Erin, I love watching you experiment. I have an entire lifetime of experience with these foam rollers. If you wear them to bed with the plastic clips, you're not getting ANY real sleep of any kind. Additionally, the plastic clips leave horrible demarcation in the hair - so here's a foam roller hack for you, from myself + my grandmother ❤ 1. Spray or soak the foam rollers with a non-aerosol hairspray... It doesn't have to be expensive it can be a simple $3 brand like Rave. This will help give your rollers longevity + properly allow your hair to adhere to them. 2. Remove all the plastic clips + toss them in the trash... they're uncomfortable, unnecessary, poorly designed + cause a lot of breakage. Replace the plastic clips with Bobby pins. You can slide a bobby pin at the base of the scalp right in through the roller hole. If the roller, has been put in evenly + on-base, it will only require one bobby pin. If not, you may have too much hair + you will want to reroll, or you can try adding a bobby pin to the opposite end as well. When you've finished your foam roller set, wrap a scarf around your head + grab your neck roll pillow... This is the best + most comfortable way to sleep in foam rollers 😘

So, I'd definitely use Mason Pearson first with a little mousse. Then use a wide tooth comb for 1 to 2 passes to create definition. If you want to prevent the ends from looking frizzy, a looser roll using end papers to secure and make sure your subsections lay flat the whole way to your ends. Could even put a bit of teasing in to help give more structure and direction to the final look with a light once over to smooth with a boar bristle brush to finish the look. Edit: Your end results are amazing, and I wanted to share the way I'd do a similar look. There are tons of ways to go about roller sets, and there is no right or wrong way. What works best for you and gives you your desired results is what you should do.

Seeing these foam rollers makes me so nostalgic. I grew up doing Irish step dancing competitively, and we had to have our hair curled for competitions and we would use the pink foam roller, sometimes green. But we'd always roll them loosely without squishing down the foam (or my mom would, until I learned to do it myself) Rolled the curler tightly all the way to the scalp but rolled the hair more loosely around the foam, without squishing it. Roll toward the scalp, but away from the face. When you roll it too tightly and it pushes the foam down it's basically like you just used the blue ones. The night before start with damp hair and if the rollers feel too loose after You've done them just use tie the head scarf tighter to keep the rollers tight to the head. When done this way different size rollers do make a difference! ❤

Love these curlers. In the 80s Those type curlers saved my life. I feel off my brother’s shoulders with them in my hair. I hit my head on a concrete stair. It was lights out for my three yr old butt. Had a concision. Dr said they saved me from having my head cracked open.

That color is GORGEOUS. In the early 90's my grandmothers best friend went every week & had her lavender silver hair done & it was FABULOUS. She was known for having that iconic haircolor.
You’re so unbelievably stunning that anything you do works…. You are magic
I just love how the rollers and scarf look. You should wear that. It does look really cute at the end, though.
TBH your style came out so much better than the editorial one. Gorgeous as always.
My grandma used to put those rollers in my hair, oh boy, not a look a pre-teen was going for. It was the 80s, everyone had perms. My hair was huge😂
not you lowkey rocking a fro! from one fro girl to another this was amazing ❤
That eye look is PERFECT on you!!!

Erin, I love watching you experiment. I have an entire lifetime of experience with these foam rollers. If you wear them to bed with the plastic clips, you're not getting ANY real sleep of any kind. Additionally, the plastic clips leave horrible demarcation in the hair - so here's a foam roller hack for you, from myself + my grandmother ❤ 1. Spray or soak the foam rollers with a non-aerosol hairspray... It doesn't have to be expensive it can be a simple $3 brand like Rave. This will help give your rollers longevity + properly allow your hair to adhere to them. 2. Remove all the plastic clips + toss them in the trash... they're uncomfortable, unnecessary, poorly designed + cause a lot of breakage. Replace the plastic clips with Bobby pins. You can slide a bobby pin at the base of the scalp right in through the roller hole. If the roller, has been put in evenly + on-base, it will only require one bobby pin. If not, you may have too much hair + you will want to reroll, or you can try adding a bobby pin to the opposite end as well. When you've finished your foam roller set, wrap a scarf around your head + grab your neck roll pillow... This is the best + most comfortable way to sleep in foam rollers 😘
I think the wetting them was what made the curls so tight, I’ve used these before and when you just wear them overnight I think the effect is a little less extreme
IN THE 70’s MY SHOULDER LENGTH HAIR… I USED THESE SPONGE ROLLERS JUST ON HALF MY HAIR, CAME OUT CUTE, I WAS 16 YEARS OLD IN 1973 & NOW IT’S 2024 & I’M 67 & WEAR MY LONG HAIR STRAIGHT.. EMBRACING MY NATURAL GRAYS & LOVING THE SILVER COLOR
I actually love the final look with the barrettes 🙌🏾

