- Will you hide them in a closet or cabinet?
- Would you prefer to have them out in the open for easy access?
- How many different types of rollers do you have?
- How much space will each type of roller require?
If you are planning to hide the rollers in a cabinet or closet, you can buy cheap plastic boxes from a discount store. If you have a store like Family Dollar or Dollar General in your area, you can typically find plastic shoe boxes for about $1. Stores like Wal-Mart and Target will have these boxes too, but you will pay twice as much. You can buy a box for each type of roller. What's great about these boxes is that they are translucent and stackable, making it easier to grab the rollers whenever you're ready for them. There are high-end versions of these boxes like the ones below, but if they are going to be hidden, there's really no need to spend the extra money, princess. This is one way I store rollers that I don't use on a regular basis. Once you have the box, you can tuck them away in your closet, under your bed, in your linen closet or wherever you want to put them.
Now, for rollers you use daily or on a weekly basis, you want to have easy access. You might even want the storage box to be pretty to look at if you're going to leave it out on your dresser or bathroom cabinet. For that, I recommend a trip to Marshalls or TJMaxx. They always have super cute fabric boxes. If you're lucky, you can find the ones with a see through window. I have a zebra print print one that I scored from Marshalls that I store my flexi rods in. I paid $12.99 for the one I have, but they can range depending on the size. You can also find solid colored boxes at Office Depot, The Container Store, Crate and Barrel, etc.
Boxes with lids are my preferred method of storage, but you might consider a rolling trolley. They are sold at Sally Beauty. You typically see them in beauty salons. You can also find cheaper versions at discount stores: stackable rolling drawers.
The options are limitless, it really depends on what you're looking for.

thanks for this post, my rollers are stored haphazardly under the bathroom sink with a whole bunch of other mess and this has really given me some ideas and inspired me to go out and get or make some pretty boxes that coordinate with my pretty yellow vintage hooded dryer. This will move me one step closer to my fantasy "primping" area that I will set up when I have the space:)
