Hair product rec

[StJess80]

I like to use hot rollers on my hair. However, by 10am, the curls have fallen out. I use Kenra 25 hairspray right after rolling, and again after it is styled, and Tresseme humidity resistant mousse before I blow dry.

I've also tried B&B styling lotion spray and that doesn't seem to help either.

Any rec's? My hair is thin, oily, and needs washing every day.

Kiehl's gel and B&b surf spray work for me for volume.

I've had success with the headband curls with both of these products, but hot rollers do not work on my hair, no matter what.

I have fine, oily hair.

IMO hot rollers are more for adding volume rather than curls. My hair holds curls really well from my curling iron but won't hold hot roller curls either.

Agreed.

Ok, this is my hair just put in my rollers and sprayed w/ hair spray.

This is my hair after using a mousse or something similar. I like this look, it's not overly curly, has some body...but it still ends up looking flat in 2hrs.

You need something formulated for heat styling. You could try Kenra Platinum Hot Spray 20, Kenra Thermal Styling Spray, Redken Hot Sets 22, or Redken Spray Starch 15.

I used to work in a beauty supply shop that sold primarily Redken and Kenra products. Can you tell? lol Although I love my Kenra products still!

Oh, I think I have the redken 22. I'll look.

And, I have some kenra shine spray that I LOVE.

Do you use dry shampoo? I just use the cheap Suave stuff and they keeps my hair less oily and gives it some body. I would try that then proceed with your other products and styling.

I find my hair won't hold curl or style if it's freshly washed. I have fine hair that oil prone, too - I went to co-washing only and it's actually a LOT less flat and oily.

Anyway, I have to dirty it up to get it to hold. It works best on second day hair, then I add Aveda mousse and volumizing spray. I do a mist of medium hold hairspray - I think right now I have Matrix, but I've used everything from Herbal Essences to $$$ stuff, it doesn't seem to make a difference for me. It's all about the prep in my case.

Kenra makes a curl defining gel/creme that might work. I love Kenra products.
