Ohhh, I just bought these last week. You are right, they don't come any bigger than that that I have seen! They were only 1.69 per pack too!!!!!
Did you get them online HoneyDew? I think it was Metrobeauty where I saw them awhile ago.

I got mine from Goldenmart Beauty Supply online. So far I really like them.

How do you sleep on the magnetic rollers. I have the pink ones. I looooved the style i got from them when i did a rollerset. But it was a pain to sleep in. Maybe i need to variate them better?

I would like to know this too for when I *attempt* to start rollersetting my own hair. Maybe you should have done a poll. I think you can still add one.

There we go; I just added a poll even though it's about 5 months late :lol:

I like the satin covered sponge rollers (when my hair is dry already) I can roll one night and curls last about 4 days. When doing a wet set I like the smooth magetic rollers (red or purple).

I have so many rollers that give different effects...let's see

1. Mesh- I love the quick drying time that I can get with these
2. Magnetic- smooth; there's actually nothing that i really hate about these
3. Snap-on Magentic- very easy to use when I'm just being lazy or if I'm tired. I don't really care about the dents, especially if I'm gonna wear it curly or wrap it.
4. Flexi-rod- I like them, but they take some getting used to
5. Perm rods- These are cool too, but I hate it when the rubber thing snaps back on my finger...ouch!
6. Sponge- didn't use for a long time. I didn't want to risk dryness and breakage
7. Satin covered Sponge (w/ clamp)- I like these, but I try not to roll them too tightly or else I'd end up with a big bouffant.
8. Satin covered Spong (w/ folding edges)- These are cool too
9) Crimp/Wave- I haven't even opened the packages yet, but I will use them sooner or later and update with pics!
10) Solar Rollers- Haven't been able to fully test them yet, but they're in my closet.

I would have to say that my absolute favorites so far are Mesh and Magnetic. With those, I can buy them small enough to give me curls like flex-rods and perm rods without struggling too much.

ETA: I forgot about Caruso Rollers......they're nice too.

WOW!!!:eek: TSUPrinces that's a lot of rollers on your bed

I like magnetic. I used sponge in high school, covered with toilet paper to protect my ends!!!!:lol: :lol: :lol:

that is exactly what i use to keep the sides of my hair from being flat in the morning after i rollerset.

i have some flexis but ive only used them once. i mostly just use the snap on magnetic rollers 1. because im just learning how to roll my hair up on them and 2. im too cheap to buy other rollers to see how they work out.

First: Magnetic with the smaller holes. It is my happy medium between the magnetic and mesh because I can use the pins instead of clips.

Second: Satin rollers. These are great for sleeping

I like the snap-on magnetic the best. I also like the magnetic without the snaps, but I can get the rollers to hold much better with the snap-ons.

After several tests, I am still faithful to my favorite blue mesh rollers. They give the bouncy style I love, they are easy to roll in and fix with the pins going through the mesh fabric and they are the best fit under the hood.
When I do not get the mood to stay under the dryer, I will use huge magnetic rollers and airdry in those. Thi will straight my hair, but without the bouncy style

I just started rolling a couple of weeks ago, and really like the solar rollers and the satin covered foam rollers. Both are easy to sleep in, work well on dry (or slightly damp) hair, and give great curls. I bought my satin covered ones from Walgreens.com and the solars from Walmart. I will learn to do wet sets next. I have the magnetic rollers with the clamp. I would like to be able to have a nice set for special occasions.

i love the perm rods (pink and the white ones) i've been using them for years to roller set my hair. i have pics of old roller sets with the perm rods in my fotki album labeled protective styles.

I have to go with magnetic rollers. I love the smooth ends and body that I get with these rollers.

I have been curious about the flexirods though, but I haven't actually bought any yet. Still debating...

Jet Set EZ-Grip, but the soft long twisty rollers are looking nice... I would love to see what the finished set with those look like...

I picked the magnetic rollers w/clip first because of the way the set looks the first day. The satin foam are my second choice because they help me to keep the set for a few days.

I am new so I am just getting my process together. I discovered that the bun was easy to do but harder to keep. AND I did not like the way it looked on me.

I did a magnetic roller set on Sunday. I have been rolling it on the satin foams at night to keep the set. I plan to wash again on Wednesday and start all over again. That's the plan! :)
