For girls with thick hair who don't get flawless results: our hair isn't meant for heatless styles that include water. Since our hair is thick and being compressed with twists and braids, your hair will take FOREVER to dry and when you think that it's time to un-twist your hair, chances are that it'll still be a bit damp and your hair will get poofy and frizzy once it completely dries after undoing your twists/braids. So from someone with thick hair who has tried SEVERAL heatless methods, I have found that damping your hair with gel does wonder! it keeps your curls in place and your hair won't get poofy or frizzy. I use the Suave max hold sculpting gel 8. it's cheap, non-sticky, fast drying and alcohol-free! btw it doesn't leave your hair feeling crunchy or stiff.. depending on how much you use of course. Really hope this helps someone :)
This is definitely the best review of this method I’ve seen, especially on short hair. Love that you thought about the back of your head while you were doing it, instead of just curling in the front and then complaining about the back like a few people I’ve seen. Also liked that you didn’t go in with heat but actually fluffed them and made it work without fixing it with heat straight away, I haven’t seen anyone do that but it actually looked so good once you fluffed it out like that and didn’t even need heat! And thank you for the end of day update too.
Just a tip - to get the hair more curly at the back, you add sections from the back AND The front as you are twisting around the rope, so the back pieces get incorporated into it xx
Hello, everyone!!! I would first like to comment that I was an Irish dancer growing up. So, this is a lot more comfortable, than sleeping in the plastic curlers that I did. And, just so you know, I was not part of the wig phase. We used to curl our hair naturally. I blame Michael Flatley for this... When I first found out that this method existed, just about three months ago, I was so ecstatic. The beautiful thing, about my hair, is that it takes curls amazingly well. I just don't like using a curler. My hair isn't damaged and I want to keep it that way. So, I have shoulder length hair right now and it is pretty fine, and I would suggest, using a bandana. So you don't have to buy a robe to get the rope with it. Only use the bathrobe if you have seriously long hair. And, since I have done this about six times now, at the end of the bandana, there isn't much left. So place the little bit of bandana over your hair, when you twist it, and then put it in a hair tie or scrunchie. I prefer just a hair tie. I don't like the scrunchy feeling. As for product, I sometimes, spray some hairspray, after both buns are made. But, you absolutely have to, damp your hair, to keep it curly all day. I also I have a subscription to Ipsy and I recently got a leave-in conditioner. What I do is spray a small amount in my hand, first, and then scrunch up my hair, and it instantly, becomes frizz-free. So that is something that worked for me. I hope this is helpful and I am so glad, Milabu, you did this!!! You looked beautiful and it just takes a couple of times to figure it out. And, if you do want to do this in the morning, keep it in for at least 5 to 8 hours. Even two hours, my hair is completely curled.
I tried this last night. I was REALLY REALLY happy with the results. I have a side part, and it was difficult for me to wrap my hair around the robe chord on my deep side, but this was overall the best method for heatless curls overnight. For years i've used pigtail braids, french braids and dutch braids. but my hair was always wavy and messy. This hairstyle works the best on both short and long hair. I've seen a lot of reviews on this method and a lot of girls were very impressed/satisfied with their results. I would definitely recommend using this technique!
@@candaceion9622 i did it on the side, spliting it in the middle got uncomfortable and when i resplit my hair, some of the hair went in the opposite direction
I love how you would always do a quick preview/ update at the end of the day to show us how they fell out. Thanks this way we have a better idea ! 😍😍😍🎀
I tried this method. My hair is about the same length as yours. I folded the robe belt is half. It made bigger curls and wasn’t as awkward to sleep in. You look stunning with this style❤️❤️
I've been doing this for a while. My hair is medium length, straight and fine. My hair doesn't usually hold a curl for more than an hour, but this wave will stay in my hair for two days. I double the belt for bigger curls/waves and wrap my damp hair around and secure overnight (not the most comfortable). In the morning I get an amazing beachy wave and I love it. 🌊
Let's just face it; you have a magical touch when it comes to hair. I have tried this before and the results were so so for me. I am going to get a bonnet hair dryer so I don't have to sleep with these uncomfortable situations. I remember being so happy when blowdryers became prevalent because I hated the bonnets but they have their place.
Seriously this is just amazing. I ran into the shower to wet my hair and try this seconds after I watched this on Facebook. And I have never had so many compliments on my hair ever! My hair is long, vawy/curly and dry and kind of thin and this made it so voluminous and big. You look amazing and thanks for sharing! Also I added a bit of curl gel after to help with the frizz.
This is a new twist on what those of us born in the 50’s would do called rag curls. Yes this started during the depression when money was tight. Yes even the finest straightest hair like mine would curl like Shirley temple and last all day. This is how my grandma curled my hair for picture day
Rags curls have actually been around far longer than the great depression... it was a very popular curling method in the Victorian era and was very likely used by people prior to that.
I can't wait to try this! Please could you do an 'updated' testing of this method with products that work for you to get the frizz down and help the curls last all day? TY! 💖
I'm sitting here realizing I've been watching your videos for almost 4 years now. I donated my hair in 2016 and you totally gave me more confidence in doing being able to go through with it. You had almost white hair then haha but I loved watching your tutorials with a bunch of styles in one video. Love you girl!
Finally someone with hair my length so I can see how this works on shorter hair. Trying this for sure - your hair looks great and I’m happy you showed the back.
Definitely trying this tonight! I swear by just doing 2 rope braids before bed, and that gives me a nice beachy wave. This is beautiful, and not much different than what I already do. Thank you!
I swear I could wait 72 hours and my not thick hair would still not be dry in braids of any kind… no matter how small they are or even if my hair is like 90% dry.. it just like traps the moisture in 😫
This is the only way I’ve done my hair for the past month!! It’s amazing, I’m obsessed, and I’m sticking to it! I have long naturally wavy/frizzy hair and this looks amazing on it! I wash my hair about 2x a week and while it’s still pretty wet (more than damp), I add it’s a 10 serum to my ends and Paul Mitchell thicken up styling liquid to my roots. I do the robe tie twist method a little differently. For my very back sections on both side, I twist the alternating direction at the end. And after tying the ends, I leave the two twists falling straight down. I tried the side bun thingy to keep it out of the way at night and it made my curls deformed. So I sleep with them hanging down like pigtails and find it much more comfortable than tying them up also - I’m a side sleeper as well. In the morning, I take it all out, brush through them with my fingers or brush, apply hairspray as needed, and go on about my day! These curls do settle down to more waves after 3 or so days, but I still love the look on my long hair. And that’s it. I use no heat at all and wash my hair only 2x a week now and it’s grown so much since starting!!
@CaitlynKothe it's almost 2 years since you posted this comment so I don't know if you'll see my reply or answer it but I would love to hear how you do the very back section. I can't envision what you mean --- "For my very back sections on both side, I twist the alternating diredction at the end." Do you mean if you've been twisting all the hair away from your face you start twisting it towards your face? Doesn't mean that some of the hair falls off the belt because you twist your hair foward you are basically undoing what you've been twisting? Thank you for your explanation.
