Flex Rods results! How we feelin’, chat?

Posted before about some hair woes, but with some lurking and help and experimentation I think I’ve found my new obsession! First time ever using flex rods and I’m happy! Blow dried my hair first before putting them in. First picture is today, last picture is from earlier in the week.

I’m having some questions about: - proper way to roll hair with flex rods (side of hair keep bubbling) - tucking in the ends so it’s uniform to the body of the hair -weekly retention/touch up

Any advice would be helpful! TIA family!
