fine for the price [SEP] i am a senior with fine limp hair i have to avoid electric curling iron on the thinning hair areas i cannot use the heated curlers because they are too heavy and do not hold my hair and velcro curlers are out because they pull my hair outthese foam curlers are my only option of course they are flimsy and must be handled gently when putting them in and taking them out none of mine have broken if careful you can bend them right in place