Ooohhhh that gorgeous eye look!! Mermaid envy!!!!
Ok but that hair is so cute, with that color too?! Sensational.
I actually love it after the first comb or two. Goes beautifully with your face.
End result is devine! You are stunning Erin❤
So, I'd definitely use Mason Pearson first with a little mousse. Then use a wide tooth comb for 1 to 2 passes to create definition. If you want to prevent the ends from looking frizzy, a looser roll using end papers to secure and make sure your subsections lay flat the whole way to your ends. Could even put a bit of teasing in to help give more structure and direction to the final look with a light once over to smooth with a boar bristle brush to finish the look. Edit: Your end results are amazing, and I wanted to share the way I'd do a similar look. There are tons of ways to go about roller sets, and there is no right or wrong way. What works best for you and gives you your desired results is what you should do.

I absolutely love this! The accidental lavender is perfect and your face when you brushed out that first curl is priceless.
Use a drop or two of lightweight oil in your palm! Rub hands together and separate each curl carefully when it naturally begins to split! You could sculpt the most amazing ringlets minus the afro haha. But the fro is cute too!💕
Really cute! I’m a black 73 woman you’re GIVING! Style for real! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙋🏽♀️ THANK YOU!
The silence when she brushed the curl GOT ME ROLLING 😂😂
NGL you looked fabulous in both versions.
omg you with the little afro was actually a vibe
I really like how your style was after you got finished with it, But the first comb out you did made me think straight up of Sophia Petrillo!
You literally look like my great grandma😂 it’s so cute it wasn’t meant to be rude. I swear to God it’s just it made me feel really happy honestly
But SLAAAY you look gorgeous either way💚
Seeing these foam rollers makes me so nostalgic. I grew up doing Irish step dancing competitively, and we had to have our hair curled for competitions and we would use the pink foam roller, sometimes green. But we'd always roll them loosely without squishing down the foam (or my mom would, until I learned to do it myself) Rolled the curler tightly all the way to the scalp but rolled the hair more loosely around the foam, without squishing it. Roll toward the scalp, but away from the face. When you roll it too tightly and it pushes the foam down it's basically like you just used the blue ones. The night before start with damp hair and if the rollers feel too loose after You've done them just use tie the head scarf tighter to keep the rollers tight to the head. When done this way different size rollers do make a difference! ❤
Wet sets on my older ladies were my favorite thing to do in cosmetology school. This looks so cute
I dont think you know how well the look came out! 100% ❤❤❤
So pretty. Giving the flapper vibes and silent film movies. Love that era.
Foam rollers can give tight inconsistent curls because the foam compresses when you roll your hair tight. I like to use perm rods for my wet sets. They are hard plastic so every curl is the same size.
These CURLS 🫵🏽🫵🏽🫵🏽🫵🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪🏽💪🏽😍
Old school rollers are awesome! There is a reason our grandmothers and great grandmothers had them.
That curl pattern looks good on you.
As you take out the roller, use a curling iron to help smooth and relax the curl, pin each curl in place, let the hair cool down and use your fingers or a brush to style.
For real, do you know how amazing your beauty gift is? You're amazing, and look even more amazing doing it.
"When you do a wet set like this, it should last you a good week." Me remembering growing up with such stick-straight hair that after a wet set with those exact curlers, I'd wake up looking like Shirley Temple only for *all* the curl to have fallen out by the end of the day! 💀

I use "roller end papers" to keep the ends down while I set. They help to control the hair so I don't panic and wind the hair too tight around the foam.

You can mist it after or use a hair oil when you're putting it up to make it more manageable. The 2nd day is usually perfect.

Whenever you take out sponge rollers on a wet set, try using a light oil on your fingertips to pull apart the curls to reduce frizz instead of using a comb
