Make Soft Hair Rollers

Making soft rollers is an interesting DIY project that can prevent expensive visits to the salon for curls that don't last, or putting up with the uncomfort of hard hair rollers.


Getting and maintaining elegant and professional looking curls isn't always easy. Women often pay a lot to visit hair salons to get curls that don't even last an entire day. If it seems like you are wasting money to get curls done professionally, and if you refuse to deal with the discomfort and inconvenience of hard rollers, soft hair rollers may be the perfect option. You can make soft hair rollers as an interesting and straightforward DIY project with supplies available around the house.


Instructions


1. Cut fabric in 3" by 9" rectangles. For a range of different curler sizes, the width can be between 2" and 4."


2. Fold the rectangular cutout in half lengthways with the fabric inside out. Iron the fabric.


3. Measure 4" from the top corner of the rectangle and make a mark at the 4" point.


4. Draw dashed lines, starting at the 4" mark, leaving about a 1/4 inch border.


5. Sew along the dashed line and tack multiple times to ensure durability. Leave one side open.


6. Cut a small corner at an angle, being careful not to cut what you have already sewn.


7. Turn the cloth inside out, so the pattern faces you. Gently using scissors to help push the cloth on to the right side can make the process less tricky.


8. Stuff the poly-fill through the opening and sew the open end closed. After sewing the open end, do not cut off the excess fabric.


9. Sew the opening of the remaining fabric closed and make a button hole to fit the size and shape of your button. Make the hole between the top edge of the curler and the row of stitches you previously made to hem in the poly-fill.


10. Sew the button on at the top of the previously stuffed end of the curler.
