Do these u4se heat or...what to set the curl? I would probably leave them in over night, but I want to know if I can also rely on them to curl asap.

I do not use heat for these. I use a curling mousse and sleep when them overnight. I have tried to curl my hair about 4 hours prior to an event and it has worked but it is not as curly as if I were to sleep overnight in them.

In short, yes. My hair absolutely does not hold a curl to save its life. I think hot rollers in general are better for hair that doesn't hold a curl. The key to keeping a curl is letting the hair cool in the curl shape. When you use a curling iron they fall immediately, instead of cooling in the right shape. I own these ones specifically and I really like them. They take WAY less time to curl all my hair than a curling iron and it holds longer. I wouldn't say they're miracle workers, but definitely an improvement.

No way to adjust the temp. My advice would either be to take them out sooner, or brush the curls out after you take out the rollers, and avoid hairspraying until they are as wavy as you'd like them.

IMO the rollers heat to a way too hot temperature. They can burn your fingers, your head, and your hair. I have fairly fine hair and they burned it to the point it broke off.

Use on dry har. I have left them in as little as 10 minutes..but I prefer to leave them about 20-30. Depends on the size roller you use, and how tight a curl you want. I usually roll hair, then by the time I do my makeup and few other things..I'm good to go.

Yes, they have the propensity to get really hot depending on how long they are allowed to be heated. When I desire loose curls, I heat for roughly 5-8 minutes. For tighte curls, I sometimes leave the curlers on for between 15 - 30 minutes.

I was unable to curl mine with a curling iron . they weren't real . they frizzed & were hideous when I curled them with curlers .

Mine isn't exactly heat-resistant. After washing, I was unsure if the curls would bounce back but they did. There were a few that seemed....flat, so I tried out my curling iron on its lowest setting and it didn't go so well. It didn't flat out melt, but it did somewhat heat it into a tangled clump.

You can tell they are heated by touch. They become very warm so you can pull a curler out & test for warmth. 10-15 min & they are ready to go. These are very hot so you will have to handle lightly while rolling but they do the job. I have long hair & these hot rollers create beautiful curls.

That is a close description of what I do and my hair type, and they didn't work for me. I live in north Texas where the humidity is not low. I think that has quite a bit to do with it. I think if you live in a very dry area you stand a better chance of it working. When I say they didn't work, I mean not even a tiny bit, rollers in, rollers left in for 30 minutes, rollers out, NOTHING, limp hair.

You are right - no instructions were sent and I even checked with my hairdresser and she could not help. I only used it as a curling brush and it barely was hot enough to curl. I consider it a loss. Sorry I can't help.

NO! CANNOT CURL! THEY ARE SYNTHETIC! DO NOT BUY! I bought them for prom and was so disappointed, plus they take forever to come in.

They appear natural although when curling on low temperature they appeared to have a plastic scent they are black. I in all honesty would not recommend due to how thin they are I was like what is this ??? I was disappointed but for the price don't expect to much I have tried synthetic hair 24 inch for under 10 bucks and they have worked for 5+ months they have straight or curly to keep the curls bounce the night before I put rollers rods on them & they look great.

Yes I curled mine on the highest heat setting, and then straightned it again, but like any normal hair im sure if you left it on for to long it will burn, i left my heat iron on my counter for to long and it burned that. It gets staticy though so use a light mist spray bottle to keep it down. But to answer your question yes! :)

No problem with them curling up! I haven't had them quite so long but so far, so good. I always make sure I step completely on the mat- so not to "kick" the edges. I can't figure out WHY they are curling. I absolutely LOVE mine.
