Folica.com Review: BaByliss PRO Ceramic 20 Roller Setter

folica.com, the web’s best source for hair care products and appliances

Want sexy waves or tight curls? The BaByliss Ceramic Pro Hair setter can help you achieve any and all curly looks without damaging your hair.

curly-hair-styleFor years, I have been searching for a styling tool to help provide a consistent curl. My hair is naturally wavy on top, curly underneath and frizzy all over. I have been using my flat iron to add waves, but I have been looking for something more practical. I have spent hundreds of dollars on styling tools over the years. Recently, a friend told me Babyliss hot rollers are the best she has ever used, so I had to try them for myself. 

Folica generously sent me the BaByliss PRO Ceramic 20 Roller Setter for review. The BaByliss PRO 20 Roller Set provides infrared heat to give you faster, gentler styling.  Designed to eliminate damaging hot spots and provide maximum heat transfer.

At first glance, the BaByliss PRO Ceramic Set appeared to have the same high quality of professional rollers. The base includes a “ready” light that will appear red when the rollers are ready to use.

BaByliss PRO Ceramic 20 Roller Setter Includes

  • 8 Jumbo Rollers
  • 6 Medium Rollers,
  • 6 Small Rollers
  • 20 Butterfly Clips
  • 20 Metal Pins
  • 2 Year Limited Warranty

hot roller reviewI have very long, thick and coarse hair. I have a hard time finding products to work well with my hair type. These are by far the best rollers I have ever used!  The velvet flocked rollers easily “grabbed” onto my hair. For me, it was necessary to use both the metal pins and butterfly clips. My hair stayed in place while setting. I removed the rollers after 15 minutes and was left with beautiful, soft curls. I brushed them out to produce sexy, natural looking waves. When I use my BaByliss rollers, my hairstyle stays in place throughout the day.

The BaByliss PRO Ceramic 20 Roller Setter is easy to use. Many setters I have used in the past leave a crease, pull and snag at my hair. These were exactly the opposite. There is no pulling, no snagging, no creasing- just soft, shiny, healthy hair.  The rollers themselves are easy to grip and makes using hot rollers a fun and painless experience. I also like the on/off button feature. It is very convenient when your electrical outlet is in a hard to reach place. These are great for at home and definitely for travel.

Flat Iron Experts - H & R Flat Iron Review


Flat Iron Experts is more then just on online beauty store. In addition to selling the best flat irons, professional styling tools, professional haircare products, cosmetics and the best hair straighteners, they also specialize in professional reviews, free product recommendations and education on today's most popular flat irons.

Finding the best flat iron for your hair isn't always an easy task. Many flat irons claim to have "Ceramic" or "Tourmaline" plates, while they are actually made with paint-coated aluminum plates. I had this problem with the first flat iron I ever owned and the coating came off after only a few uses. Flat Iron Experts are eager to help assist you  in finding the best hair straightener for you.


The H&R Tourmaline Ceramic Flat Iron is one of the most popular flat irons sold in the beauty industry today. It is equipped with the latest tourmaline and ceramic technology that will help you straighten, curl or flip your hair with ease. The tourmaline ceramic plates on this straightener distribute heat across the entire surface evenly, eliminating damaging hot spots. This affordable flat iron eliminates frizz and creates a lasting, smooth and shiny finish.


My H&R flat iron did everything I hoped it would! I have long, thick, coarse, and dry hair. Normally, it takes me hours to straighten all of my hair.The H&R flat iron straightened my hair in just 30 minutes. It is very lightweight and heated up in just a matter of seconds. Flat irons made without a swivel cord tend to tangle easily, so I appreciated the tangle-free swivel cord on this flat iron. The suspended plate technology prevents hair snagging, which is another great feature to have. To put this technology to the test, I purposely tried to make the ceramic plates snag my hair. I am telling you, it is impossible! I couldn't believe how great my hair looked! When I finished straightening my hair, every strand was visibly straight, from root to tip. Not only was my hair straight, it felt incredibly silky smooth. My hair even looked and felt healthier and less damaged.

H&R Flat Iron Features:
  • 1" (90x24 mm) tourmaline ceramic plates
  • Adjustable temperature ( 140 - 410° F)
  • Super fast ceramic heating elements ensures a rapid heat up to maximum temperature in seconds
  • Flashing indicator instruct you it is ready for use
  • Professional tourmaline plates produce maximum amount of negative ions to create amazing shiny and silky finish
  • Professional 3 meter 360° swivel cord -never tangles
  • Infrared rays to heat more gently
  • Slim and ergonomic design for easy use
  • On/Off button
  • AC 110V 60Hz for use in USA/Canada
  • One-year limited warranty
My hair is normally curly/ wavy, dry, frizzy and well...see for yourself:


After just one use with Flat Iron Expert's H&R Flat Iron:


I am so impressed with the amazing results. My hair feels softer, appears shiny and not so dry/ damaged and is much more manageable.
