Style Alert! Shay Sullivan Will Make You Crave a Set of Rollers Now

Beauty warning: watching these videos by Shay Sullivan, a beauty influencer from Nashville, will make you instantly run to buy yourself a set of rollers. “I am buying rollers because of u!” – says Katrina, one of Shay’s followers. And frankly, we want to do the same right now, even just for that cute ‘50s style housewife look with the rollers in.

If you are itching to get all the details about how to create a salon-worthy blowout using rollers, one of blogger’s videos delivers everything you need to know.

Start with applying some mousse and heat protection. Then rough dry your hair until it’s about 80% dry. Next, start curling your hair section by section using a round brush. Once the strand is fully dry, put a roller in. Move from the bottom of your head to the top. You can use Velcro or regular rollers; the latter would require pins to keep them in place. Alternatively, if you don’t have any rollers, you can just secure the curls using clips. Leave the rollers in until they are completely cool or even until you need to leave the house.

In another tutorial, Shay shares how to pin your curls using metal sectioning clips. If you want your Dyson Airwrap curls to last, you need this video!

Are you wondering why your curls drop? Here are a few reasons that might be causing this issue:

• You work on hair that is too wet and don’t let it dry properly. Only fully dry hair will hold curls.
• You don’t use products. A mousse or setting spray is a must if you want to achieve a long-lasting blowout. Also, some finishing hairspray will lock your curls’ shape.
• It’s very humid outside. Yes, the weather affects our hair a lot, and perhaps it’s best to choose to wear curls of waves on dry days to avoid disappointment.
• You don’t let your hair cool down properly. If you take the rollers out before your hair sets in place, the curls will likely drop. Hot or warm hair can easily change its shape, which is less likely to happen to room-temperature locks.
• Your hair is naturally very straight and heavy, or on the opposite, very fine and very straight. Those two types of hair are notorious for not holding curls. While it can be beyond frustrating, you can’t ignore the pluses: in everyday life, straight hair is much more convenient and manageable than any other type. However, for the days when you do want a curly style, opt for a curling iron, because it will give you more viable results.

You may want to try using rollers without any heat – simply put them in your slightly wet hair. Just make sure your hair is 100% dry before taking the rollers out. Alternatively, you can use a hooded dryer. Try, experiment, and have fun!
