin jumbo roller clips available that have good reviews, and I'm also not sure how else to hold these on my head in a non-frustrating way. I was able to barely get them to stay on my head, but a lot of the hair escaped the rolls, and they were very messy. I couldn't get them to be neat and tidy for anything. Also, I thought it would be easy to put all my hair on 5 rollers, but it wasn't at all since most of the hair was coming off of the curlers and the clips aren't worth a damn. The only reason my top curls stayed on my head was that I tried not to move my head at all. And the only way the side curlers could possibly stay in was that I used my huge sturdy round jaw hair clips that I already had to try to secure them to the hair closest to my scalp, so that was quite uncomfortable because these rollers are not light weight. I really want to keep them because I like the effect I think they could have, but it is so frustrating to use them, because they are very very difficult to secure, that I'm not sure if it's worth it. I may try buying a sturdy shower cap to put over them to hold them in place better, but I was worried about the heat melting the plastic of the cap. Why don't they make these with the standard metal roller pins to secure them? It would be so much better!Edit: I found in another review that there is a seller selling super jumbo metal pin clips that fit these on ebay, a seller called tresica, and clips that are 1.5" wide and will apparently fit these 2" rollers. I'll update when I get them and see how they work - hope this info helps someone! :)Edit 2: I got those metal pin clips from ebay and they fit these 2 inch rollers perfectly. They do add to the cost of these, but without them I can not get the darn things to stay in my hair, so it was necessary for me. When I used them in combination with the provided claw clips they stayed perfectly in place while I did stuff to get ready. When I used just the pins, they stayed pretty well too, though not quite as firmly as the combination worked. Hope that helps! :)

UPDATE 11/07/2016Still LOOOOOOVE these and highly recommended. I actually just bought another one, warehouse deals for under $10!!! It takes 3 for my hair, I have fine hair but a lot of it and it is long, almost to the middle of my back. I do not know why people complain about the holders, if it starts to slip just put the holder on the side of the rod rather than on top in middle like they should be, or go to your local drug store and get a set of the same kind but smaller, and they are not that expensive, like $5 - $6 for 5, they hold even better and mine are purple in colour. I had some holders from another hot roller set with regular sized curlers that I use.If you use styling tools most of the time, like me, make sure to get a protector for your hair that is not greasy, oily or heavy. CVS has a leave in heat protector that is a cream but it does not weigh down the hair, and you only need a little from the ears down on your hair.The fullness is incredible!!! TONS of LIFT at the ROOT!!! I also use the following and for best results ( I was a hair technician for 15 years then put my way through college):1. STOP buying expensive shampoo, you do not need it, I just use a nice clean shampoo WITHOUT oils or harsh detergents, YOU DO NOT NEED a special shampoo no matter what the hair as the suds take those ingredients away and that is what you want, clean hair otherwise it will be flat. Just get one that is not harsh, I use Garneir or other drugstore brands that are for normal hair and are not with harsh detergents. If you wash with coated shampoos, you will not get fullness as your hair is weighed down and not really clean.~~~~~~~~~~~~Also, DO NOT GET the shampoo and conditioner in one or ones that you use in the reverse order, this is a gimmick. A $5 - $7 price range is more than enough for a great shampoo.2. DO INVEST in good conditioners and styling aids. SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE!! I use an argan oil based conditioner as I really like the shine, olive oil is also great.~~~~~~~~~~~In fact once a month put extra virgin olive oil in your wet hair, cover with cap for at least an hour then wash out. You will have a residue so I do this at night after dinner when I am not going somewhere and the next day when you take a shower wash again and condition and style as usual.I use Peter Copolla Argan Oil Condition, you can get a huge bottle for about $15 at CVS when they have it. I am also a die hard fan of Redken, but they are priceyDO NOT condition scalp, your hair is new there and putting conditioner there will just weight down your hair an it will lie flat on the scalp, condition from about the ears down and rinse really well after about 5 minutes. With short hair, use all over but just a little bit.3. STYLING AIDS!! Spend