Lonei's Flexi Rod Set Pics

[lonei]

Hey everyone, just did a flexirod set (1st attempt) and am not best pleased. After 4 hours under the dryer they are still damp! I won't be doing this again in a hurry!

The pics are in my jan 07 album on the 2nd page, enjoy!

I think they look quite cute, and remember you have very long hair so the curl itself will droop a little. I imagine it looked fantastic after you finger styled your hair.

don't be hard on yourself your hair always looks beautiful

Your hair looks so pretty Lonei (as usual)--love the shine too! Thanks for showing us your flexi rod set!
I'd post a comment in your Fotki but the comment tab stiil isn't working for me.

Very pretty lonei!

 

[lonei]

Thanks ladies, your too kind!

I agree that your set came out really nice. After taking it down I would dry it with a diffuser and then pull out the curls...it will be gorgeous!

 

[sweetcashew]

I think it looks really pretty. I also like how it got the roots straight. You're brave for attempting this on wet hair.

 

[ohsosuzy]

Looks great... love your color

 

[victorious]

Beautiful long spirals!

Really? I tried it once and it was a disaster. My curls were too tight even though I used 8 rods and they took forever and a day to dry. Then afterwards I couldn't manage to make it look good with all those curls. Then it won't wrap for nothing. I really didn't like them at all.
Maybe I should try to do them again. What products do you use when you do them?

 

[deltagyrl]

Everytime I see your siggy. I sigh.....
I vant, yes vant, your hair! Gaw'jus!!

 

[lonei]

Lol, thanks again ladies!

Well the size rod may be part of the problem.I use bigger rods. I guess it depends on what look you're going for. I admit though, it usually takes me all day.That's because I only sit under the dryer for about 30 minutes on medium and then I let it airdry. I bet your hair would be GORGEOUS on the burgundy rods from Sallys

I just use my detangler, leavein and serum. I use about 15-18 rods for this look:

The look great. I've found it helpful to spiral the hair around the rod with minimal overlapping instead of wrapping the hair over itself.

Lonei, I think you did a great job. The curls look perfect. You can always sit under the dryer a little longer without the rods.

The more rollers I use, the less required drying time. The more hair on the roller, the longer it takes to dry.

Sweet Cashew, what size flexi were you using?

 

[alexstin]

That is so beautiful!

Thanks!!

The big purple ones.

The big purple ones.

I have these.....and like alexstin mentioned I think your hair would look beautiful set on these. I have the purple as well, and the burgundy is much bigger.



Sorry to hi-jack Lonei.

You did a great job, I would love to see the end results.

How are you all maintaining your hair at nite? I set my hair on the rods but by day 3 my hair looks a mess. Its smooshed and flat I looks a hot mess.

Help your girl out!

 

[krissyprissy]
