How to Curl Hair Overnight with a Headband?

Published in Hair styling 2 mins read

Curling your hair overnight with a headband involves wrapping sections of your hair around the band to create heatless curls.

Here's how you can achieve heatless curls with a headband overnight:

  1. Prepare Your Hair: Start with slightly damp hair. You can lightly mist your hair with water or a curl-enhancing spray.
  2. Place the Headband: Position a flexible headband around the crown of your head, as if you were wearing a halo.
  3. Wrap Your Hair:
    • Take a small section of hair near your face.
    • Wrap it around the headband, pulling it under and over the band.
    • Add more hair to each section as you continue wrapping toward the back of your head.
    • Repeat on the other side, ensuring the wraps are tight to prevent loosening overnight and to create defined curls.
  4. Secure the Ends: Once all hair is wrapped, secure any loose ends with small bobby pins or tuck them into the wrapped sections.
  5. Sleep on It: Leave the headband in overnight while you sleep.
  6. Remove and Style: In the morning, carefully remove the headband. Gently separate the curls with your fingers and style as desired. You can use a light-hold hairspray to maintain the curls.

Tips:

  • Wrapping your hair as tightly as comfortably possible around the headband helps create tighter, more defined curls. If wrapped too loosely, the curls might be too flat.
  • Experiment with different headband widths and wrapping techniques to achieve your desired curl type.
