Question 1

Can I buy just the foam inserts. The plastic rollers are still in great shape after 5 plus years of daily use!

Accepted Answer

I also just buy cheap foam rollers from any drugstore and replace the foam. I've done this for years, and it works perfectly!

Question 2

Only curls the end of my hair, even though I roll the whole section, help?

Accepted Answer

I agree with other posters.  My hair reaches to my waist.  I start the roller about halfway down the section of hair, roll the ends and leave plenty of foam roller to also then roll up to the scalp.   BE SURE you are steaming the plastic covers, and I always shake them quickly before I put them on, to pop off any condensation that has accumulated because those drops will cause the curl to not take.  I also start at the crown doing the three front pieces framing my face first and then before unrolling I take off those 3 curlers shields, steam them again and put them on again and then remove them last.  Just my way of getting the pieces that frame my face to be as nice as possible!

Question 3

Is there an automatic shut-off?  Will it shut off automatically when it runs out of water?

Accepted Answer

No, not on the one I have. It doesn't have an on/off switch, so you have to unplug it.  I'm quite sure that it will NOT shut off when it runs out of water, so it is important to keep an eye on it.  I always empty mine out when I am finished so it is not sitting in water when not in use.  I have never really run out of water during a session.  Hope this helps!

Question 4

I have shoulder length/fine hair - I put velcro rollers in, spray,& leave in for an hour  + & my hair will be flat in 2 hours. will this work for me?

Accepted Answer

I have fine to medium hair and they worked perfectly.  My curls have lasted 2-3 days!  Be very careful to let each roller steam for only 4-7 seconds, and I steam the clamps as well.  From my experimentation with these rollers I've noticed the longer you leave these rollers in, the longer your curls will stay in.  It's also a good idea to lightly spray your hair with hairspray after you take the rollers out, then I just run my fingers through the curls and spray it again.  Another note, I only use distilled water because I think it makes the device last longer.  Hope this helps!
