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.
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.
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 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!
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 ! 😍😍😍🎀
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 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 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! 💖
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.
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. 🌊
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 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❤️❤️
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.
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!
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!
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.
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
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.
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 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.
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 :)
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.
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 ;)
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'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% 🥰
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’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 :)
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.
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 😑😬😭
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💙
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!
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 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.
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😉
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!!
You should check out Shonagh Scott here on TH-cam - she did this a few days ago and made a slight variation on it that worked a treat!! She did a ‘double twist’ on the belt - split the hair along the best and the front was twisted as you show, then the back bit was twisted over/under just like the front, so that she was working with two separate strands of hair... I did it on my own hair that’s as long as yours and it looked amazing... gave so much body and bounce and I didn’t get that dip in the back ;)
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!
@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❣️ 👏🏻
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! 👍🏼
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!!
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!
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
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 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’ve been using that technique for few years now and I’ve never put the ends in bun, I just let them down. It’s more comfortable to sleep like that. I have long hair, it’s naturally wavy and my curls stay 2-3 days :))
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
“I’m a side sleeper... with my pregnancy pillow” literally my thoughts!!! I was going to try this, but I’m 8 months pregnant and said there’s no way I’d be comfy sleeping with a belt in my hair. It’s already hard enough to get comfy these days 😂
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!
Hey, that bottle would be great to put a great leave on conditioner. Test around. If any feel dey or over filmy, suggestions are to delute 50/50 ... or .. 75/25 .... infusium use to be great deluted 10/90 during a perm in the bottle. Helping equalize the curls. Sometimes using it in sets or ?..... especially anything air dried may initially feel crispy but once you comb through it, that stiffness disappears to leave soft curls. However if you ever feel a heavy filmy feeling, just add water. You can do that to any leave on conditioner. Everyone's hair is different, mine is very fine, and I felt it was just wavy vs curly. So while in cosmetology school I learned to care for permed hair on myself. After I allowed that perm to eventually grow out, I realized I naturally had curly hair. My mom taught nothing about hair care. She had short thick wavy hair that used snap on rollers. Rarely took time on me let alone talk. That was the 70s, a dif time but school helped. Perms gave me a stronger curl though but using infusium helps 10% vs 90 water. Also, if you have are into natural stuff, try Shae Moisture BABY... vs regular.... they don't use fillers and perfumes that react to skin. Delute with water if any products feel to thick or over used. Especially if you have kids, because they tend to dump handfuls. Anyhow with leave on, you can use leave on then any setting products afterwards, so the conditioner will help care for the medulla and calm the cuticle, preventing color from fading. Then set as normal. If you use the shae MOISTURE BABY, its a way cheaper CREPE ERASE used regularly. WAY CHEAPER Sometimes when I put lotion on after shower or bathing, I'd run my fingers through the longer tips of my hair then to the roots once my fingers feel like the lotion film has been removed mostly. That will be best on very dry ends and remember, its all natural. Everything in the bottle is used in quality conditioners without perfumes. Set as normal..... or ?
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 😘😘😍
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!
Very beautiful!😍 The curls will last longer and you'll have virtually no frizz if you use the right styling cream before wrapping the hair. I really like the anti-frizz line from Living Proof. Also, adding heat with a blow dryer during the setting process will make the curls last longer. I know that defeats the purpose of this being a heatless style, but if you really want the curls to last 1-2 days then you need some heat and the right styling products. Don't forget the heat protectant if you do use heat.
I've tried this a couple of times. I have "almost shoulderblades hiding" length in my hair, and they are very thick. I get a little too tight curls with this method, I like a bit softer but still volymous vawes. I saw one video where the girl twisted sections of both sides of the tie, and I tried to do it home but didn't get it right. My hair got very wrincly, frizxy and messy. I have also tried this same method without the belt and just braded the rest of the ends and it was more comfortable to sleep in. (I'm also very light sleeper and wake alot during the night). Congratulations on your pregnancy, I hope you have a girl so you can some day teach these things to her also 💖. Blessings!!
My niece puts a headband on, kinda like a halo, and takes pieces and folds them back over the headband...works great, and she has very thick hair, check it out, a little easier and works wonders!
FINALLY SOMEONE SHOWED THE BACK OF THEIR HEAD!! My hair has been short for like 4 months and I haven’t styled it at all. My hair was really curly when it was long but now it isn’t and it gets greasy REALLY fast. This method worked when I had long hair but I doubt it will work now. I am going to try the twist method.
