Ever wanted to know how to get more lift with your hot rollers? Its easy to do once you know how. Its all in the technique you use.
Hair that's been lifted up looks fuller and more luxurious. Also, applying a gel, mousse, or pomade before you roll your hair helps maintain the lift longer. Apply a small bit on the hair right above your roots on top of your hair for maximum benefits. Be sure to apply them to moist hair and finish drying with a blow dryer before you start.
After you've set your curls, unwrap them carefully from your hot rollers. Do not brush your hair out if you want your curls to lock in place. Gently finger through your curls instead. Spray with holding hairspray for better, longer lasting results. If you want more lift than you got, spray hairspray near the roots with your hair UP. Allow to dry while it's up. You can also back comb or tease certain sections to get even more lift!
One other way to get more lift is to hairspray your hair while your head is upside down. Don't overdo with your hairspray though. Your hair won't look natural.
