a question about styling~

| just a quick question about styling wig, i'm considering curling a wig myself since i couldnt find the right wig anywhere >.< so i thought that i might try this technique http://www.amphigory.com/wig_how_to_curl.html but is it safe to use plastic rollers in wigs?
much appreciated!

| Well, I haven't tried heating my wigs yet. But from what I've heard and seen, it can be very disastrous. But as long as you're careful its fine.

- Old brush type curlers - Curlers with a cylindrical metal/plastic mesh on the outside and a brush on the inside. You will remove the brush from the center of the curler. Just trust me on this one
Hm. Doesn't specify does it? XD
I'm sure plastic ones should be fine C: If you're afraid to use heating tools, want to try the paper curls technique?

| Hehe, I just used that tutorial! I found that blowdrying the fibre didn't do jack - I got impatient and used hot water; worked like a charm. I used velcro rollers, with mixed results - some got all tangled, and when I tried taking them out the fibre got all frizzy and gross. But other curls ended up absolutely perfect :) I found the worst part was when the hair didn't stay in the middle of the roller. If it got wrapped around the ends that's where it all went fubar. |