I’m glad to see someone doing this with shorter hair. I watched the first tutorial with someone with waist length hair and failed miserably. So I will definitely give this a try tonight. Thank you so much. You look very, very pretty. It’s very feminine. I’ve seen a few other TH-cam videos and they show you how to tie it up at night so that it doesn’t bother you when you sleep.
Side sleeper? Try this modification that works for me. Once I finish wrapping a side, I don’t just elastic the hair to the belt. Instead, I take a tiny section of the belt right where I’ve ended wrapping that side and fold it up over the very end of the wrapped hair, trapping the tail end of hair inside the little folded up belt section. Then I put an elastic around just that flip fold (so I don’t have to pull the entire length of the robe belt through the elastic.) Don’t do the “bun” thing with the long rope end. Instead, I just tie the two robe belt ends in a very loose knot behind my neck and sleep quite comfortably on my side. Love the results!
It's been ten months after my pixie haircut, thanks to the pandemic. I can color my hair myself (though I'd much rather not), but I can't cut it, so your channel is a godsend. Thanks for all the hairstyle and product videos so I can do something with my hair in this awful, in-between stage.
I tried this and loved the results. I have long hair and would like the curls to last longer, now I do need a cut so when that is allowed it might make the difference.
Tips for hair types (straight, wavy, and loose curls) Straight thin hair 1 common robe fabric works great, keeping the hair from slipping, and unlike other hair types, it doesn't cause much frizz 2 Wet your hair with just water until it's either wet enough it looks darker, or if you can't see it, until it's wet enough, you can wring it out and get DROPLETS of water 3 In any method, keep your hair tight. Your hair is the most likely to lose volume and texture quickly, so tight curls are easy to loosen, but not going tight enough means you'll have barely, if not any, any effect. 4 Hairspray with a decent or strong holding hairspray, this is after you brush it out to loosen it. You don't have to brush it out, but the hairspray is a must if you want it to last Straight, thick hair 1 Common fluffly robes works great for this method for your hair type as well since thickness won't affect you here. 2. Water will be helpful here, but instead of soaking your hair which will lead to parts of the hair still being damp and it drying frizzy, I suggest using a lightweight hair cream with a bit of water if it is water activated and putting that in your hair. When your hair either feels soft (like when conditioning) or sticky, depending on if you use cream or gel, that is when you're ready 3 I would still recommend keeping the curls tight in all methods due to the lack of texture in your hair 4. If you used a strong gel, you can get away with using a less strong hairspray, but still make sure to finger brush or fully brush and style before using the hairspray Wavy hair 1. If your hair has soft waves, this robe fabric will work fine, especially if you have thin hair. If you have tighter waves, it will depend on a large amount of factors. Because of this, when I don't have days and trails to test someone's hair, I recommend satin ribbon or a satin robe belt. Or even a different method altogether (the sock method works great, and there's a crown method with a robe that won't frizz your hair as bad as the twists). 2. If you've already done a hair wash day and have styling products in your hair, you can (with thick and tight wave hair) get away with having dry hair and no extra product. If you have thin or loose waves, I'd recommend adding in your favorite hold product, or if you don't use one regularly, a lightweight cream or mouse. Thin hair with water activated products can just add water, though, since the products should reactivate and you can twist without the fear of your hair not drying. 3. If you want those bouncy loose curls, go slightly tighter than you need to for it to hold its place, but you don't need to go extremely tight as it will be harder to loosen them. If you want tight ringlet curls, go tighter and use a wide tooth comb to loosen them after. It will loosen the tighter ones a bit but won't do it enough to get that bounce, which is why you can change depending on the desired look. 4. I would use a very light hairspray or even just use a bit of the previous product and coat the curls individually. You still need a hold. But not as strong as a heavy hairspray Loose Curly hair 1. Don't use those soft robes. Use satin ribbons or robe belts, and honestly, don't use this method. If you really want to, you can, but this method works better for those in the loose hair category. The crown, sock (use the outside of the sock, and a soft fabric), or even a twist method works fine. 2. If you have styling products in your hair already, you can go ahead and start. You can add more products, but as long as your products are keeping your natural hair in place, they should do the same for you now. 3. Unless you're testing to see if this will help your 6 day old hair revive, I would go as loose as you can with these. If you go tight, they'll clump and bunch together and be like your natural hair on a bad hair day. So just get your hair straight and loose as you can get it and then put it up. 4. If your products are strong enough, you should be golden by the end outside of some shaking to loosen the curls. If there's any you need to fix, it's the same as natural hair, a bit of product, and fixing up the ends. Oil or other frizz fixes if anything goes really wrong, and you should be golden Sorry this was long. Any questions and I'll answer as best I can. I realized I was having trouble finding new ways to do my hair that I didn't need to have this knowledge and understanding of my hair already to do and that others with different hair types than the people their watching might want these tips.
I’m always in the market for different ways to save my hair from heat- I’ll definitely have to try this! The curls came out super cute! With a little hair oil and a touch of hairspray you might be able to tame some of the frizz. Thanks for trying this out for us short-haired ladies :)
I did this last night and it worked really well! I usually have a hard time with heatless curls, but this was awesome. I have medium length, thick hair for reference!
this is what is called rag curls and we used a hair net over our heads when we were done. rag curls can be done individual or like you just did. the hair net was a triangle netting that was tied over the head (like a scarf), I always tied mine in the back so there were no bumps to sleep on. then we graduated to pin curls and I use to dry curl my hair at night, wrap it in the net and the curls would last from washing to washing. then we went to rollers (beer cans). those were awful to sleep on.
@@Jessicamae1988 both are rag curls. it can be done like you said or like this with a very long strip. my mom's mother did the long strip kind on them most of the time. she was born in 1912 and it was a thing her mother did on her as well :)
Exactly...do a front section...then a back section...like a French braided using the belt as the middle strand of hair...why not just French or Dutch braid your hair...same result?
@@eileenmaschal9505 It's definitely more curly with this method because the rope is much thicker than a hair strand is ( I have tried both methods). I hope this is helpful! I know I'm 8 months late so sorry if you already worked this out haha
I haven't done this style in a while and came to your video for a refresher! my hair length is to my hips. I've tried this method multiple times but my best results were when I used the "Beach Babe Soft Waves Sea Salt Spray" to mist my hair before I start wrapping it, and then really spray it all over once both sides are wrapped and I'm headed to bed! I love doing curls this way, no heat damage and takes me a lot less time💙
My mom actually did this when i was a kid. She would get an old bedsheet and cut it in pieces. We call it " papillotten". U can use it in many ways. Like u did around the head, or just like little bits and pieces at a time.
Trying this for the first time tonight. I had a bit of issues trying to get it to stay and not unravel. Hopefully I have beautiful curls in the morning!
