What am I doing wrong? When I use these clips my hair has a bend at the top of my hair? My hair is thin and falls just below my shoulders.

I do not understand the bend ? Are you meaning that each PC of hair you roll has a bend or crease at wher the top of clip is? Because I have fine hair but mine may not be as thin, but if your hair is wrapped tight I do not see how you could be getting a bend in it!??? I wish I could see a photo of how your rolling hair then maybe I could help you! Mine does not come off like that.

I think your rollers are too small. I bought some velcro like rollers very large, almost too large for the clips. You won't get the bend. I bought the clips for my heated rollers, but they are too thin for my thin hair. They are heavy, too, so the clips don't work very well. I experienced the bend because the rollers were too small.

I always make sure my hair is tight and does not make a difference if I use large size or small size!

You are not doing anything wrong:) It's because that is how the hair is setting. The heat molds the hair into the curl shape, unfortunately, the clip will also mold the hair....try putting the "long" side of the clip on the top of the curler instead of the short side.

If you are not using a conditioner this could be the problem. I use WEN hair products.

No, these are small "wig" clips used to clip on hair extensions. They don't have enough holding power to hold your hair up to put a wig on. These are not designed for that. You can YouTube wig clips to see how small they are to get an idea. Hope I answered your question.

Yes, my hair is thick and past my shoulders and this is the 2nd one I have owned. I use straightening products in my hair as well so maybe it make it easier.

They kind of help hold hair in place. If you have very thick hair (I do) I use smaller sections of hair and it works better.

I didn't use them. I threw it away, the quality of the hair was horrible. ...but to answer your QA, u start with the 2 clips on the bottom the 3...3...the the longest in the middle.

Not at all, you will love these. I do reccomend using a med size amount of hair per roller because the clips do not hold supper tight if there is a lot of hair on the roller. I have really thick hair and found that it works better if I don't put a lot on each roller.

My hair does not get stuck on the rollers. I have long hair so I tend to wrap the ends around the roller and then role the rest of the section.

I am honestly not sure, but I don't think they will be very useful for that purpose. The reason I say this is because I do not know how you will manage to get the clip itself to stay in place. I sewed them unto a track, and clipped the track into my hair.

Yes, you have to handle them very carefully. Frankly, I'm sorry I ever bought this product and have used it only a couple if times. Not only are the rollers hard to handle, the clips leave "dents" in my hair no matter how carefully I try to avoid them. The end result is you never get a smooth look, you get hair with kinks.

I have long, fairly thick hair and there is always plenty left over. My hair falls straight about 3 to 4 inches below my shoulders. This product works really well btw.

Hi Joan, I have a set of Hot Setter Pro hot rollers, too. There's not really a trick to the clips; they go outside the roller itself. Just roll your hair around the roller and slide the clip over the hair and roller. I find it works best to slide them over the middle of the roller/rolled up hair. If your hair is thin, it may be hard to get them to hold. I don't have a problem with my thick hair, but my previous rollers had plastic clips that more fully covered the roller and hair, and I found they held the hair and roller more securely. Hope that helps.

You have to push them forward towards your head as much as possible. I have also had to use a wide u metal clip from another set plus the roller clip to hold the roller at my crown. I love that the rollers give long soft curl but a better clip securing the roller would be an improvement.

My hair is thick so nothing really weighs it down. If your hair is thin this product could weigh your hair down if you use too much. I literally grab a scoop of it. But I think you might want to try a quarter size, spread it around then see how it goes.

It depends on where they are on your head. On the sides and back, assuming you want them to curl under, you put them on the bottom, underneath the curl. On top of your head, they may need to go on the back of the curl. Basically you just have to experiment. They do quite well once you figure it out. If your hair is very thick or very long, you may need to go to a beauty supply store and get larger stronger clips but they work well with my fairly thick hair cut at bob length.

I have pretty thin hair as well. Don't turn it up all the way and you should be fine. Maybe test it on a piece before doing your whole head.

I have shoulder legnth fine hair. I find these difficult to keep in my hair. It looks good when I get them in but takes some getting use to.
