Abstract: A flexible hair roller having a soft cylindrical central core surrounded by and sealed within a soft towel-like outer covering. A snap and a snap catch are located at opposite ends of the flexible hair roller so that the roller can be folded back and closed upon itself with the opposite ends being detachably connected together to form a loop configuration. By virtue of the foregoing, the wearer is able to achieve a variety of hair styles (e.g. a spiral curl) without using caustic chemicals or damaging heat or requiring that the hair be wet. Moreover, the flexible hair roller is washable, lightweight so as to be easily packaged and transported, and comfortable to wear through the night.
