    Hey all
    Normally when i curl my hair i use a spiral/angel curls curler/tongs, takes me bout 30 mins to do but love the results.

    Have a wedding out of town i'm attending coming up and am gonna curl my hair for it. Now wont have time to curl my hair that morning so will i get the same effect with leaving rollers in overnight? Not done that in years! Need to buy some, will i try the ordinary big rollers or the bendy flexy ones? Looking for a nice curl that'll last throughout the long day

    Thanx

    I find that the rollers aren't as good as the tongs, but maybe put the rollers in anyway and touch them up quickly in the morning with the tongs if you want them to last all day. Also don't forget to spray them with hairspray before you go, L'oreal Elnett is meant to be the best!

    Hairspray, and lots of it. I got a good Wella one (I think!) from the hairdressers, much better than stuff you buy in the shop - it's like industrial strenght hair spray lol :) So go to a hairdressers and ask for stuff there! Then use the GHD / hair tongs to curl your hair, spray and go!

    Im a curl addict myself and have had a similiar scenario as yours where I used those thin bendy rollers the night before only to take them out the next day and have a head like Shirley Temple!!! I didnt have the time to wait and see if they would fall so ended up washing them out :( I find that the ghd or wand curls (takes wayyyy less time and gives a beautiful lose natural looking curl) are the best as you can control the curl much better than a roller. So if like me your hair is fine and curls well then dont use those thin rollers overnight, maybe the bigger stickey ones would be better overnight.

    Ever wish you had natural curls?? haha

    I have very fine hair. I use those twisty stick ones in the morning and let my hair dry in them, with a little mousse. Works fine.
