Step 3

You may think hot rollers create only old-school poodle curls, but they're actually the secret weapon behind the incredible body and shine of Cosmo cover hairstyles. "Since you'll be rolling large sections, you'll get lots of body, plus a little curve and finish on the ends, and the heat creates brilliant shine — all the things that make for the tremendous tress sex appeal on the front of every issue," says Oribe. And the rollers work their magic on curly and straight hair alike (unless your hair is supercurly, in which case you'll need to blow-dry your strands straight before you begin). Don't have a set? They're surprisingly affordable and available at any drugstore or beauty-supply store. We like Conair Instant Heat Hairsetter, $34.99.

How to use them:

#Separate the center section of your mane, as if you were creating a 2-inch wide mohawk starting at your forehead and going back to your nape, then create a loose ponytail on each side of your head. Pull a 2-inch-deep section from the front of the mohawk, hold it taut, place a roller on top of the ends, and roll it away from your face, all the way to your scalp. Repeat until the whole center section is in rollers.

# Next, take one ponytail out of the elastic and work on rolling up that side. Take a 2-inch section of hair from your temple and pull it up and across your forehead, then hold a roller diagonally on top of the ends, roll it to your scalp, and secure it. This will give that area major lift. Tip: Keep some tissues nearby to prop under any rollers that feel too hot on your skin. # Now take the section of hair directly below that roller and roll it halfway up so face-framing pieces will be sleek with a slight bend.

# Finish rolling under
any remaining hair from that side, securing rollers at the scalp. Repeat on the other side of your head. "Your hair needs to cool for about 10 minutes before you take out the rollers, so this is a great time to do your makeup," suggests Oribe. Cosmo cover hair, by the way, doesn't have to be long. So don't worry if your strands are too short for rollers — just follow the same rolling instructions, but instead use a 1-inch barrel curling iron to get Cosmo-fied volume at the roots and curve at the ends.