My mother was very poor growing up.She was born in the 1930s. This is what they did with the material they cut in sections, calling them rag curls. ❤ I wonder if we used 2 bands and section our head in 2.If it would make a difference for the back and the front
Wow it worked can't believe it your hair looks gorgeous and beautiful and your husband helped out to I'm going to try this myself I have much longer hair thanks for your video
Next you should try to do individual strips for tighter curls! That is how I do it. It takes about 24 strips of old cotton shirt or pillow case(I use pillow case because my hair is long) it also allows me to get the curls all the way to my scalp in the back. It's also much more comfortable for us side sleepers. My hair is naturally pretty wavy so it will hold the tight curls until I wash it again. I do this method on dry hair, though people with less natural wave to their hair could dampen it first.
I've tried that 3 days ago. My hair is just a bit longer than yours. I used a fake silk robe band and just tied it with a soft scrunchie at the end. Also I just let the ends hanging. I've got nice beachy waves and they are still in my hair after 3 days. I prepped my hair with oil and let it air dry to 80% 🥰
You should try the version this girl named Shonagh Scott did and compare results. I think her version is easier for shoulder length hair because she does a 3 “strand” twist and it helps keep the hair tighter. Her version also gives a better all over head wavy curl. I tried both methods and I prefer the results of her method. This 2 “strand” method like the version Milabu did is not easy to keep tight once you get to the bottom of your hair and for me it was difficult to get the elastic around the ends. This version gives more voluminous curls on the ends of your hair, which are good for ponytail curls. I had to use my smoothing serum to get rid of some of the frizz and poofy volume. The results are good for wearing ponytail hairstyles, but the curls aren’t even all over, so you’d have to go back and fix it if you want to wear it down. Tips for shoulder length and shorter hair : if you have a silk or non-cotton type robe, use that belt instead. It’s a lot easier to use with elastics. Also, I fold my belt in half and used an elastic to hold the side with separated strands together. That way you don’t have anything dangling and it’s easier to manage when twisting.
This is basically rag curls. I have done both and it’s the only way I can get my hair to stay curly. There are better ways to tie it off for more comfortable sleeping. My hair is beyond straight and resembles shiny plastic black wigs. I found applying a little mousse while my hair is damp gives it longer lasting curl and a bit less frizz. I brush it after it’s set and then twist the curls into the size curl clump that I want and I’m usually good for 2-3 days or when my hair gets wet. Heat or steam curling lasts maybe an hour even with product.
@milabu Thank you for showing us "Medium" hair length girls that it not only works, but it looks great too. In your video (@ 3:34), you mention that you're "not really understanding how the back of the hair is going to get incorporated?" Your technique and curls look great, and that was what I was looking for. In regards to your question, I had watched another heatless curl video before yours. It's called "HEATLESS CURLS/SHONAGH SCOTT." @shonaghscott uses the robe belt as well, but her technique is different. She includes the back of her hair during the wrapping process around the belt. Again, thank you for your medium length hair video❣️ 👏🏻
Absolutely beautiful curls on you! Loved how they fell out too. I’ve got super thick waist length straight layered hair. Think I’ll try this of a morning instead of overnight too as I’m a side sleeper & would struggle to sleep with the robe belt in my hair. Love your results. Also love Andrey’s blue shirt 👕😊😊 x
I love doing this! I do mine a little different, I go around the crown of my head and meet in the middle back, middle of my head instead of the base of my neck. Then I twist them tight and tie it in a bow in the back. I sleep on the side of my head so this way is the most comfortable for me.
Well darling I have mine rolled as we speak. I actually started rolling it and then looked up the tutorial just to make sure I was doing it correctly and came upon you cuz I follow you with all of your makeup and Beauty tutorials which I greatly appreciate, you do a great job! Thank you and you walked me through it just to make sure I did it correctly and I'm anxious to see how mine turns out in the morning! I have hair down below the middle of my back so it took quite a while to roll and I have quite a lot in the robe beltso we'll see how I get to sleep, here's hoping for the best!!
Ok....I’ve done this twice now trying to do a video on it and I can never get it to look good. I have medium length hair. I think my belt isn’t thick enough. Yours looks great!
Mousy Leigh try folding your belt in half - that way you get a bigger curl pattern ;) you just need to be sure to twist the hair around high enough that you don’t end up with hair sticking off the end ;)
Love it!! Going to try it! I have Irish/Polish hair where the curls fall out quickly. I like the idea of wetting/gelling the hair before. Excited to try!!
Can you please gives an update of this with products on you hair . I know it pass several months. I just curious how it work now for you and if you have any new thoughts about this. Thank you..
Love this method. Has been saving me time and less damage to my hair. My hair is fine, straight and just below my shoulders. Florida humidity will flatten or frizz any style so I spray on a light hair spray in the morning and it holds the bouncy curls/waves all day. Mine turns out like yours. Looks great on you! 🌻
Nice!!! I’ve been growing my hair out for nearly two years now and have been looking for cool things to try! Excited to see how this’ll do with mine! Thanks for the tip! 👍🏼
It’s called “rag curling”my grandma taught me how to do this ..strips of cloth ,..I have super long hair curls last days although you do it different…I use many strips..you suppose to tie the cloth in a knot to the top of your hair..damp hair then wrap around cloth tightly then take the rest of the cloth and wrap it back up the the hair and tie a knot back to the top of the hair..you have to make sure the cloth is double the length of the hair to achieve this… this is a very old method of curling hair and very effective done in the Victorian age
I'm a heatless overnight curles adict...tryied out all possible methods....Four litlle buns on each side of the head is the best way....for thin, really thin hear that I have (legnht is an inch shorter thar yours at this moment) I'll try this...but I think the rope twist gets the job done....You, my hair playing queen did it...and the result was great (or that 3 dutch braids that you did...that was great as well) Love you, and thanks for being an inspiration throughout the years!
I tried it this past weekend, and I did the bun thing too! My hair is about 2in longer than yours. However I was wearing it like that while I was doing house chores. I did take a nap and didn't like it for sleeping either so I knew I would do this overnight. The curls did last 3 days, on day 3 it was nice big waves. Funny enough today I'm trying a new method. Instead of the buns I just criss cross the tails in the back and bring the excess robe material to the top of my head and made a cute bow. I took a nap with it and it felt waaay more comfortable. Now I just have to see how the curls are when I take it off. If they are good I will be doing the overnight this way😉
I just tried this on my daughter for picture day. After it was sitting for an hour, I realized I twisted the wrong way. 🤦♀️here’s hoping it still turns out ok. **UPDATE** they still worked!
