Types of Root Rollers
Root rollers typically come in a variety of styles:

Tips for Better Root Volume

- Direction: When rolling, lift hair straight up to the sky for maximum root lift.

- Hairspray: Apply hairspray before or after you've placed your rollers to set the style better.
- Drying: Always make sure your hair is at least slightly damp or dried with the root rollers in to ensure the style holds.
