Hairstylist & Salon OwnerWhen using any roller on short hair, it's key that the hair isn't tangled. The section you select should be a bit narrower than the roller and not longer than it. This prevents too much hair on the roller. I suggest finger combing to get rid of tangles and align strands by length. If damp, a brush might work better. Using a setting lotion can make the style last. As you roll, neatly tuck the edges so there's no messy look or crinkles. Roll the hair smoothly back and toward the head until snug to the scalp. The goal is getting each section smooth against the roller. -

QuestionCan I use steam curlers on wigs with synthetic hair?Snakey006550Top AnswererYes, you can use steam curlers on synthetic hair wigs, but do so with caution. Steam is safer than direct heat tools like curling irons, as it can reshape synthetic fibers without causing damage.

QuestionWhat is the difference between the ionic setting and the steam setting?Snakey006550Top AnswererThe ionic setting emits negative ions to reduce frizz and lock in moisture, making hair smoother. The steam setting uses moist heat to hydrate and style hair, which is less damaging than dry heat. Choose the ionic setting for sleek, frizz-free results and the steam setting for moisture and gentle styling.
