Salon Heatless Flexible Hair Rollers Curlers 42-pack 7" Soft Foam Flexi Twist Curling Rods for Short Long Hair

I can't believe I waited so long to buy these beauties. These curlers are incredibly easy to use and they give you gorgeous curls that last for days. I have tried every heatless curling method there is -- sleep styler, braiding, boho headband wrapping, and every other tutorial on youtube -- and this is the only one that ACTUALLY works.The set comes in a nice zippered carrying case with seven different sizes of rollers. I only used the two biggest sizes (blue and pink).The first time I tried these, I wrapped them from the bottom like traditional rollers. They're easy to hold in place, once you figure out which way to crimp the ends. (Hint: if you're rolling away from your face, as most of you probably will be, you'll need to bend the edges up into a "U" shape. If you're rolling toward your face, you need to put them the other way with the ends pointing down.) I slept in them and had incredibly bouncy, Shirley Temple style curls. I actually spent some time pulling on them to get the curls to straighten out - they were way too sproingy for a woman in her thirties, ha!The second time I adjusted my rolling technique because I wanted looser curls. After a nighttime shower, with wet hair, I held the roller against my head and wrapped the hair around the barrel away from my face. This technique meant that the ends of my hair were sticking out a little, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The curls looked much more natural. (When I curled them the first time and the ends were fully curled, it looked a little crazy.) I pulled the curlers out in the morning and I had gorgeous, loose curls that looked like I did them with a curling iron (it was the same look I get from spending 30 minutes with my 1" curling iron). I nearly wept with joy. No more heat styling for me!!They're not exactly the most comfortable thing to sleep in, but if you get the placement right (cluster them around your ears and on top of your head, leaving the back of your head bare) you'll be ok with a squishy pillow. For the record, I had no issues sleeping with them, but I'm a back sleeper.I think these are incredibly easy to use and you should have no problem with them, even if you're a hair styling neophyte. That being said, while I'm not a professional hairstylist, I know my way around a curling iron and am pretty good at making my hair look how I want using styling tools. I'm just lazy and don't want to spend an hour doing my hair every morning.The photos are me with sproingy curls pulled out a bit, then two days later (!), then the final, looser curls that I'm so in love with.

I absolutely love these heatless rollers! As someone with thick hair, I’ve always struggled to find a curling method that gives me long-lasting, bouncy curls without causing damage. These rollers are a game changer — they’re easy to use, comfortable to sleep in, and deliver beautiful results. I wake up with soft, voluminous curls that hold all day, and my hair feels healthier without the constant heat styling. If you have thick hair and want effortless curls, I highly recommend giving these a try!

I decided to get the Tifara Flexible Curling Rods to see what they were capable of. I have long hair that's somewhat thick, and I questioned if 42 rods would be enough to roll every section of hair. (It was. I used 36!)Tifara has helpful instructions printed on the bottom of the clear carry bag. Definitely helpful, but not helpful enough for me. There's more than one way to use these flexible rods, depending upon the look you're going for. I went to YouTube and found several videos devoted to this subject. My biggest issue with flexible curling rods is how to bend them so that the rod remains close to the head.The end of each rod has a white plastic cap. You have to be careful not to let your hair get wrapped into that area, because hair tangles up in it easily.I decided to try putting some "Unite Boing Moisture Curl Cream" on a stand of hair, securing it on a rod, spraying Joico Heat Hero spray on it and seeing if the curl could be produced faster. It can, but the trade off for this is your using heat, which defeats the purpose of a heatless curl.Some people claim they can sleep with these in their hair. I'm not one of them. I thought they hurt. I persevered for the sake of this review, and kept the Tifara rods in all night on my wet hair.The next day, I carefully removed each rod. They definitely do the job! I used different rolling techniques and different rod sizes so I could see how they turned out. You can produce several different looks. The curls felt soft and springy. I was able to use my fingers to divide thicker curls into multiple thinner ones.I didn't expect the curls that were produced to hold all day, but they did. In fact, they outlasted my willingness to go without washing my hair. The curls stayed when I used a wide toothed comb or my fingers to style them. When I used a brush, the curls became much less defined, but they left me with a ton of waves and volume.Bottom line: the Tifara 7" Flexible Curling Rods are a fun way to experiment with styling your hair and they are capable of producing many different looks. Although sleeping with the rods in can help save your hair from the damage caused by heat, breakage from getting your hair tangled is possible if you don't use caution. I recommend these if your looking for a fun way to experiment with your hair, (or if you live in an area that has a lot of wind storms with power outages and hate your hair being straight!)Good product and worth the money.

So easy to use, comfortable to wear and produce nice results. I like the variety of sizes and there are plenty of rollers in each size. Great find.
