Easy Steps in Using Hair Rollers
Start with clean hair.
Before you start styling your hair, wash it first. Use a shampoo-and-conditioner duo that will help make your hair smooth and easy to style.
We recommend TRESemmé Keratin Smooth KERA10 Shampoo. It has KERA10 Protein Complex that penetrates hair up to 10 layers deep for nourishment. It also gives your hair 10 salon benefits in one wash! These include making your hair soft, smooth, and shiny. It also calms frizz, provides heat protection, and helps strengthen your hair.
Pair TRESemmé Keratin Smooth KERA10 Shampoo with TRESemmé Keratin Smooth KERA10 Serum Conditioner. Aside from KERA10 Protein Complex, this conditioner also has oleo serum that deeply moisturizes your hair.
Divide and spray.
take a section of hair from your hairline up to your crown. Lift it, then spritz hairspray near your roots to give your strands some grip.
Get rollin'.
Place one roller at the tips of the section of hair that you took in the previous step. Roll this section of hair inwards.
Roll and blow-dry.
Repeat this step until you’ve wrapped all sections of your hair around rollers. Don’t forget to spritz hairspray on each section of your hair.
Then blow-dry your hair for a few minutes while your rollers are on. This will help set your curls. Set your blow-dryer to medium heat to minimize hair damage.
Take them out.
Once you feel that you have blow-dried your hair enough, gently remove each roller. Avoid tugging or pulling to prevent hair breakage. Also, you wouldn’t want to mess up the shape of your curls, would you?
The Result:
Ta-da! Now, your hair looks bouncy. It also has added texture, so you can say bye to limp and lifeless hair.

Wrapping your hair around hair rollers can help define your layers. You can spray hair wax on the tips of your tresses after you remove your hair rollers for more texture and definition.
4. Long Curly Hair
If you want tighter, more defined waves, use smaller ones and wrap sections of your hair around them for a longer period of time. You can apply hair mousse before putting on your rollers and blow drying to help add volume to your hair and create beautiful curls.
5. Bangs
Give your bangs a good shape by wrapping them around! Blow-dry your fringe for 30 seconds or a minute, then remove the roller. You can then comb your bangs if you want them neat and straight, or style them with your fingers for a wispy look.
6. Tight Curly Ends
Small hair rollers are your secret weapon if you want tighter curls – simply wrap your semi-dry, hair ends around the rollers, wait for them to set, and voilà – you’ll have perfectly curled ends that transform your ordinary hair into a charming, lively mane.

8. Bouncy Voluminous Hair
No more flyaways! Start by working a little volumizing mousse into your damp hair at the roots, then roll the ends of each hair section onto your rollers. A little pro tip for you: use larger rollers and ensure that you style them facing you to avoid flyaways.
