I spent a long time last night looking at all the different things but it just feels too complicated. I've not ruled it out though so thanks for your efforts

I am going to try them on your recommendation. So hope you are prepared for the ear bashing you deserve when hair is inevitably poker straight again approx 3 mins after rollers are out.

I am no expert but I did it on almost dry hair and I moosed (sp?) in volumising spray and left for about 15 minutes.

My hair is shoulder length with shorter layers.

Approx £5? I got mine free by asking if anyone had any - most people have them laying about but not being used.
