Sali Hughes on beauty: Velcro rollers give your hair added body and bounce
"Few things gladden my heart like the sight of young women arriving at a festival in Velcro rollers and not only because I am unshakeably convinced that everyone looks great in them. Velcros are portable, very easy, require no electricity, cause little to no harm and are inextricably linked, for me, with the sense of imminent good times. They lift roots, create volume and give a smoother, more sophisticated look than heatless curls created by those satin-covered bendy rollers so loved on TikTok."
"The Big Set (50) sells out regularly but recently came back into stock. It comprises 18 variously sized Velcro rollers and clips, as well as a retro-futuristic inflatable thermal bonnet with a hose that attaches to your hairdryer, mimicking the sort of heated hood one's nan or great-grandmother might have sat under with a copy of Women's Realm for her weekly curl and set."
Velcro rollers are portable, simple to use, require no electricity, and cause minimal damage compared with heat-based styling tools. They lift roots, create volume and produce a smoother, more sophisticated effect than heatless satin-covered bendy rollers. The Big Set from Sam McKnight includes 18 variously sized rollers, clips and an inflatable thermal bonnet that attaches to a hairdryer, mimicking a heated hood. Plain Velcro rollers avoid extended heat exposure and therefore limit hair damage; simpler methods are recommended until the technique is mastered. Smaller self-grip sets, such as Hershesons six-piece rollers, work well for quick root lift and added movement to flattened hair.
