5 ways to have a perfect hairdo without heat Perfect hair in just a few hours (or overnight)
Let’s be honest: perfect hair takes time, patience and often even more split ends than we’d like to admit. But the truth is that you don’t need to fry your hair every time you want a decent blowout. There are smarter, easier and 100% heat-free methods that allow you to get soft, natural waves even while you sleep. Here are five ways to achieve a perfect hairstyle without a hairdryer or straightener.
Hair styling: how to do it at home and without heat
Pillow rollers
Pillow rollers are soft satin-covered cylinders that give hair volume without using heat. Just wrap your strands around them, secure with a knot or elastic, and leave them in place for a few hours or overnight. Once removed, your hair will look soft, full and nicely waved.
Hair rollers
Classic hair rollers, the ones your grandmother used, are still a perfect ally for a voluminous and defined hairstyle. They come in different sizes: the larger the diameter, the wider and softer the curl. If your goal is a ’90s supermodel blowout, go for rollers of at least 40 mm. Sleeping in them can be a bit uncomfortable, but even a couple of hours will do the job.
Braids

Braids are an evergreen method to get effortless beach waves. Braid your hair while it’s still slightly damp after washing, or spritz a little water and let it air-dry. In the morning, undo the braids and gently separate the strands with your fingers to keep the movement soft. The result is light, mermaid-like waves à la sirena, ideal for anyone who wants an easy hairstyle that still looks polished.
Twists

Twists create a naturally curly effect and are easy to do. For a tighter, more defined result, divide your hair into two or three sections; then split each section into two strands, twist them around each other from the roots, and secure with a soft elastic. After a few hours, or overnight, undo the twists and you’ll be left with super natural curls.
Socks
This method is for anyone who doesn’t feel like buying rollers or curlers, or for those who need a hairstyle that turns them into a diva overnight without touching any heat source, because their hair is begging for mercy. Just open your closet and grab a pair of socks: they’ll perfectly replace any tool mentioned above. They work much like pillow rollers: divide your hair into as many sections as you like, wrap each strand around a sock and use the ends to tie a knot that holds everything in place. After a night of waiting, you’ll wake up with a soft, voluminous, five-star-salon hairstyle.
