You have probably seen the trend with heatless curls on Instagram or Tiktok and want to try it yourself. We have gathered our best tips on how to do heatless curls so you can get beautiful curls without hot styling tools.

How to use a heatless curler - your step-by step guide

1. Start with clean, 90% dry hair

Before using your heatless curler, make sure your hair is clean and almost dry. Wet or very damp hair will not hold curls well and hair is very delicate when wet. Having hair almost dry rather than completely dry will mean that there is still some elasticity to hold the curls well.

2. Divide hair and place heatless curler over head

Divide your hair using a middle parting so that you have hair in two equal sections. Place the silk curling rod over your head so that you have an even amount of ribbon hanging on either side of your face. You will use this heatless curl rod to curl each section of hair around in the next step.

First, take a small section of hair from the front of your face and wrap it once around the silk heatless curling ribbon, wrapping away from the face. When you go to wrap a second time, take another small section of hair together with the first strand and wrap them together. With each wrap, continue this process until all hair on that side of your head has been wrapped around the silk heatless curler.

4. Secure the silk heatless hair curler with a silk scrunchie 

Once you have wrapped all hair on one side of the head around the heatless curler, secure it in place with a scrunchie. Always make sure to use a silk scrunchie or silk hair tie to keep the curler securely in place, as silk hair scrunchies are soft and gentle on the hair to prevent hair breakage and tugging.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 with the other half of your hair on the other side.

6. Leave the heatless curler in overnight or for at least 2 hours

For best results, leave your silk heatless hair curler in overnight for at least 7 hours as this will help to ensure your curls hold for longer.

By following our heatless curler guide above, you can use a silk heatless hair curler to achieve beautiful, bouncy curls and the whole process takes under 5 minutes once after a few practices!
