Question: How long should I dry my hair in rollers under a hooded dryer? What setting should I use?

Answer: Twenty to forty-five minutes should be sufficient for drying a roller set, depending upon how long your hair is. The setting should never be so high that you are uncomfortable and your scalp burns. It is always safest to dry hair for a longer period of time on a lower setting. Switch to a cool setting for the last five minutes.