Look at your smile.. I got really happy when you were smiling bcz the curls were looking flawless .. You and Andre are the best couple.. The love is always seen on your faces for each other.. M also excited for your baby 😘😘😍
Man I been gone so long that watching this video I’m like why does her face look different...then you mentioned your pillow and I was like 😭 she’s pregnant❤️ I’m late but congratulations I’m so happy for you! And I’m glad you did this hair trick and was honest about it ❤️ I used to do this but with a headband. I’d do a cute style for the day then sleep in it and let it out the next day, it was a two in one for me but I was interested in this one because the belt looks like it adds more volume
My hair is halfway down my back and a mix of waves/curls/straight. I tried this but I didn’t pull just from the front. I alternated pulling from the front and back. Then I use the belt as my third strand and braided the ends. For the excess belt I crossed them at my neck and tied them on the top of my head in a bow. Worked great at giving all over waves that lasted all day!
I’ve tried the method, I’ve got longer hair than you , I haven’t used anything on my hair, I just did it after washing my hair and when it was nearly dry. It lasted until the next wash and I’m very glad I don’t have to use wands again
I also saw the hack on lainy’s insta a couple of months ago.I´ve been doing it ever sinse and it works!!!! I love it , especially since my hair needs to stay away from heat after by a bad bleaching accident ☹️!!!
A tip for you from someone who have mixed hair type of curly wavy and straight If you do this and want to avoid frizz or flyes just add a scarf ( like hijab) after finishing the style (the method) It's preferred to do it during the day And after the hair drys and you open it The curls will stay like this (might falls abit) but you won't get any frizz trust me on that ( the scarf also doesn't need to be tight on the head it's just to tame the hair itself) One last thing (it's about my hair ): I have a very straight hair from roots till my ears (end of them) than till my back it's a mix of curls and waves ,the bangs or hairs especially infront of my ears to my face is pretty straight . I've been putting my hair into like buns or just twist the hair together like u did without the rob belt and than throws a scarf on it and let the hair drys than take everything out It works very well . Also just for the records as I said my hair is already curly x wavy x straight but so I usually do this when I want to define some of the curls/waves in my hair You also won't need any tools later on or anything it will last a pretty good time (till the next wash) But for a whole straight hair just apply a hair setting spray it will keep the curls well (tried it on my sister she has a very straight hair)
Omg your hair type is same as mine😂😂and trust me it looks horrible when its frizzy😂😂 I have been struggling with my hair since a really long time .The length of my hair is upto my hip and omg they are falling a lot freaking a lot. I am also having hairfall problem since a long time and yesterday and day before yesterday literally alot of my hair fell and I was feeling very sad while looking my maybe 200 to 300 hair on the ground and all of them fell directly from the root 😑😬😭
My hair is shorter than yours and some layers I'm growing out....it looks nice ...I have tried socks, cut up rags, and twist curls which was one my grandmother taught me I'm nearly 60 years old...my granny did them to her hair as a kid. None of them looks as good as those you just did. You look so beautiful just glowing. Hope everything goes nice and easy with your delivery. This love your about to experience has no words, you will know what I mean soon enough. Sending Prayers your way.
I tried this and I have long hair that goes way over my shoulder blades. This method made same kind of curls that you have and also the last bit of hair was little off. I just curled them little bit of heat and they lasted half a day. End of the day this most tight curls were still pretty but loose ones were gone. I kinda like this method to have curls without using that much heat and still get beautiful result perhaps to have curly hairstyle 😊
try doing this on slightly damp hair and sleeping in it- I find it helps a lot. My hair is pin straight and doesn' like to hold a curl unless I do them damp and let them dry before taking the fabric or curlers out!
I have curly hair, 3b-ish, and this trick works so great to give me uniform, predictable curls I can work with, no fuss. I always use freshly washed hair, 80% dried, with a bit of smoothing cream and plenty of gel to manage frizz. I make the sections smaller and tighter to mimic my natural curl and they definitely fall throughout the day like yours did. My hair is medium length, this is my GO TO heatless curl. Wish I would have learned about it earlier!
I did a method similar last night expect I grabbed grabbed hair from the back immediately following the front then alternated. It came out so beautiful
For girls with thick hair who don't get flawless results: our hair isn't meant for heatless styles that include water. Since our hair is thick and being compressed with twists and braids, your hair will take FOREVER to dry and when you think that it's time to un-twist your hair, chances are that it'll still be a bit damp and your hair will get poofy and frizzy once it completely dries after undoing your twists/braids. So from someone with thick hair who has tried SEVERAL heatless methods, I have found that damping your hair with gel does wonder! it keeps your curls in place and your hair won't get poofy or frizzy. I use the Suave max hold sculpting gel 8. it's cheap, non-sticky, fast drying and alcohol-free! btw it doesn't leave your hair feeling crunchy or stiff.. depending on how much you use of course. Really hope this helps someone :)
Normal braids work pretty well. Or boxer braids
So true!!
Thank you🙂 I will try it out.
Awesome tip ! I struggle with the frizzy hair if I did it damp . And never knew the trick to using some Hold Gel lucky I just bought some
Ty! I'll prob not be allowed but thx
I think its so adorable her husband helps her and films for her too, they are so wholesome
Ohhhh, that's her hubby?? I just LOVE how he plays the part of the 'sidekick' like on those late-night talk shows, hahaha!!! So cute! 😸
So lucky girl
This is definitely the best review of this method I’ve seen, especially on short hair. Love that you thought about the back of your head while you were doing it, instead of just curling in the front and then complaining about the back like a few people I’ve seen. Also liked that you didn’t go in with heat but actually fluffed them and made it work without fixing it with heat straight away, I haven’t seen anyone do that but it actually looked so good once you fluffed it out like that and didn’t even need heat! And thank you for the end of day update too.
I wasn’t convinced and then you side parted it and WOW! Looks so good!
Ikr! I was like damn 🤑
She pulled it off better than anyone I’ve seen!
I agree!
I obviously agree im definetly trying this
I think it looked good even before the side part!!
Just a tip - to get the hair more curly at the back, you add sections from the back AND The front as you are twisting around the rope, so the back pieces get incorporated into it xx
I thought that is what she did!!!!
She did that ?
@@MsWarriordiva not at 1st she didn't.
Hello, everyone!!!
I would first like to comment that I was an Irish dancer growing up. So, this is a lot more comfortable, than sleeping in the plastic curlers that I did. And, just so you know, I was not part of the wig phase. We used to curl our hair naturally. I blame Michael Flatley for this...
When I first found out that this method existed, just about three months ago, I was so ecstatic. The beautiful thing, about my hair, is that it takes curls amazingly well. I just don't like using a curler. My hair isn't damaged and I want to keep it that way.
So, I have shoulder length hair right now and it is pretty fine, and I would suggest, using a bandana. So you don't have to buy a robe to get the rope with it. Only use the bathrobe if you have seriously long hair. And, since I have done this about six times now, at the end of the bandana, there isn't much left. So place the little bit of bandana over your hair, when you twist it, and then put it in a hair tie or scrunchie. I prefer just a hair tie. I don't like the scrunchy feeling.
As for product, I sometimes, spray some hairspray, after both buns are made. But, you absolutely have to, damp your hair, to keep it curly all day.
