Setting solution is exactly what it says. It's not gel or mousse, it's something you buy at Sally's or another beauty supply stores.

I have long, thick, straight hair too and I've never gotten curlers to work for me. Using a curling iron is probably your best bet but it's pretty time consuming.

How do you use hair curlers to curl your hair?

If it says "setting solution," it sounds like you got perm rods instead of curlers. You want small-diameter rollers - about 1/4" to 1/2" in diameter. Just divide the hair into lengths slightly less than the length of the roller and about 1/4" wide and wrap the wet or moistened hair around the roller and roll it from the end down to the scalp. Then set it in place with a bobby pin. The rollers should face downward (hair coming over the top of the roller) and away from your face. You can get "beauty" magazines at the drugstore or newsstand that will have diagrams of how to place the rollers for different hair styles.

Alternatively, you can dispense with the rollers and simply roll the hair around your finger and pin the resulting "curl" with a bobby pin.

How do you use hair curlers to curl your hair?

simply put, section off narrow strips of hair and pull the roller to the ends of hair. wrap it around the roller and roll it down the hair. if you have the velcro kind no pin is needed. i love those, get them at dollar store! really no need to sleep with all night! yuck. been there and did that on orange juice cans in the 60's! have used all kinds and below is my favorite and most efficient time saving method.

With velcro kind of curlers...for a quick set to relax kinks and get smooth organized curls (i live in very humid environs) wrap around dry. use blow dryer to get them gently warm. let cool about 15 minutes then unroll. brush or comb to your style. if right after shampoo, blow hair until almost dry. then roll and finish drying. use styling sprays if desired on hands rubbing thru hair before rolling but not necc'y. spray with hairspray to hold set. this lasts several days. good luck!
