I’m on the hunt for these bigoden/ hourglass rollers?

Does anyone know where I can order them from?
I cannot order from bellacapelliusa.com because they do not ship to Canada.

High Protein Diet, 1 Inch a Month, Fast Hair Growth Challenge
July 1st - Dec 31st 2026​


Hey guys! During a bunch of searching it's evident that some women who have had fast hair growth of at least 1 inch per month had a similar thing in common, they would intake a lot of protein. So I want to do my own high protein diet challenge and see if I can achieve it too!

I have always had fine, thin and slow growing hair (grows about ¼ inch per month) and it’s becoming even...

I think I'm ready to wear my hair curly/kinky 80+% of the time. (I imagine I will straighten it on very special occasions, such as for weddings, Valentine's Day, etc.)

RosieCurlyCrown is my inspiration.

Has anyone else taken this step . . . moving from MAINLY wearing your natural hair straightened to committing to hardly ever flat ironing? (I will be wearing stretched styles such as twist outs, flexi rod sets, etc.)
What led you to make this choice?​
