Easy to use, worth the $

Quick Take: fantastic, high quality
I am a curler dork. Never have been able to use them, have tried several times. I bought these because they looked different than the others. They are amazing! Easy to use, style lasts all day, makes hair shinier and softer than before you put them in. Worth the money, get them, you won't be sorry.

Perfect set for daily use as well as travel use
-01.12.13
Quick Take: amazing!
Purchased the $99 set which heats 6 at a time, saving $50 on the set that heats 12 at a time. If you replace the first six with the second six, there is almost no waiting time as the rollers heat rapidly. (Plus, smaller base takes up less room for packing.) They are very comfortable and lightweight and curl hair perfectly! Very, very satisfied with this purchase. I am throwing out all other heat rollers I own.

"I have very fine limp hair in which getting volume is a challenge. I ordered the Ion rollers because it seemed to be the answer to all my prayers. This tool is so easy to use unlike traditional rollers. I get a ton of volume with only a few rollers.

Love the rollers.....
-10.22.12
I was never a hot roller kind of girl, they always burned my fingers trying to put them in and then there was never enough so I would just use a curling iron. I had tried these rollers and loved how they heated up so quickly. There's more then enough for my hair and the curl lasts all day long. I now get the body and shine, and I must say my favorite is the traveling pouch and how everything fits right in there so your not carrying some big bulky thing of rollers around on vacation or even to work if you wanna quick touch up for a hot date afterwards!!!!

LOVE THEM!!!!
-08.30.12
These have been my life saver!!!! My hair is fine and straight. I put the rollers in and I have all day beautiful hair. People on the reviews have said that there ends get frizzy.... You need to make sure with ANY hot roller that your ends are wrapped around the roller and flat. I put these on while I'm in the shower and they are ready to go when I get out. Love not having to style my hair everyday as I use these on my second day of washed hair. Everyone needs calista hot rollers !!!!

Disappointed
-08.27.12
I was so excited to purchase these rollers, and was therefore very disappointed when they didn't deliver great results. The curls did not stay well and my hair didn't look smooth, the ends looked ratty. Definitely not worth the money in my opinion, I get better results from my cheap 1995 hot rollers. Perhaps these are more suited for thicker, textured hair; I have shoulder length fine straight hair.

Good but didn't hold the curl
-06.25.12
This product is great and works really fast however didn't hold the curls--even with lots of hair spray. Not sure if it was due to the length of my hair. Didn't realize till after the fact that this company made rollers for long hair. Decided to return it and go with another product.

I wrote a full review for the long ones... I bought both and love both the long and short sets. Works great together! Something I forgot to mention in my other review is that the case is awesome and super easy to travel with! Would buy many times over if needed.

Quick Take: multi-purpose, time saving, heats quickly
This set is very easy and quick in use. It is much better than conedison where after some time your rollers are bold and you make damage to your hear and fingers.

Disappointed
-05.07.12
I was disappointed with this product and would not recommend it for the following reasons: (1) The rollers do not get hot, they are just lukewarm which leads to lackluster results (2) The set comes with 12 rollers but you can only heat up 6 at time which really slows you down (3) My volume only lasted for about 2 hours then my hair fell flat (I have thick hair) (4) My oldschool hot rollers give me better, longer lasting results than these rollers. In summary, I don't see why these rollers are so expensive when they really don't deliever

Great for volume
-04.27.12
Quick Take: time saving, heats quickly
Got my hair cut much shorter than usual and wanted to get these to add some volume to my hair. These do the job great. Heat up in no time. Don't burn your fingers when you go to handle them. Only have to leave them in a few minutes and you've got plenty of volume. Very happy with them.

Quick Take: time saving, heats quickly
I have these rollers as well as the long ones and they really help add volume to my hair. My hair length is medium/long so I use the long set when I want curl and these shorter ones to give my volume on "flat hair" day. Takes minutes off of getting ready in the morning!

Terrible
-04.18.12
Quick Take: not worth the money
I have fine hair that normally curls amazingly. My problem with curlers is it usually curls too much. Not the case with these. I gave them two chances and both times my hair ended up frizzy and kind of kinky. I am sending them back today!
