Ever feel like your hair feels a little flat, even after curling? Enter the best hot hair rollers to give you ultimate curl power.
As opposed to tongs, you can get right to the root for extra bounce and greater volume. Hot rollers also tend to give you a curl that lasts longer, as well as being less damaging for your tresses.
Simply rough-dry your hair and prep with a volumising mousse or spray, add your hot hair rollers and wait until they've completely cooled before removing them. For soft waves, run your fingers or a wide-toothed comb through your hair afterwards, and add a texturising spray.
Pro-tip? Spray your head with hairspray when the hot hair rollers are in for extra lift and longevity.
Whether you want ultra-glam party hair or everyday waves, we've rounded up the best hot hair rollers below for high-shine, full-of-life, stay-put curls. Wave hello to your new lock-lifting essentials...