Ive found for myself, the best overnight curls/waves i get is when i do two dutch braids, but i cant just do it overnight. I have to wash my hair in the morning, put in some curl cream... Do my braids. Day 1 hair IS braids. Then i wear the braids to bed, and by morning they are USUALLY dry. 🙄🤦🏼♀️ I have thick thick hair tho. 🤷🏼♀️ But those curls are my most complimented and look so so good, for DAYS. Like, i usually get 3 good days of curls, and can get a day of a curl ponytail, and then if im lazy and dont wanna wash it, i can get a voluminous bun. So iend up with 5 days of good hair, 6th being meh in a bun if im lazy. Its my new favorite thing. I have a beach waver tool i use to fix the very ends(cuz they look weird from the braids) but it takes 2 minutes. And then one day 2 and 3 of the curl/waves, i sometimes use the beachwaver for VERY small amount of touch ups. Only if im going somewhere and want it to look perfect. It works so well for me. I will likely be doing this same routine with every hair wash all summer.it looks just SO good.
My hair is short and not very thick and I do this method too. First day is the braids sometimes I wear them for 2days even. On the third and fourth day I wear my hair out and curly, then for the fifth and sixth day I wear my hair in a low bun or ponytail, seventh day is Sunday I don't got anywhere and I take a shower and do the braids again. I really encourage people to try this one if the robe belt method doesn't work for their short hair.
People that know you, must think you spent hours on your hair at the salon for this look. Your hair looks absolutely marvelous with this large wave curl in it.
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!!
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 !😇
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 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!
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 ! 😍😍😍🎀
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.
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 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! 💖
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
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.
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!
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 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 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!
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!
Thank you for showing us how it looks from the back! So many TH-camrs never consider that
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.
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'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 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!!
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!
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.
Your hair looks very natural and not stiff and fake.
omg it works.I tried it and i am obssesed.I do this every time when i curl my hair.❤😍😘
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
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?
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 love the bathrobe belt method for heartless curls. Works better on my hair (wavy, fine) & results last for days.
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.
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 :)
Thank you for the honest HONEST video!! 🙏 I been looking Thru videos and I dont feel like they are being "real". So thanks again.
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.
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
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
?
That side part was a game changer! The end result is absolutely BEAUTIFUL
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% 🥰
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’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 :)
Just did this on my above the shoulder hair but with tube socks lol wow you look even more beautiful with curls loved it 🙌🏻👏🏻
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
AH! Thank you so much, momma! They turned out so good 😍🔥❤️
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. ☺️
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 😑😬😭
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💙
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.
You are so genuine, I loved this tutorial. So hard to find someone with short hair doing this. Thanks!
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!
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.
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)
I did mine with half a microfiber towel rolled up! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
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.
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👋👋😄
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😉
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😄😎😎
You should check out Shonagh Scott here on TH-cam - she did this a few days ago and made a slight variation on it that worked a treat!!
She did a ‘double twist’ on the belt - split the hair along the best and the front was twisted as you show, then the back bit was twisted over/under just like the front, so that she was working with two separate strands of hair... I did it on my own hair that’s as long as yours and it looked amazing... gave so much body and bounce and I didn’t get that dip in the back ;)
I was going comment with this. Her results where incredible with that method also.
and she tied the robe ends on top of her head, which looked more easy to sleep in it
Going try this. Now I know it works on short hair! Looks great!
Been doing this for over 50 years. So much better for healthy hair!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there😄😄😄
I like the heatless curl wrapping. I will try this.
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!
@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👋👋👋
I’ve been doing this for a few weeks, works really well!
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! 👍🏼
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👋👋👋
It makes your hair look really full, very attractive! Keep it up!
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!
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
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 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’ve been using that technique for few years now and I’ve never put the ends in bun, I just let them down. It’s more comfortable to sleep like that. I have long hair, it’s naturally wavy and my curls stay 2-3 days :))
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
“I’m a side sleeper... with my pregnancy pillow” literally my thoughts!!! I was going to try this, but I’m 8 months pregnant and said there’s no way I’d be comfy sleeping with a belt in my hair. It’s already hard enough to get comfy these days 😂
Try wrapping it at the top of ur head like a crown
💖💖So proud of the young man that assisted you. ..A REAL MAN. 👍👍
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.
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?
Hey, that bottle would be great to put a great leave on conditioner. Test around. If any feel dey or over filmy, suggestions are to delute 50/50 ... or .. 75/25 .... infusium use to be great deluted 10/90 during a perm in the bottle. Helping equalize the curls. Sometimes using it in sets or ?..... especially anything air dried may initially feel crispy but once you comb through it, that stiffness disappears to leave soft curls. However if you ever feel a heavy filmy feeling, just add water. You can do that to any leave on conditioner. Everyone's hair is different, mine is very fine, and I felt it was just wavy vs curly. So while in cosmetology school I learned to care for permed hair on myself. After I allowed that perm to eventually grow out, I realized I naturally had curly hair. My mom taught nothing about hair care. She had short thick wavy hair that used snap on rollers. Rarely took time on me let alone talk. That was the 70s, a dif time but school helped. Perms gave me a stronger curl though but using infusium helps 10% vs 90 water.
