Heatless Curls Step-by-Step
Step 1 – Apply mousse
Start off by applying some hydrating mousse to the ends of your hair. Place a small amount in the palm of your hand and run evenly through your locks for long-lasting, perfectly-defined waves. For extra definition, apply to damp or towel dried hair.
Step 2 – Roll into sections
It’s time to grab your bendy rollers and begin! Take a section of hair and wrap it around your roller, working from the ends to the roots and rolling under. Make sure it’s wrapped neatly and tightly, and then bend the ends of the roller together to secure in place. Repeat until all of your hair is secured in rollers.
Top tip: Wrap bigger sections for looser, larger curls.
Step 3 – Secure with hairspray
For extra hold and shine, finish with a spritz of hair spray. The longer you leave your rollers in, the more defined your curls will be. Leave them in for a few hours before a night out, or wear overnight for maximum staying power.
Step 4 – Remove rollers and brush through
Now for the big finish. Carefully unravel your rollers to reveal wonderfully-defined waves – all achieved without any heat. For a more natural finish, comb through gently with a hair brush and you’re good to go!
