Salon-perfect hairat home? Marina Rust masters the modern set.

What goes around comes around.

"For all of history, hair was set ," says the hairdresser Ashley Javier, showing me a portrait of Sophia Loren in a book of photographs. "Hair was twisted in rags at Versailles; flappers did flat spit curls; then it was big pin curls and Veronica Lake."

Sunlight pours into the Parlor, Javier's by-invitation-only salon/penthouse above lower Fifth Avenue.

"PenA[c]lope Cruz loves a big set," he continues. "ChloA' Sevigny likes it smooth, but with a wave down here [he gestures, shoulder length], so we do big pin curls. None of my clients want to look overdone or too coiffed ."

Javier does the cool girls: Jacquetta Wheeler, Joy Bryant, Sasha Heinz, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld. I'm not cool, and until now my at-home roller routine didn't seem so either. But today I've been invited to the Parlor to learn what I've known for a long time, that settingthe age-old method of drying hair in placeworks for everyone, whether hair is long or short, wavy or straight. The term set may sound old-fashioned, but the new set has new edge. It swings; it moves. It's hair that looks high maintenance, but it's not.
