Has anybody compared the travel set with the full set? 30 rollers in the fill set seems like overkill but is 14 rollers in the travel set enough?

yes that is enough because the steam rollers curl your hair quickly. I have fine hair and as fast as I put them all in I remove them. It depends on your hair thickness and how much time you have. Carole

I have a medium length bob.....never use the small curlers.....use the large ones for top and sides and med ones for back...so that is 8 and it works for me....

I bought the ProTraveler first. I needed more jumbo and large so I bought the set of 30. I have more rollers then I need, but I love the versatility. I can set my hair from very curly to wavy. I would suggest you buy the full set with 30 curlers. You can buy more of any size separately if you need them.

I have used the travel kit for many years with both long and short hair styles. 14 rollers is more then enough. I have purchased the 30 roller set because it was a good price. Never needed more than 14 curlers. You might want to keep them in case any get damaged. Never happened to me though. Hope this helps!

I ordered the Travel set 1st & needed more because I have long hair. When I compared the set of 30 to buying them 6 at a time, it made more sense. I made use of both steamers. I have a summer home. You can share the 2nd set. The set of 30 is the best value & should be more than enough.

That is correct. The set I purchased has (4) 1.5" and (4) 1.75" rollers in it.

When I purchased these I believe I paid about 16.00. There are 5 rollers. I normally bought these at Costco but they don't have them anymore, Costco was a better price and you got more on the roll I think.These don't tear at the perforation as well either, kind of irritating. $19.99 sounds too high.

Yes and no. If you pull really hard, you'll get three or four sheets. The roller is not that tight, but we use the larger rolls and the weight of that heavier roll tends to allow only one at a time. The ability of replacing the roll compared to others we tried, is worth the extra spin of the roller at times.

I'd suggest the full size set, the tiles are much easier to handle, place, and keep in place compared to the travel set. Additionally, the bag for my travel set has already ripped along the top seam near the zipper.

There are 3 sizes of rollers. There are 8 large, 6 medium, and six small. I have never been able to curl my hair with these all at once. You can order more of a certain size from Conair.com, but I'm unsure as to how many you could fit inside the heater as each slot is meant to hold a certain size of roller. My hair is naturally curly but will not hold the curl from these rollers. I would suggest looking online, perhaps on YouTube, on ways to curl your hair with a straightener. If you roll your hair into a pin curl and clamp it between the plates on a straightener, you get the same effect and a longer hold. I wouldn't recommend these. There are 3 sizes of rollers.

I have the Salon Mate by Windmere which has 14 small rollers and 6 medium ones. Let me know if I can still help you.

To J. Lyn Morris. I can't seem to find the quantity packaging here? The roller with the tape is 3 dollars less and it's prime with no tax. Same with refill which is prime with no tax but it's 10 bucks. Why not buy the roller with the one roll on it for 3 bucks less? Too bad it's hard to find these at Walmart cause when we have they are much cheaper. Less than half as much. I don't even see them on Walmart.com anymore. Maybe Amazon bought the company. They will do that or take a loss to undercut competing stores and then raise their prices once it's only available on Amazon. To J. Lyn Morris. I can't seem to find the quantity packaging here?

I have 2 sets, 1 for home & another for travel. Wouldnt leave home without them. Don't know why they are more expensive, the brand, I would image. Checked out a couple of other brands, they only offered one size rollers, I wanted 2 sizes. I'm very happy with them, hope this helps.

I've done both, checked and carry on. It fits in my international roller and there's no problem bringing it.

Hi, I have the Kwik Dri and its worth every penny especially if you have long curly thick hair. In a regular table top bonnet I spend 2 hours and 15 mins to dry completely. In the Kwik I spend ONE HOUR, that is drastic time difference, and it has to do with the design of the dryer. Also your technique in doing your rollers, always make sure your ends are combed out and spread out onto the roller (sort of like stuck to the roller)- the ends are the most important technique of roller setting your hair. I finish up with ironing all other areas that are not completely straight afterwards but without ironing to the ends. I have used the table top Bonnet for 20+ years, its uncomfortable because you always have to strategically place it you are always stiff because you can't move when you have huge rollers in, (I use the Purple and Black Ones- I think its standard colors per sizes). Also part each roller with about the same amount of hair especially the middle/back of your head. I regret not investing in Kwik sooner. Oh Also I don't set the heat higher than 60 on the marker, and set to one hour and i am done my hair is thick, retains water, really curly down to my waist. Hope this helps. Best, Lulu.

It's fantastic...use mine almost daily...I also have a firmer roller...no comparison...this softer roller is luxury. I use it to do the MELT Method.

no . you have to replace rollers. that's why my wife wanted entire set. It is almost as cheap and you get new unit.

I couldn't find any large rollers any where for sale. I have a lot of hair so I bought these as extra set. I bought a bigger set at Sally Beauty. I use like 12 total.

Hi: I bought it because I was traveling to South America where the current is 220 volts. I used it and it was hot enough. The advantage is the dual voltage. I wish they could bring more big rollers. I tried hard to look for bigger one in dual voltage but couldn't find at the time I need it. Hope this helps.

I have never had to reorder new rollers. Over the many years I have bought 3 sets of these heated rollers (the best and my favorite) and I have always had the old rollers to refill my need of smaller rollers. I immediately throw out the large rollers and use all of the medium and smaller ones. Sometimes, you will find that rollers from other sets do fit on the post. I did that for a while until I built up my smaller roller stock.

I'm trying to figure out that myself. The size of the rollers in both units are exactly the same, so are the number of rollers.
