Applying a little bit of hair spray while your hair is still set in the heatless curler is key to helping keep your curls once the curler is removed.
Setting Your Heatless Curls with Hair Spray
To ensure your heatless curls last after you take the curlers out, incorporating a simple step during the setting process makes a significant difference. Based on best practices, this involves using hair spray before the curls are released.
- Apply Hair Spray: Once your hair is wrapped and secured in the heatless hair curler, lightly mist the wrapped sections with hair spray. Remember, you don't need a lot; a little bit is sufficient to help hold the shape without making your hair feel crispy or heavy.
- Allow Sufficient Time: Leave the hair spray applied and the curler in place for at least 6 hours. This duration allows the hair to fully set in its new curled shape while the hair spray helps lock it in.
Why This Method Helps
Using hair spray while the hair is formed around the heatless curler helps to:
- Solidify the Curl Pattern: The spray provides hold to the hair fibers while they are in the desired shape, making the pattern more resilient once the curler is removed.
- Increase Longevity: Properly setting the curl with a light hold product during the formation phase means the curls are more likely to stay defined and bouncy throughout the day.
By taking this small step during the heatless curling process, you significantly improve the chances of your beautiful curls lasting longer after you take the curlers out.