I also I have a subscription to Ipsy and I recently got a leave-in conditioner. What I do is spray a small amount in my hand, first, and then scrunch up my hair, and it instantly, becomes frizz-free. So that is something that worked for me.
I hope this is helpful and I am so glad, Milabu, you did this!!! You looked beautiful and it just takes a couple of times to figure it out. And, if you do want to do this in the morning, keep it in for at least 5 to 8 hours. Even two hours, my hair is completely curled.
Thanks for this information. Need to try it with a bandana !😇
I tried this last night. I was REALLY REALLY happy with the results. I have a side part, and it was difficult for me to wrap my hair around the robe chord on my deep side, but this was overall the best method for heatless curls overnight. For years i've used pigtail braids, french braids and dutch braids. but my hair was always wavy and messy. This hairstyle works the best on both short and long hair. I've seen a lot of reviews on this method and a lot of girls were very impressed/satisfied with their results. I would definitely recommend using this technique!
Would you do a tutorial, please????!!!
@@user-fv7lr3ue3v im really self conscious on how i look on camera, i would if i was more confident :(
If you do it parted in the middle, then flip it to the side when you take it out, it will give you more lift at your root :)
@@candaceion9622 i did it on the side, spliting it in the middle got uncomfortable and when i resplit my hair, some of the hair went in the opposite direction
I love how you would always do a quick preview/ update at the end of the day to show us how they fell out. Thanks this way we have a better idea ! 😍😍😍🎀
I tried this method. My hair is about the same length as yours. I folded the robe belt is half. It made bigger curls and wasn’t as awkward to sleep in. You look stunning with this style❤️❤️
I've been doing this for a while. My hair is medium length, straight and fine. My hair doesn't usually hold a curl for more than an hour, but this wave will stay in my hair for two days. I double the belt for bigger curls/waves and wrap my damp hair around and secure overnight (not the most comfortable). In the morning I get an amazing beachy wave and I love it. 🌊
Thats a good idea to double the belt. I will try this, thank u!
Let's just face it; you have a magical touch when it comes to hair. I have tried this before and the results were so so for me. I am going to get a bonnet hair dryer so I don't have to sleep with these uncomfortable situations. I remember being so happy when blowdryers became prevalent because I hated the bonnets but they have their place.
The initial reveal reminded me of Kitty from That 70’s show
Yesssss! Even when they fell out they looked so good
WritingElephant oh yeah she can pull off anything really!
70s hairstyles are underrated
Thank you for showing us how it looks from the back! So many TH-camrs never consider that
Seriously this is just amazing. I ran into the shower to wet my hair and try this seconds after I watched this on Facebook. And I have never had so many compliments on my hair ever! My hair is long, vawy/curly and dry and kind of thin and this made it so voluminous and big. You look amazing and thanks for sharing!
Also I added a bit of curl gel after to help with the frizz.
I usually tie up the robe ends around my head like I’m doing braid crown and it’s pretty comfortable to sleep in!
Smart !!! 😎
I'm doing this as we speak for the first time.
I have done this method over 10 times now and I have loved the results each time!
This is a new twist on what those of us born in the 50’s would do called rag curls. Yes this started during the depression when money was tight. Yes even the finest straightest hair like mine would curl like Shirley temple and last all day. This is how my grandma curled my hair for picture day
Rags curls have actually been around far longer than the great depression... it was a very popular curling method in the Victorian era and was very likely used by people prior to that.
Rag curls have been traced as far back as the Greek. This is a very well documented method :)
My mom use to do my sister and my hair in rag curls all the time
Can we use any cloth or special type of fabric is needed for this?
Fay Coleman thanks for sharing
I can't wait to try this! Please could you do an 'updated' testing of this method with products that work for you to get the frizz down and help the curls last all day? TY! 💖
I'm sitting here realizing I've been watching your videos for almost 4 years now. I donated my hair in 2016 and you totally gave me more confidence in doing being able to go through with it. You had almost white hair then haha but I loved watching your tutorials with a bunch of styles in one video. Love you girl!
i fully suggest this. if you dont own a dressing gown a tie works. i tried with a tie from my school and it worked wonders.
Finally someone with hair my length so I can see how this works on shorter hair. Trying this for sure - your hair looks great and I’m happy you showed the back.
I really liked the way it relaxed by the end of the day as opposed to when you first took it down from the belt. Wow!! Really cool!!
Definitely trying this tonight! I swear by just doing 2 rope braids before bed, and that gives me a nice beachy wave. This is beautiful, and not much different than what I already do. Thank you!
I swear I could wait 72 hours and my not thick hair would still not be dry in braids of any kind… no matter how small they are or even if my hair is like 90% dry.. it just like traps the moisture in 😫
@@roxette24 Mine does as well.. I have to dry my hair completely, but it still works! I recommend giving it a go!
I like the heatless curl wrapping. I will try this.
This is the only way I’ve done my hair for the past month!! It’s amazing, I’m obsessed, and I’m sticking to it! I have long naturally wavy/frizzy hair and this looks amazing on it! I wash my hair about 2x a week and while it’s still pretty wet (more than damp), I add it’s a 10 serum to my ends and Paul Mitchell thicken up styling liquid to my roots. I do the robe tie twist method a little differently. For my very back sections on both side, I twist the alternating direction at the end. And after tying the ends, I leave the two twists falling straight down. I tried the side bun thingy to keep it out of the way at night and it made my curls deformed. So I sleep with them hanging down like pigtails and find it much more comfortable than tying them up also - I’m a side sleeper as well. In the morning, I take it all out, brush through them with my fingers or brush, apply hairspray as needed, and go on about my day! These curls do settle down to more waves after 3 or so days, but I still love the look on my long hair. And that’s it. I use no heat at all and wash my hair only 2x a week now and it’s grown so much since starting!!
@CaitlynKothe it's almost 2 years since you posted this comment so I don't know if you'll see my reply or answer it but I would love to hear how you do the very back section. I can't envision what you mean --- "For my very back sections on both side, I twist the alternating diredction at the end." Do you mean if you've been twisting all the hair away from your face you start twisting it towards your face? Doesn't mean that some of the hair falls off the belt because you twist your hair foward you are basically undoing what you've been twisting? Thank you for your explanation.
I did it last night and it worked like a dream! Very happy with my curls! Thank you again! Sending you love and gratitude! ❤️
I love the bathrobe belt method for heartless curls. Works better on my hair (wavy, fine) & results last for days.
I’m glad to see someone doing this with shorter hair. I watched the first tutorial with someone with waist length hair and failed miserably. So I will definitely give this a try tonight. Thank you so much. You look very, very pretty. It’s very feminine. I’ve seen a few other TH-cam videos and they show you how to tie it up at night so that it doesn’t bother you when you sleep.
Thank you for the honest HONEST video!! 🙏 I been looking Thru videos and I dont feel like they are being "real". So thanks again.
