Conair Xtreme Instant Heat Multisized Hot Rollers Review and Giveaway! (*2 winners*)

I have always had super curly hair. But not always the type of curls that I want. Mine are tight, little curls.  When it gets cut short my hair kind of waves. It can be frustrating to never get exactly what I want from my hair.  Well I was recently offered the chance to review the Conair Xtreme Instant Heat™ Multisized Hot Rollers  and I was so excited! 

The rollers come in 3 different sizes, which works great for getting beautiful curls just like I wanted!  Something unique to these rollers is that the clips are heated, so you get total heat all around the curl, not just from the roller itself.


Here is my hair after using the rollers:


This is my daughter Shae, we used the Conair You curl curling iron on her hair!

The rollers heated up super fast, which was great when you are short on time! They set and curl within about 10-15 minutes, depending on your hair type.


 Product Features:
■75 seconds – fastest heat-up for the perfect style


■Dual heat comes from both the clip and the roller for extra hold

■Ceramic technology – for better heat transfer and longer-lasting curls

■20 ceramic multi-sized rollers – for beautiful curls and volume

■8 jumbo rollers (1.25")

■6 large rollers (1")

■6 medium rollers (.75")

■20 heated clips

■Stay-cool end rings

■Ready dot

■On/Off switch

■Power indicator light

■5-foot line cord

■UL listed

■Limited one-year warranty
 

Anyone can use this product! It is simple to use:
HOW TO CURL YOUR HAIR

1. Place ends of hair on roller and wind toward scalp. Roll up hair firmly. Remove clip from heated post and secure over roller. Place another clip on an aluminum post for heat-up. Continue to add clips to heating post as rollers are added to hair.

2. The firmness of the curl is regulated by the diameter of the roller, and the length of time the roller is left in your hair.

3. For tight, firm curls, use smaller rollers and leave in the hair for at least ten minutes before removing. For soft, wavy curls, use larger rollers and remove rollers after a shorter period of time.

4. Removing roller: hold roller in one hand while removing heated clip with the other. Gently drop roller (DO NOT PULL) and let curl bounce back after roller has been completely removed. Let cool for one minute for a firmly set curl, and then style your hair into a look that lasts for hours.

IMPORTANT: After using the hairsetter several times, you will find the best roller selection, and the best timing for the texture of your hair and for the result you desire.

THE IONIZING FUNCTION GENERATES NEGATIVE IONS THAT CAN

• neutralize positive charge on

flyaway, frizzy hair

• eliminate static electricity

• contribute to shine

Some tips for use:
How To Use


1.Take a 1-inch wide section of hair, starting 2 inches from the scalp.

2.Wind the section of hair around the thicker portion of the barrel toward the cool tip.

3.Hold the end of the hair in place at the cool tip for 5 to 8 seconds depending on hair type, and then release. Because there is no clip, you can easily curl hair without kinks. For tighter, bouncier curls, roll less hair. For loose, free-flowing curls, roll more hair. To "set" the curl, do not comb or brush hair until it cools.

4.Repeat process on additional sections of hair until you achieve the hair style you desire.

Expert Tips
For tight curls wrap small sections of hair tightly and hold for a few seconds


For looser curls wrap wider sections of hair

For today's look, don't wind hair all the way – leave a few inches straight at the roots

I used this curling iron on my daughters hair.  Shae is such a good little girl when it comes to mommy messing with her hair! When she came home from school we got started! It took us about 20 minutes to get all her hair curled! I honestly couldn't stop talking about it for hours!! I was calling Grandma and daddy and everyone telling them to come see Shae's hair!  It is even quick enough to do in the morning before school.  I was also worried that maybe she would get burned, but everything went amazingly well! The only complaint was that sometimes I pulled a little tight when rolling her hair.  I also was able to do it with my 3 year old's hair who has real short hair and it made cute little ringlets! Also was able to keep from burning her (although I did get my self once or twice!)
