    Best HOT CURLERS/ROLLERS out on the market

    Caruso steam I have great luck with the caruso steam curlers. I've had the same set since the mid-80s and its a work-horse! Its very gentle. That being said, I don't believe the newer version of either the steamer or the curlers work quite as well as the original. I picked up one...

    How often do you "set" your hair?