You are so genuine, I loved this tutorial. So hard to find someone with short hair doing this. Thanks!
Side sleeper? Try this modification that works for me.
Once I finish wrapping a side, I don’t just elastic the hair to the belt. Instead, I take a tiny section of the belt right where I’ve ended wrapping that side and fold it up over the very end of the wrapped hair, trapping the tail end of hair inside the little folded up belt section. Then I put an elastic around just that flip fold (so I don’t have to pull the entire length of the robe belt through the elastic.) Don’t do the “bun” thing with the long rope end. Instead, I just tie the two robe belt ends in a very loose knot behind my neck and sleep quite comfortably on my side. Love the results!
Your hair looks very natural and not stiff and fake.
That side part was a game changer! The end result is absolutely BEAUTIFUL
It's been ten months after my pixie haircut, thanks to the pandemic. I can color my hair myself (though I'd much rather not), but I can't cut it, so your channel is a godsend. Thanks for all the hairstyle and product videos so I can do something with my hair in this awful, in-between stage.
I tried this and loved the results. I have long hair and would like the curls to last longer, now I do need a cut so when that is allowed it might make the difference.
Tips for hair types (straight, wavy, and loose curls)
Straight thin hair
1 common robe fabric works great, keeping the hair from slipping, and unlike other hair types, it doesn't cause much frizz
2 Wet your hair with just water until it's either wet enough it looks darker, or if you can't see it, until it's wet enough, you can wring it out and get DROPLETS of water
3 In any method, keep your hair tight. Your hair is the most likely to lose volume and texture quickly, so tight curls are easy to loosen, but not going tight enough means you'll have barely, if not any, any effect.
4 Hairspray with a decent or strong holding hairspray, this is after you brush it out to loosen it. You don't have to brush it out, but the hairspray is a must if you want it to last
Straight, thick hair
1 Common fluffly robes works great for this method for your hair type as well since thickness won't affect you here.
2. Water will be helpful here, but instead of soaking your hair which will lead to parts of the hair still being damp and it drying frizzy, I suggest using a lightweight hair cream with a bit of water if it is water activated and putting that in your hair. When your hair either feels soft (like when conditioning) or sticky, depending on if you use cream or gel, that is when you're ready
3 I would still recommend keeping the curls tight in all methods due to the lack of texture in your hair
4. If you used a strong gel, you can get away with using a less strong hairspray, but still make sure to finger brush or fully brush and style before using the hairspray
Wavy hair
1. If your hair has soft waves, this robe fabric will work fine, especially if you have thin hair. If you have tighter waves, it will depend on a large amount of factors. Because of this, when I don't have days and trails to test someone's hair, I recommend satin ribbon or a satin robe belt. Or even a different method altogether (the sock method works great, and there's a crown method with a robe that won't frizz your hair as bad as the twists).
2. If you've already done a hair wash day and have styling products in your hair, you can (with thick and tight wave hair) get away with having dry hair and no extra product. If you have thin or loose waves, I'd recommend adding in your favorite hold product, or if you don't use one regularly, a lightweight cream or mouse. Thin hair with water activated products can just add water, though, since the products should reactivate and you can twist without the fear of your hair not drying.
3. If you want those bouncy loose curls, go slightly tighter than you need to for it to hold its place, but you don't need to go extremely tight as it will be harder to loosen them. If you want tight ringlet curls, go tighter and use a wide tooth comb to loosen them after. It will loosen the tighter ones a bit but won't do it enough to get that bounce, which is why you can change depending on the desired look.
4. I would use a very light hairspray or even just use a bit of the previous product and coat the curls individually. You still need a hold. But not as strong as a heavy hairspray
Loose Curly hair
1. Don't use those soft robes. Use satin ribbons or robe belts, and honestly, don't use this method. If you really want to, you can, but this method works better for those in the loose hair category. The crown, sock (use the outside of the sock, and a soft fabric), or even a twist method works fine.
2. If you have styling products in your hair already, you can go ahead and start. You can add more products, but as long as your products are keeping your natural hair in place, they should do the same for you now.
3. Unless you're testing to see if this will help your 6 day old hair revive, I would go as loose as you can with these. If you go tight, they'll clump and bunch together and be like your natural hair on a bad hair day. So just get your hair straight and loose as you can get it and then put it up.
4. If your products are strong enough, you should be golden by the end outside of some shaking to loosen the curls. If there's any you need to fix, it's the same as natural hair, a bit of product, and fixing up the ends. Oil or other frizz fixes if anything goes really wrong, and you should be golden
Sorry this was long. Any questions and I'll answer as best I can. I realized I was having trouble finding new ways to do my hair that I didn't need to have this knowledge and understanding of my hair already to do and that others with different hair types than the people their watching might want these tips.
Thanks. Different hair. Different items to use. Great instructor.❤🎉😊. Great explanation 😊.
I’m always in the market for different ways to save my hair from heat- I’ll definitely have to try this! The curls came out super cute! With a little hair oil and a touch of hairspray you might be able to tame some of the frizz. Thanks for trying this out for us short-haired ladies :)
omg it works.I tried it and i am obssesed.I do this every time when i curl my hair.❤😍😘
I did this last night and it worked really well! I usually have a hard time with heatless curls, but this was awesome.
I have medium length, thick hair for reference!
this is what is called rag curls and we used a hair net over our heads when we were done. rag curls can be done individual or like you just did. the hair net was a triangle netting that was tied over the head (like a scarf), I always tied mine in the back so there were no bumps to sleep on. then we graduated to pin curls and I use to dry curl my hair at night, wrap it in the net and the curls would last from washing to washing. then we went to rollers (beer cans). those were awful to sleep on.
I did rag curls as a kid and it wasn’t this. We cut up old pillow cases and use it like rollers
@@Jessicamae1988 both are rag curls. it can be done like you said or like this with a very long strip. my mom's mother did the long strip kind on them most of the time. she was born in 1912 and it was a thing her mother did on her as well :)
She actually does both a front and back section simultaneously, like a french braid! You're only doing the front!
True. I watched the other video before I watched this one, and I was wondering how this would turn out.
Exactly...do a front section...then a back section...like a French braided using the belt as the middle strand of hair...why not just French or Dutch braid your hair...same result?
@@eileenmaschal9505 1) Not the same at all, maybe on different hair results are similar but mine look nothing alike 2) dries better
@@eileenmaschal9505 It's definitely more curly with this method because the rope is much thicker than a hair strand is ( I have tried both methods). I hope this is helpful! I know I'm 8 months late so sorry if you already worked this out haha
?
I haven't done this style in a while and came to your video for a refresher! my hair length is to my hips. I've tried this method multiple times but my best results were when I used the "Beach Babe Soft Waves Sea Salt Spray" to mist my hair before I start wrapping it, and then really spray it all over once both sides are wrapped and I'm headed to bed! I love doing curls this way, no heat damage and takes me a lot less time💙
My mom actually did this when i was a kid. She would get an old bedsheet and cut it in pieces. We call it " papillotten". U can use it in many ways. Like u did around the head, or just like little bits and pieces at a time.
