Curls. We all want ’em, but getting perfect curls can sometimes be a challenge. You want a method that is quick, easy and one where the curls will actually stay. The good news is you don’t have to be a pro to getting perfect curls or need a lot of time to get it done. Heatless methods are the best ways to achieving the perfect look and we tried one method out with heatless hair curlers that actually works! It is the perfect lazy girl hair method, and we are loving it!
We tried out a heatless curl rod not thinking it was going to work, but boy were we wrong! It worked better than we thought. See below how it works and our tricks to getting the perfect curl. You got this girl!
Heatless Curling Tool
Heatless Curling Rod headband
What a simple tool to use! Made out of rubber and satin, the heatless curling wand headband won’t harm your hair and is soft on your head. The longer length is perfect for those with long hair to wrap their hair around and it comes with a hair clip to keep the rod in place, as well as 2 satin scrunchies to secure the ends of your hair to the rod. The technique of wrapping your hair around it is super easy (we will give the steps below) and the hairclip keeps it all in place. Your hair will curl in 3-6 hours, and you can sleep with it longer for a tighter and longer lasting curl.
Heatless Curling Method
Preparing your hair to curl
- You want to ensure your hair is about 98% dry. If your hair is wet and you are blow drying it, blow dry until it is slightly damp. Your hair needs to be slightly damp and not wet, or the hair won’t hold a curl.
- If your hair is completely dry, lightly spritz it with a spray bottle.
- You can add in any hair product to your hair at this point.
Steps to curling your hair
- Next, place the heatless hair curlers rod on top of your head and clip the hair claw to the top of your head. (You will have a piece of the rod hanging down evenly on each side.)
- Begin on one side and wrap small sections of hair around the rod. After you have wrapped it, gather a section of hair from the hair hanging down and join it with this section. Continue this process all way down your hair until no hair is left to wrap.
- Make sure the pieces wrapped around the rod are flat and touching with no spaces in between.
- Once you get to the end, wrap a scrunchie around the bottom of rod.
- Repeat entire process on the other side.
setting time
- You can sleep on it to have longer lasting curls. I will say, it isn’t the best sleep ever with it, but you can manage it and you get used to it.
- Otherwise, 3-6 hours work as well. So just set in the morning or afternoon before going out at night or before an event. Super quick and easy if you know you are going to be tight on time to get ready.
unleashing those curls
- When you are ready to undo the curling rod, start on one side removing the scrunchie and unraveling your hair.
- Continue on the other side. Once your hair is unraveled, unclip the hair claw.
- Now marvel at those beautiful curls! Amazing, right? I know. It’s pretty much magic and you didn’t have to do much to get them.
- Run your hands through the curls, add in some texture spray and brush curls so they look looser.
- Enjoy your beautiful curls!
As you can see, heatless hair curlers make it pretty simple. The hardest part is just sleeping with it on your head if you go that route. Honestly, the rest is simple! I loved the beautiful curls it created and how you just set it and forget it. What do you think? Would you try it? Let us know in the comments below.
