I know a ton of people with straight hair who love to opt for rollers. It gives them that perfect wave, not too much curl, with just the perfect amount of bounce. But when I thought about people with curly hair using rollers it seemed to me like it would be quite the difficult task. And since some others agreed, hairstylist Oribe sat down to teach the folks with curly locks how to get that perfect wave.
First, Oribe says to mist the hair with an anti-humidity spray. Next, separate the curls into manageable sections. Once you’ve separated the hair, wrap each section around your fingers before using the rollers. Then apply the rollers. Oribe recommends a felt-covered roller to give the hair some extra shine. Try it out!
