I have never been able to do a proper roller set. With this video I was able to do it perfectly on the first try. Gennifer takes you through the process of shampooing, conditioning and setting your relaxed hair with easy, logical explanations of each step. She discusses the types of rollers and clips to use - and those make such a difference! I always thought I'd never be able to do this but now I can, and I can do it quickly too!

The Healthy Textures' Guide to Roller Setting takes you through the entire styling process from start to finish. Using myself as a model, I will show you how to:*Properly wash and condition the hair for easier manageability*Set the hair on magnetic rollers for super soft, bouncy hair*Use roller tension to reduce frizzy hair and puffy roots*Place the clips so that the set will not wobble or feel insecure*Style the hair to maintain the curls or straighten for a sleek, flat-ironed look.Here are some additional DVD benefits!1. Save Time No more spending hours in a crowded salon for an overbooked stylist. Set your hair on YOUR time and use products that work for YOU!2. Save Money The average salon visit is approximately $35. With tax, tip and travel, it can easily inflate to $50 a visit. Let's say you frequent the salon 2-3 times a month. That's $1,200-$1,300 a year on salon visits. What could you do with an extra $1,000 in cash?3. Improve the Health and Condition of Your Hair Roller Setting is considered to be one of the healthiest styling methods for the hair. By using an indirect heat source (a hood dryer), the hair is able to retain more moisture and natural sheen. With this styling method, you will start to see stronger, healthier hair in no time!4. Discover a New Twist on Roller SettingLong gone are the days of hard, stiff curls! In this DVD, we will use a Dominican influenced method of Roller Setting, which will focus on deep conditioning and minimal product while setting. The end result is shiny, bouncy hair that is soft to the touch. By reducing the amount product used, the hair is also easier to straighten for a sleek look. 5. Developed with YOU in MindModels need not apply! Unlike most styling videos in which the host works on a model, I will set my own hair. This way, you can actually see what it will be like to set your hair at home. In addition, I will use the "Mohawk/rolling up" method, which is designed to be easy on the arms and even easier to duplicate at home!About the HostGennifer Miller is the founder to Healthytextures.com, which is website advocating a Do-It-Yourself approach to healthier hair. On this website, she has dozens of articles and mini video tutorials on healthy hair care and styling. Her site receives thousands of hits a day and has an international following.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

227 - The Complete First Season (1985) Review

227 - The Complete First Season (1985)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It is really great that Columbia Tri Star is brining back some of the class African-American comedies from the 70's and 80's to DVD. These shows were enjoyed by all. The first season of 227 we really learn about the foundation of the characters on 227, Mary, Lester and her daughter Brenda. It was nice to see Marla Gibb in a role where she wasn't a maid but a wife and mother. Her and Lester had a nice family. The late Helen Martin shines as the elderly wise cracking neighbor Pearl and Jackee Harry is quite funny as Sexy Sandra. I really enjoy this show because these were working class people who often found themselves in funny predicaments that usually were solved by the end of the show. Some of the funniest episodes on this set include the episode when the people in the building think they have won the lottery, the episode when Brenda has a crush on Calvin and turns to Sandra for advice and the first episode when Mary accidently hits a car and leaves a note on the car only to have another car come along and almost destroy the car. I hope that future seasons make it to DVD also. The first three seasons were the funniest! I purchase a lot of these DVD's to let my family watch because some of these older shows are a lot better than these new shows.

I think this is one of the best comedy series I have ever seen! I am so happy that finally the 1st season is out, although I will also like to have all 5 complete seasons. Thank you!

Michael Kyle (Damon Wayans) longs for a traditional life, but his day trader wife Janet (Tisha Campbell-Martin) and three brooding children make his dream just that - a dream. Watch how it all began with the complete first season. With Wayans at the helm, this is no ordinary family comedy.
