Just what I wanted!
These are exactly what I was looking for! I have tried other rollers in the past without any luck...mostly because I had no idea what I was doing, so I watched this video per another users suggestion and it really, really helped:

I have longer (about mid-chest), thicker, naturally curly hair cut into long layers. I used them yesterday after having my hair up in a pony-tail all day. The curls came out beautifully. If you have naturally curly hair, you know that after having your hair up all day it tends to be a little straighter/smoother than after a fresh blow-dry so I was anxious to see how they would come out after a fresh wash/blow-dry. Tried them today after my wash/dry and once again they came out beautiful! I used hairspray prior to putting the rollers in for extra hold as well as after the rollers cooled and once again after taking out and "shaking" out the curls.
Some of the reviews say that they leave a "crimp" from the line in the rollers---I didn't notice that but perhaps that is due to the length of my hair.
A couple notes, not complaints, I could use at least 4 more rollers since my hair is longer but the pamphlet that comes with the rollers states you can buy extra sets. Also, the metal clips don't hold as well as it seems the plastic clips would and it takes a little time to get them in so my fingers burnt a bit while trying to get them in. Over time, probably wouldn't be a problem as you get the "technique" down but as a "newbie" to rollers, it takes me a little time. Overall though, I am very, very satisfied and these TOTALLY beat using a traditional curling iron on long hair to get the same results. Good luck ladies!

LOVE THESE ROLLERS
THIS IS THE SECOND SET I HAVE PURCHASED. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE TO BLOW DRY WITH A ROUND BRUSH OR NEED A THIRD HAND TO WORK WITH THESE ROLLERS ARE A GREAT ALTERNATIVE.

had trouble at first but then watched this
I bought this product tonight and just used the hot rollers. They were ready to go in about 3 minutes. I have never used hot rollers before so it was somewhat of a disaster... I tried to start from the bottom and work up... don't ask why. I seriously had no idea what i was doing. But in the end when I took them out i had much more volume than usual and some wave. I was really happy just with that. My hair is really flat and thin and I hate it.
So naturally I went looking around on the internet trying to figure out how to use these rollers and found this video on youtube.

I can't wait to try again tomorrow! Since I have seen so many posts about people not knowing how to use the wire clips, I thought I would share :)
Happy rolling!

Good for taming frizz
I use this set for taming my horrible hair. I have long semi-curly hair that tries to frizz all the time. These rollers really help smooth out my hair. I like the large size. They make nice big curls. They also work really well with the layers cut in my hair and really makes them stand out.