Also, if you have are into natural stuff, try Shae Moisture BABY... vs regular.... they don't use fillers and perfumes that react to skin. Delute with water if any products feel to thick or over used. Especially if you have kids, because they tend to dump handfuls.
Anyhow with leave on, you can use leave on then any setting products afterwards, so the conditioner will help care for the medulla and calm the cuticle, preventing color from fading. Then set as normal. If you use the shae MOISTURE BABY, its a way cheaper CREPE ERASE used regularly. WAY CHEAPER
Sometimes when I put lotion on after shower or bathing, I'd run my fingers through the longer tips of my hair then to the roots once my fingers feel like the lotion film has been removed mostly. That will be best on very dry ends and remember, its all natural. Everything in the bottle is used in quality conditioners without perfumes.
Set as normal..... or ?
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 😘😘😍
I love how easy you make it look😉 your channel inspires me do better and grow more. Thank you!
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!
second 🤣 glad you tested these. I've been curious if they REALLY work.
Still looks so pretty without makeup!!!
Very beautiful!😍 The curls will last longer and you'll have virtually no frizz if you use the right styling cream before wrapping the hair. I really like the anti-frizz line from Living Proof. Also, adding heat with a blow dryer during the setting process will make the curls last longer. I know that defeats the purpose of this being a heatless style, but if you really want the curls to last 1-2 days then you need some heat and the right styling products. Don't forget the heat protectant if you do use heat.
I've tried this a couple of times. I have "almost shoulderblades hiding" length in my hair, and they are very thick. I get a little too tight curls with this method, I like a bit softer but still volymous vawes. I saw one video where the girl twisted sections of both sides of the tie, and I tried to do it home but didn't get it right. My hair got very wrincly, frizxy and messy. I have also tried this same method without the belt and just braded the rest of the ends and it was more comfortable to sleep in. (I'm also very light sleeper and wake alot during the night). Congratulations on your pregnancy, I hope you have a girl so you can some day teach these things to her also 💖. Blessings!!
My niece puts a headband on, kinda like a halo, and takes pieces and folds them back over the headband...works great, and she has very thick hair, check it out, a little easier and works wonders!
And was very comfortable to sleep in also!
The curls look so beautiful and natural.
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👋😄
FINALLY SOMEONE SHOWED THE BACK OF THEIR HEAD!! My hair has been short for like 4 months and I haven’t styled it at all. My hair was really curly when it was long but now it isn’t and it gets greasy REALLY fast. This method worked when I had long hair but I doubt it will work now. I am going to try the twist method.
Ive found for myself, the best overnight curls/waves i get is when i do two dutch braids, but i cant just do it overnight. I have to wash my hair in the morning, put in some curl cream... Do my braids. Day 1 hair IS braids. Then i wear the braids to bed, and by morning they are USUALLY dry. 🙄🤦🏼♀️ I have thick thick hair tho. 🤷🏼♀️ But those curls are my most complimented and look so so good, for DAYS. Like, i usually get 3 good days of curls, and can get a day of a curl ponytail, and then if im lazy and dont wanna wash it, i can get a voluminous bun. So iend up with 5 days of good hair, 6th being meh in a bun if im lazy. Its my new favorite thing.
I have a beach waver tool i use to fix the very ends(cuz they look weird from the braids) but it takes 2 minutes. And then one day 2 and 3 of the curl/waves, i sometimes use the beachwaver for VERY small amount of touch ups. Only if im going somewhere and want it to look perfect.
It works so well for me. I will likely be doing this same routine with every hair wash all summer.it looks just SO good.
My hair is short and not very thick and I do this method too. First day is the braids sometimes I wear them for 2days even. On the third and fourth day I wear my hair out and curly, then for the fifth and sixth day I wear my hair in a low bun or ponytail, seventh day is Sunday I don't got anywhere and I take a shower and do the braids again. I really encourage people to try this one if the robe belt method doesn't work for their short hair.
THANK YOU for telling me what that hair thing is. I haven't been able to figure out what I need to wrap my hair around. Thank you for the help!
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe👋👋
Honestly, I am still confused how you parted your hair perfectly in the back 😯
She used a comb to part in the beginning
Practice
lmao why BRICK HECK as your profile hahah love that guy
@@partypower2708 I know right? He’s such a mood lol
She’s really good at hands on he4 own hair! A pro !
Love it! Looks like you were born with curly hair, so natural!
Seems like it might be easier to use a a long sock, one for each side of the head. So you don’t have the one loooooong piece of material to work with.
I like using one long piece because I wrap the ends up into two "leia-style" buns which i tie up with the loose ends of the band 😊
Maybe better for LONG hair?
Surprised how good this looks!!
Iv done this for years, using a stretch head band. I always get compliments x
Best curls on you I've seen
Hello how are you doing hope you're safe over there😎👋👋
People that know you, must think you spent hours on your hair at the salon for this look.
Your hair looks absolutely marvelous with this large wave curl in it.