money wisely, but buy what works with YOUR and stick with it. What works for me is Bumble and Bumble "Styling Lotion", which is really pricey, but I love it as you do not feel anything in the hair, and it looks like water. I like my hair touchable and silky but full, not a helmet head so I also do not use hairspray unless I am fixing my hair in a updo for a special evening occasions or in a french twist. Even then I use a very light spray. After you towel dry add the Bumble and Bumble or other styling lotion, but you can use anything you like. I do not like mousse etc.. as again it makes the hair crispy and flat and feel like cheap doll hair. Blow dry just by turning your head upside down and comb through with finger for added fullness, or air dry.4. HEAT CURLERS. USE A ROOT SPRAY ONLY IN ROOTS, I use whatever fits my budget and not a mousse but you can use what works for you. There is a different between a root lifter and mousse, there are some root lifers that are like a foam, but make sure the nozzle is small and precisely lays the lifter only at the root as the foams are sticky. Spray only the roots for more control and volume. Take a section of hair, use the root lift then place heated curler in hair section, repeat until done and wait 20 minutes (longer if you want). Take curlers out and either comb with fingers or a pick. You can also use a brush if you want for just a full look with no wave.5. BUY "Big Sexy Hair Get Layered". This is KEY!! I love this stuff, you spray on a layer of hair a when styling and you get this incredible fullness and still very touchable. I do not know what it is but I just bought 3 more bottles in case they stop making it. This is great stuff and I hope they do not stop making it as I just found it. I pay $10 a bottle of 8oz spray.Viola!! Beautiful, bouncy, full hair and it stays that way even through the next day.MUST HAVES:1. CLEAN SHAMPOO2. GOOD CONDITIONER3. BUMBLE AND BUMBLE STYLING LOTION or ANOTHER KINDBumble and Bumble Styling Lotion (8 Ounces)4. BIG SEXY HAIR GET LAYERED SPRAY, A MUST HAVE!!!!Sexy Hair Get Layered Flash Dry Thickening Hair Spray, 8 Ounce5. A GOOD ROOT LIFT that HITS JUST THE ROOTS.~~~~Currently I am using "Sally Hershberger Supreme Lift Root Spray", but I use others also as long as they are not sticky.6. HEAT STYLING PROTECTOR FOR HAIR, IF STRAIGHTENING ~ THE STRAIGHTENER WILL ALREADY HAVE THIS IN IT.If you straighten, I do also, you can still use all of the above except for the root lift.As you can tell, I am into having shiny, beautiful, bouncy, full, wavy hair that is touchable, I HATE HELMET HEAD HAIR!!! It looks ridiculous and hair is supposed to move. Otherwise it looks like a god awful wig!! I also love super shiny straight hair.My hair is fine but I have a lot of it, thank God! It is also longer than most. I also colour my hair with Redken Shades in a bright red orange wash out as I have dark, mahogany coloured hair and then right afterwards use Paul Mitchel Cellophanes in clear for extra shine. You should use the Cellophanes,, dry your hair and then go out into the syn, your hair looks like diamonds!!ISSUE with CELLOPHANES: There are two clear, one is totally clear and the one to get and the other Cellophane is a blue based clear, stay away from the blue, it will state in on the bottle. You wash your hair, put in the cellophane, cover with cap and sit under dryer for 25 minutes, then take off the cap and let cool for 5 minutes, wash as usual. Must use a dryer, you can get one on AMAZON for about $20. I do this 3 to 4 times a year.Sebastian Professional Cellophanes, Shine Clear "Pack of 2" by VidimearHINT: IT IS WEEKLY or MONTHLY CONDITIONING WITH A REALLY GOOD CONDITION THAT MAKES HAIR SHINY AND HEALTHY AND YOUR DIET.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~LOVE these, bought 2 from AMAZON WAREHOUSE at $9.99 each!! Give my hair a beautiful bounce and a really full look without all the curls. I do use all 10 and just use a really large curling iron for the little bit of hair left. I leave in my hair for 20 minutes and it lasts all day, even the next day still looks good. I also use Bumble and Bumble Styling Lotion which I love as it gives me extra control and does not feel like anything is in the hair at all. Also use Big and Sexy Volumizing Spray, which I use after words, it is a dry spray and adds extra volume without the feeling of hair spray. In addition, since I have fine hair, I use a root lifter on the top of the head with the curlers to give me that extra oomph.LOVE LOVE LOVE

Pros: compact size for travel, heats up quicklyCons: does not get hot enough to curl my thick, long hair.My comparison is my old set of Conair rollers that were 15 years old. Those suckers would get so hot I could burn my fingertips if I left them heating for 15 minutes. Curl would last for days!
