1st Roller Set since my Big Chop


To start off I NEVER style my hair, I do a Wash 'n Go everyday b/c I'm lazy, don't know how to braid, my arms get tired easily & I'd rather do something that I actually feel like doing. But anyway I was inspired by ShellyBean729 to do a roller set on my hair yesterday & I think it would of turned out good if it weren't for a few things that messed it up, which I'll explain later.

Sectioning


After washing my hair I parted it into 5 sections with a rat tail comb & pinned them down with hair clips.
Products Used

All I used to roller set my hair were: a spray bottle filled with water 'n conditioner, EcoStyler gel, a wide tooth comb, hair clips & rollers.


This is what my hair looked like after taking a tiny section from out of my hair clips, spraying some water on it, rubbing some EcoStyler threw it & combing over it with the wide tooth comb.

The Rollers

The front section turned out the best b/c it was so small & I actually had some energy while doing it.


The sides came out loose b/c the rollers couldn't get tight enough around my short hair.




The back came out really bad, not only b/c I was really tired by then & couldn't see what I was doing, but also b/c my dryer didn't heat it up like it was supposed to.



When I was done putting the rollers in I put a plastic cap over my head & sat under my dryer.


It turned out that after sitting under my dryer for 2 hours & checking on my hair it hadn't dried the back of my hair at all!! The sides & front were mostly done, so I didn't bother sitting for another hour + the dryer started to over heat & stink, so I guess I'll need to buy a new dryer if I ever want to heat style my hair again.
Results



As I said before that front turned out great & the EcoStyler gel made my hair have a nice shine/glow to it.




The back had a lot of frizz & I'm glad I had no where important to go this weekend or I would of been embarrassed.

Final Thoughts: Even though my hair came out half done & I found out I needed a new dryer, I'm happy I tried to do this & do like the way the front came out + when I woke up this morning w/o wrapping my hair, it still looked the same & I had no frizz or messed up curls. Def. might do this again when I have a new dryer & free time.
