How to Set Medium Length Hair with Hot Rollers
Before setting your hair, wash and condition your hair with a volumizing shampoo and conditioner. Towel dry your hair and apply a heat protectant spray to avoid any damage to your hair from the hot rollers.
Next, divide your hair into sections. For medium length hair, divide your hair into four sections, two at the back and two at the front.
Take the first section and comb through it to remove any tangles. Take a hot roller and place it at the end of the section. Roll the hair onto the roller towards the scalp and secure it with a roller clip. Repeat this process for all the sections.
