How do you fit all those rollers under a hooded dryer?

[zzirvingj]

I have been reading a few threads about rollersetting...and for those who have alot of/long hair, what hooded dryer do you use?

I would really like to know what dryer will fit alllll those BIG rollers that I see some of you use to set with. I already have a big head so if I tried to rollerset, with BSL hair, I'd imagine I would need a mighty big dryer to do it with LOL!

I have a Pibbs 514 dryer. When I do roller sets, I use a combination of grey and purple rollers. I don't have a problem fitting under my dryer.

I also use a Pibbs. I have done sets with all gray rollers with no problems. There is not tons of room under the dryer with all the gray rollers but I do think that I could upgrade to a mix of black & gray rollers and still fit....albeit not likely with all black rollers. Pics are in my fotki with all gray rollers under the dryer.

I have BSL n a big head too!!! Mesh rollers take up much less space.

What kind of dryer are you using that fits all of your mesh rollers?

Is it a soft bonnet dryer?

When I went to the Domincans they put me under the Pibbs with all gray rollers and I couldn't move. It was so tight and uncomfortable.
At home I use gray and purple/lavender rollers and it's pretty tight but at least I can turn my head. I use the pink ion dryer.
I tried the black rollers under it and it wasn't happening.

I got a Pibbs knock off from Salon Outfitters and I fit under mine with all grey rollers with no problem at all. And yes, I have a big head.

Ok...i must have an extra big head, because I have a Pibbs 514 dryer and I can't fit my head under it with the grey rollers. If I do a flexi rod set it's very, very tight. I try to use as few flexi rods and rollers as possible and put as much hair as I can without it being too much hair.

I started using my space helmet soft bonnet dryer again to do my flexi rod sets. And I use the smaller rollers when I use my Pibbs.

I have a big head, and when I try to do rollersets, I use purple and gray rollers and I can barely fit this noggin' up under there comfortably. Even when doing a flexirod set, it's still hard for me to get my head up under the hood. And because this is an issue, it usually takes a lot longer than I would like for my hair to completely dry. BTW, I have a Pibbs 514.

hold up, did d send you that cake???????
if so............

i can't believe you can't fit under a 514. i use the large purple and next smaller grey rollers. the main key is not not use the largest rollers on the crown, but mostly on the sides under a pibbs.

Girl you are funny........no she didn't send it to me. But she was my inspiration for making it. After seeing all those delicious desserts she be making and posting on here, I decided that it was time to step my game up and get to cookin. I was really having a craving for chocolate that night, so I made it and had some yummy Blue Bell Vanilla ice cream with it (and a cold, tall glass of milk)

I'll have to try that roller-positioning tip. Thanks!~

I have a Pibbs 512 and I usually use the green mesh rollers that are 1.5 inches. It works just fine.

I have a conair flip down dryer that has a huge hood. A Pibbs would be ideal but I'm a college student at the moment on a college student budget

I use grey and black rollers under my Babyliss hood dryer. They fit nice and comfy under it.

What kind of dryer are you using that fits all of your mesh rollers?

I have a Pibbs 514. I mesh sometimes but Im a lot faster with magnetics. Plus my magnetic sets come out a lot smoother.

Just curious....do the magnetic rollers you use come with the "snap on covers" or do you secure them with clips?

You're welcome. This is a Venus Highland that I bought from Sally's last year. It's the same kind that most salons I've visited have. It was $169 and I bought the stand for an additional $35.
