We're always trying to use less heat on our gruaig but that involves mastering the heatless curls method.
And it's safe to say it isn't as easy as the influencers claim it is.
There have been far too many nights where we've gone too bed with our heatless curls in, expecting to wake up with ringlets an Irish dancer would be envious of, only for our hair to have the limpest wave known to man.
But what are we doing wrong?
There are two heatless curls hacks we've tried that have hepled us master the technique and one is using lightweight products before you put your heatless rollers in. One thing we've all been guilty of doing is using products that are too rich and heavy.
They weigh our hair down, which means the curls never take to our gruaig. The best thing to do is to wash your hair with a lightweight shampoo. Apply some dry shampoo if you need to give your hair more texture.
Another hack that has helped us is to avoid brushing out your hair with a regular brush. The best thing to do is to use a wide toothcomb or shake out the curls with your fingers.
Make sure to gently shake out the curls or else you'll lose the shape.
