it was sort of easy to use and stayed up all day [SEP] after taking it down i smoothed out the metal wires and i used it again the next day so far the wires have held i have been using it for so far and no problemsthe biggest problem i have is really just my problem not a problem with the itemmy arms are not able to go back far enough to get my hair close to the ends before i roll it up that makes it so my hair is not very smooth and it rolls up with ends of hair sticking out in placesi have used the same one about a dozen times and it still has some life left