AnOukiieJh Queen My grandmother also called it "papelotes" in Portuguese and it was done in little pieces one for each lock of hair.
My mum done that too when I was a wee girl. She called it “Rags” 😊😊
me too we called it rags
Radley Rayne ditto
Does it hurt your neck to sleep on?
Trying this for the first time tonight. I had a bit of issues trying to get it to stay and not unravel. Hopefully I have beautiful curls in the morning!
Please share your results?
Just did this on my above the shoulder hair but with tube socks lol wow you look even more beautiful with curls loved it 🙌🏻👏🏻
My mother was very poor growing up.She was born in the 1930s. This is what they did with the material they cut in sections, calling them rag curls. ❤
I wonder if we used 2 bands and section our head in 2.If it would make a difference for the back and the front
Rag curls were the inly styling method I tolerated as a child. Got them every Saturday evening.
JB W me too!
Mom pin curled my hair every Saturday night .
I had curlers in a high ponytail every Sat night. ☺️
Wow it worked can't believe it your hair looks gorgeous and beautiful and your husband helped out to I'm going to try this myself I have much longer hair thanks for your video
Next you should try to do individual strips for tighter curls! That is how I do it. It takes about 24 strips of old cotton shirt or pillow case(I use pillow case because my hair is long) it also allows me to get the curls all the way to my scalp in the back. It's also much more comfortable for us side sleepers. My hair is naturally pretty wavy so it will hold the tight curls until I wash it again. I do this method on dry hair, though people with less natural wave to their hair could dampen it first.
It makes your hair look really full, very attractive! Keep it up!
I've tried that 3 days ago. My hair is just a bit longer than yours. I used a fake silk robe band and just tied it with a soft scrunchie at the end. Also I just let the ends hanging. I've got nice beachy waves and they are still in my hair after 3 days. I prepped my hair with oil and let it air dry to 80% 🥰
You look so much prettier towards the end of your Video with a head of curls!!😊. I will try this method asap thankyou!
You should try the version this girl named Shonagh Scott did and compare results. I think her version is easier for shoulder length hair because she does a 3 “strand” twist and it helps keep the hair tighter. Her version also gives a better all over head wavy curl. I tried both methods and I prefer the results of her method.
This 2 “strand” method like the version Milabu did is not easy to keep tight once you get to the bottom of your hair and for me it was difficult to get the elastic around the ends. This version gives more voluminous curls on the ends of your hair, which are good for ponytail curls. I had to use my smoothing serum to get rid of some of the frizz and poofy volume. The results are good for wearing ponytail hairstyles, but the curls aren’t even all over, so you’d have to go back and fix it if you want to wear it down.
Tips for shoulder length and shorter hair : if you have a silk or non-cotton type robe, use that belt instead. It’s a lot easier to use with elastics. Also, I fold my belt in half and used an elastic to hold the side with separated strands together. That way you don’t have anything dangling and it’s easier to manage when twisting.
I tried this method last night. I have to say that I prefer the results of the three stand method much more. Just as simple too
This is basically rag curls. I have done both and it’s the only way I can get my hair to stay curly. There are better ways to tie it off for more comfortable sleeping.
My hair is beyond straight and resembles shiny plastic black wigs. I found applying a little mousse while my hair is damp gives it longer lasting curl and a bit less frizz. I brush it after it’s set and then twist the curls into the size curl clump that I want and I’m usually good for 2-3 days or when my hair gets wet. Heat or steam curling lasts maybe an hour even with product.
@milabu Thank you for showing us "Medium" hair length girls that it not only works, but it looks great too. In your video (@ 3:34), you mention that you're "not really understanding how the back of the hair is going to get incorporated?" Your technique and curls look great, and that was what I was looking for. In regards to your question, I had watched another heatless curl video before yours. It's called "HEATLESS CURLS/SHONAGH SCOTT." @shonaghscott uses the robe belt as well, but her technique is different. She includes the back of her hair during the wrapping process around the belt. Again, thank you for your medium length hair video❣️ 👏🏻
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👋👋👋
Absolutely beautiful curls on you! Loved how they fell out too. I’ve got super thick waist length straight layered hair. Think I’ll try this of a morning instead of overnight too as I’m a side sleeper & would struggle to sleep with the robe belt in my hair. Love your results. Also love Andrey’s blue shirt 👕😊😊 x
I love doing this! I do mine a little different, I go around the crown of my head and meet in the middle back, middle of my head instead of the base of my neck. Then I twist them tight and tie it in a bow in the back. I sleep on the side of my head so this way is the most comfortable for me.
Well darling I have mine rolled as we speak. I actually started rolling it and then looked up the tutorial just to make sure I was doing it correctly and came upon you cuz I follow you with all of your makeup and Beauty tutorials which I greatly appreciate, you do a great job! Thank you and you walked me through it just to make sure I did it correctly and I'm anxious to see how mine turns out in the morning! I have hair down below the middle of my back so it took quite a while to roll and I have quite a lot in the robe beltso we'll see how I get to sleep, here's hoping for the best!!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there😄😎😎
I LOVE how this turned out! Looks gorgeous!!! Im definitely going to try this method!! Thanks for sharing this with us!!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👋👋😄
The waves at the end are exactly what im hoping for 🥰
Going try this. Now I know it works on short hair! Looks great!
Geniuos and it looks beautiful!
I’ve seen people fold the belt in half with this method for looser waves! It may also be interesting to try French braiding with the belt in.
I did mine with half a microfiber towel rolled up! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ok....I’ve done this twice now trying to do a video on it and I can never get it to look good. I have medium length hair. I think my belt isn’t thick enough. Yours looks great!
Mousy Leigh try folding your belt in half - that way you get a bigger curl pattern ;) you just need to be sure to twist the hair around high enough that you don’t end up with hair sticking off the end ;)
Sabina Hertzum thanks for the tips
Very 80s just how my hair was back in the day, it's funny how everything comes, around again.... Love it. ❤️
Love it!! Going to try it! I have Irish/Polish hair where the curls fall out quickly. I like the idea of wetting/gelling the hair before. Excited to try!!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👋👋👋
Can you please gives an update of this with products on you hair . I know it pass several months. I just curious how it work now for you and if you have any new thoughts about this. Thank you..
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👋👋👋
I’ve been doing this for a few weeks, works really well!
