(More customer reviews)If you are looking for a small travel set, this is about the most compact I have been able to find. I like the small size of this set but I find it is frustrating to use because the rollers are so heavy - the weight of the rollers makes it difficult to keep the rollers in my hair and they often fall out. Also, the metal pins that hold the rollers on also get loose which again, causes the rollers to fall out of your hair. I phoned the manufacturer when I purchased this set to ask why on earth they had made the rollers so heavy. I was told the heating elements are in each of the individual curlers (!) and this is how they can make the unit so small (there is no heating element on the bottom of the set - it is instead inside each roller.) Be forewarned, if your hair is too short, the curlers will not stay in because of their weight. I had a shorter haircut once, and there was no way I could use this roller set - the curlers would absolutely not stay in! I compare this set to an old set of Clairol hot rollers I have that is the greatest. The Clairol hot roller set has very lightweight flocked rollers with a plastic band around each end that sits up and stays cool to the touch. Because the stay cool end band sits up, it's very easy to keep your fingers away from the hot part of the roller. It's easy to touch the hot part of the Remington blue rollers which is not much fun - it gets very hot and burns your fingers. Back to the Clairol rollers - they are very easy to use and stay in, but the set I have is a set of 18 which is way too big for travel. Clairol had the best rollers. Another neat thing about the Clairol set was, you could have small, medium, or large rollers and they all fit on the same heating pin. Some other manufacturers sets would come with certain size rollers that you could not change, for instance, they'd have 6 medium and 6 jumbo rollers and you have no option to change it. With the Clairol set, you could order any size rollers you wanted so if you wanted all small, or more jumbo or any combo you wanted, you could have it. If any manufacturers are reading this review, P-L-E-A-S-E produce a 6 or 8 travel flocked roller set like the old Clairol sets. They would sell like hotcakes! The Remington is the best I could find for now, so go for it if you have long (at least shoulder length) hair and can stand a little frustration with trying to keep the rollers in!!!
