Hair tools such as curling irons are supposed to be invaluable tools when styling your hair. However, as they say, technology has its dark side for humanity. Don’t want to damage your hair, let’s find out the best heatless styling methods here!
I. How Do You Get Heat Damage?
Yes, hair irons can be lifesavers and timesavers, but always remember that they could also be a destroyer. Putting an excessive amount of heat with a flat iron, curling iron, curling wand, etc. onto your hair can create heat damage.
Heat damage happens when you apply too much heat to hair strands. It can make the hair dry, and no longer in its natural state. Heat damage can occur with your natural hair and hair extensions. Leaving your electric hair iron on one spot on your hair is a mistake many people make when trying to style their hair with heat. Heat damage is possible when repeatedly using electric hair iron every day. This could also happen when the hotness is set too high on iron.
II. How To Curling Hair Without Heat?
We all know how damaging heat is to our hair, but it’s even more of a problem when it comes to hair extensions. Cause unlike our own hair, they receive no oils from the scalp so are prone to drying out, leaving a stiff and ratty tangled mess behind – not a good look!
Here’s a list of some different ways you can achieve gorgeous runway curls, without any damage.
Heatless Styling #1. Velcro Rollers 90s Blowout
The 90s are back in a big way and we are loving how big hair is a thing again. To get a 90s-inspired fluffy hair look all you need are a set of hair rollers and some hair spray. This no-heat tutorial is great for beginners who want to achieve a blowout look without any fancy hair tools or those who just want to jump in on this retro trend.
- Step #1: Wash and blow-dry your hair until it’s almost fully dry.
- Step #2: Use a rat tail comb to separate your hair into different sections. Use a gentle spritz of hair spray all over.
- Step #3: Now it’s time to get rolling! You can roll your hair inwards or outwards depending on the style you want to recreate. Today we are going to roll inwards for this hair tutorial to frame our faces.
- Step #4: Leave velcro rollers in for 20 to 30 minutes. Once time is up, spritz on hair spray again so the hairstyle will hold its shape.
Heatless Styling #2. Heatless Headband
Don’t have time to wait for your curls to dry? That’s okay! If you want a simple tutorial that doesn’t require multiple clips and pins, this technique is perfect for you since all it requires is a single headband. A typical headband makes it very easy to curl your hair overnight. This method doesn’t make tight rolls so much as it does loose waves.
- Step #1: With the headband around your head and your hair damp, begin by dividing your hair into two sections.
- Step #2: Then, twist each section away from your face wrapping each twisted section over and under the headband until you reach the end of your hair.
- Step #3: Use some hairspray to hold everything in place and let your style set. Be sure to let your hair dry completely before letting it down.
Heatless Styling #3. Overnight Heatless “Robe” Tie
This method is sort of like the headband method, but it tends to make much more bouncy, ring-like curls rather than gentle waves. Take a t-shirt and twist it in on itself until it makes a rope. Tie the ends of the “rope” together with a hair tie. Place it on your head. Then, starting from the front, pull up a section of hair and wind it around the halo. Once it’s all wound up, wait until it’s dry and remove the halo. Use your fingers to separate the curls so you don’t deflate them.
Heatless Styling #4. Overnight Braids
Braiding your hair is one of the quickest, easiest, and most cost-effective ways how to curl hair extensions without heat at home to get loose curls. Before you go to bed, take a shower and let your hair dry most of the way. Then put it into loose braids.
Upon waking up, you can take your hair out of the braids, then brush through it with a wide brush or wide-toothed comb to separate the curls. Just remember to braid as close to the bottom as possible so you don’t have a significant amount of uncurled hair.
While every single heatless technique may not work for everyone, remember to be patient; it’s truly a matter of trial and error. You also can refer to this post to know better about the way to make the curl last longer. And depending on the length and natural texture of your hair, its ability to hold a curl, and your personal preference, you may find that some heatless curling methods work better than others. Heatless hair curls are great for the life of your hair extensions. It prevents hair damage, and it helps to have healthy hair. It is better to style with healthy hair than to style with heat-damaged hair.