Love this method. Has been saving me time and less damage to my hair. My hair is fine, straight and just below my shoulders. Florida humidity will flatten or frizz any style so I spray on a light hair spray in the morning and it holds the bouncy curls/waves all day. Mine turns out like yours. Looks great on you! 🌻
Nice!!! I’ve been growing my hair out for nearly two years now and have been looking for cool things to try! Excited to see how this’ll do with mine! Thanks for the tip! 👍🏼
It’s called “rag curling”my grandma taught me how to do this ..strips of cloth ,..I have super long hair curls last days although you do it different…I use many strips..you suppose to tie the cloth in a knot to the top of your hair..damp hair then wrap around cloth tightly then take the rest of the cloth and wrap it back up the the hair and tie a knot back to the top of the hair..you have to make sure the cloth is double the length of the hair to achieve this… this is a very old method of curling hair and very effective done in the Victorian age
AH! Thank you so much, momma! They turned out so good 😍🔥❤️
I'm a heatless overnight curles adict...tryied out all possible methods....Four litlle buns on each side of the head is the best way....for thin, really thin hear that I have (legnht is an inch shorter thar yours at this moment) I'll try this...but I think the rope twist gets the job done....You, my hair playing queen did it...and the result was great (or that 3 dutch braids that you did...that was great as well) Love you, and thanks for being an inspiration throughout the years!
They look like natural curls! Sort of like mine when I leave it to dry on its own overnight (mine is more frizzy than this, but near enough haha)
The curls look so beautiful and natural.
I tried it this past weekend, and I did the bun thing too! My hair is about 2in longer than yours. However I was wearing it like that while I was doing house chores. I did take a nap and didn't like it for sleeping either so I knew I would do this overnight. The curls did last 3 days, on day 3 it was nice big waves. Funny enough today I'm trying a new method. Instead of the buns I just criss cross the tails in the back and bring the excess robe material to the top of my head and made a cute bow. I took a nap with it and it felt waaay more comfortable. Now I just have to see how the curls are when I take it off. If they are good I will be doing the overnight this way😉
Love it! Looks like you were born with curly hair, so natural!
I just tried this on my daughter for picture day. After it was sitting for an hour, I realized I twisted the wrong way. 🤦♀️here’s hoping it still turns out ok.
**UPDATE** they still worked!
Look at your smile.. I got really happy when you were smiling bcz the curls were looking flawless .. You and Andre are the best couple.. The love is always seen on your faces for each other.. M also excited for your baby 😘😘😍
Man I been gone so long that watching this video I’m like why does her face look different...then you mentioned your pillow and I was like 😭 she’s pregnant❤️ I’m late but congratulations I’m so happy for you! And I’m glad you did this hair trick and was honest about it ❤️ I used to do this but with a headband. I’d do a cute style for the day then sleep in it and let it out the next day, it was a two in one for me but I was interested in this one because the belt looks like it adds more volume
My hair is halfway down my back and a mix of waves/curls/straight. I tried this but I didn’t pull just from the front. I alternated pulling from the front and back. Then I use the belt as my third strand and braided the ends. For the excess belt I crossed them at my neck and tied them on the top of my head in a bow. Worked great at giving all over waves that lasted all day!
I’ve tried the method, I’ve got longer hair than you , I haven’t used anything on my hair, I just did it after washing my hair and when it was nearly dry. It lasted until the next wash and I’m very glad I don’t have to use wands again
I also saw the hack on lainy’s insta a couple of months ago.I´ve been doing it ever sinse and it works!!!! I love it , especially since my hair needs to stay away from heat after by a bad bleaching accident ☹️!!!
A tip for you from someone who have mixed hair type of curly wavy and straight
If you do this and want to avoid frizz or flyes just add a scarf ( like hijab) after finishing the style (the method)
It's preferred to do it during the day
And after the hair drys and you open it
The curls will stay like this (might falls abit) but you won't get any frizz trust me on that ( the scarf also doesn't need to be tight on the head it's just to tame the hair itself)
One last thing (it's about my hair ): I have a very straight hair from roots till my ears (end of them) than till my back it's a mix of curls and waves ,the bangs or hairs especially infront of my ears to my face is pretty straight . I've been putting my hair into like buns or just twist the hair together like u did without the rob belt and than throws a scarf on it and let the hair drys than take everything out
It works very well .
Also just for the records as I said my hair is already curly x wavy x straight but so I usually do this when I want to define some of the curls/waves in my hair
You also won't need any tools later on or anything it will last a pretty good time (till the next wash)
But for a whole straight hair just apply a hair setting spray it will keep the curls well (tried it on my sister she has a very straight hair)
You are my hair twin!!
Omg your hair type is same as mine😂😂and trust me it looks horrible when its frizzy😂😂 I have been struggling with my hair since a really long time .The length of my hair is upto my hip and omg they are falling a lot freaking a lot. I am also having hairfall problem since a long time and yesterday and day before yesterday literally alot of my hair fell and I was feeling very sad while looking my maybe 200 to 300 hair on the ground and all of them fell directly from the root 😑😬😭
Your hair is absolutely GORGEOUS!!!
Looks stunning, I'm an 80s lady so I wore my hair a lot like that, but you put a modern version 😁😁👍🏻
Me too girl. A little frizz looks natural.i have natural wavy hair but want ti try this to get bigger curls.
💖💖So proud of the young man that assisted you. ..A REAL MAN. 👍👍
Beautiful, you look stunning before and after! Woohoo, can’t wait to try this on my pin-straight hair.
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there👋😄
Surprised how good this looks!!
Iv done this for years, using a stretch head band. I always get compliments x
My hair is shorter than yours and some layers I'm growing out....it looks nice ...I have tried socks, cut up rags, and twist curls which was one my grandmother taught me I'm nearly 60 years old...my granny did them to her hair as a kid. None of them looks as good as those you just did. You look so beautiful just glowing. Hope everything goes nice and easy with your delivery. This love your about to experience has no words, you will know what I mean soon enough. Sending Prayers your way.
Your hair turned out gorgeous!
Best curls on you I've seen
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there😎👋👋
I tried this and I have long hair that goes way over my shoulder blades. This method made same kind of curls that you have and also the last bit of hair was little off. I just curled them little bit of heat and they lasted half a day. End of the day this most tight curls were still pretty but loose ones were gone. I kinda like this method to have curls without using that much heat and still get beautiful result perhaps to have curly hairstyle 😊
try doing this on slightly damp hair and sleeping in it- I find it helps a lot. My hair is pin straight and doesn' like to hold a curl unless I do them damp and let them dry before taking the fabric or curlers out!
Still looks so pretty without makeup!!!
I love how easy you make it look😉 your channel inspires me do better and grow more. Thank you!
She's so adorable! And she explains this technique so well! Im gonna try it for sure !Thank you so much! God bless you!
I have curly hair, 3b-ish, and this trick works so great to give me uniform, predictable curls I can work with, no fuss. I always use freshly washed hair, 80% dried, with a bit of smoothing cream and plenty of gel to manage frizz. I make the sections smaller and tighter to mimic my natural curl and they definitely fall throughout the day like yours did. My hair is medium length, this is my GO TO heatless curl. Wish I would have learned about it earlier!
I did a method similar last night expect I grabbed grabbed hair from the back immediately following the front then alternated. It came out so beautiful
