H1 248x300 7 Different Ways to Create Curls

Have you ever been curious as to how to create curls without doing any damage to your hair? Many ladies question how they can get the style that they want without doing any damage to their hair. We all want luscious locks but hate to bother with any curling irons to prevent heat damage. There are many ways to create curls without doing the damage.

1. Braid your Hair

Creating braids is a quick and an easy way to create curls without adding any heat to your hair. You can start off with a damp section and do individual braids. If you do smaller braids you will have tighter curls and fewer braids will create loose curls. If you sleep in them over night it will allow them to dry. Take them out in the morning, spritz them with curl spray and they will stay beautiful throughout the day.

2. Bantu Braids

A Bantu knot works the same way as a normal braid does. Instead of braiding each section you will twist the hair around until it starts to create a knot. When the knot is tight, pin it down to your head and sleep in it. After that take it out and your style is ready.

3. Bun Style

If you want a different type of curl you can let your hair dry in a bun. This is a great way to get a wonderful loose curl. All that you have to do is twist your hair up at night and allow it to dry or put styling product in it. You can also wear a bun throughout the day at work for waves that are a bit sexier.

4. Rag Style Curls

In order to create rag curls you will need a couple of pieces of material. Cut strips from an old shirt and section your hair. Slowly start at the ends of them, roll your hair up around the rag to your head. After, secure the curl by knotting your hair with a rag.

5. Pipe Cleaner Curls

A great way to create curls without heat is by using pipe cleaners. It sounds crazy but it is similar to using a pipe cleaner. All that you need to do is wrap your hair around the pipe cleaner and then secure it in your hair.

6. Foam Roll Technique

There isn’t anything wrong with using some foam rollers to get the perfect curlers without any heat damage. There is a reason why you have those things in your hair so long, it’s so that they work. Foam rollers can be found at any store and they are a classic beauty supply.

 

7. Pin Style Curls

 

There is another option for curls that are more effective during the day. In order to create a pin curl you need to section off your hair and roll the hair up to your head as if you had a roller. You will then secure this with a bobby pin. You can either keep the curls big or allow them to lay flat against your head.

 

If you’re curious as to how you can enhance or style curls without heat these are some of the most effective methods to getting them how you want. There are many different tricks and depending on your hair type, some of these methods may be more efficient than others.
