Heatless curls are having a moment and it’s easy to see why. We’re emerging from a long era of hair double standards and ‘rules’ that are really just thinly veiled propaganda from brands looking to sell us their most profitable tools – like the notion that you should wash your hair every single day. 

We’re now collectively moving away from the damaging hair habits of yore, and into an era where we’re much more likely to consider long-term damage in our hair maintenance. All of this makes it unsurprising that many of us are saying goodbye to curling irons and other hot tools in favor of something a bit more natural. 

Curls that look like you didn’t use any tools or products to get them, but don’t require you to subject your hair to harmful extremes of temperature? Yep, curls like this can be much better for your hair, and can offer a level of convenience that no other method of curling your hair can compete with. In other words, there’s a lot to love about heatless hair. Read on to discover why heatless curls are here to stay.

The Rise of Health-Conscious Hair Care

Heat styling is a major safety hazard: split ends, dryness, burnt strands – it comes with countless risks. If you use heatless curlers, you can have the same twirly effect without frying your hair every time you want to curl it. For many, this softer method is part of a larger ethos of sustainable, health-oriented skincare rituals. You wouldn’t scrub your face raw, right? Well, why would you treat your hair that way?

The Benefits of Heatless Curls

In addition to the fact that they are heatless, which means you don’t have to worry about the damage that heat can do to your hair, the other benefits of heatless curls are more economical. You won’t have to buy costly hair styling equipment or spend long hours using them.

Imagine waking up with your hair already ready to go. Plus, the styling possibilities are endless. Heatless curlers create a range of effects, from loose and texturized beach waves to tighter, more defined ringlets, simply by changing up how you wrap. Since the curls set more slowly, they usually last longer and yield a shinier overall result that will last all day.

Why Silk Is the Superior Choice

Of course, not all heatless curlers are created equal.  Many are made of wire or other plastic-based synthetic fibers that feel rather scratchy and, much more importantly, are unhealthy to sleep on. Their common thread (sorry) is that many of the polyester-based satin options are really just plastic. Repeated and continued exposure to synthetic materials can wreak havoc on your hormones and lead to long-term health problems. 

On the other hand, silk has long been touted for its soothing properties, and for good reason. It’s a natural, non-toxic textile which remains soft and smooth without generating frizz. This in turn means less breakage and more moisture retention. The ‘cling factor’ and static electricity fiasco of synthetics will never be an issue with silk. Imagine sleek, frizz-free curls by morning. This is why 100 percent pure silk is the only option we use at Silknlove Co. Your hair deserves the best.

What Sets Silknlove Co. Apart

Competition is fierce in the heatless curling market but quality products are surprisingly few and far between. A majority of the big brands (Kitsch is the most popular) use a wire filling, which makes the curlers quite rigid and unpleasant to sleep in. Meanwhile, Silknlove’s silk curlers have a soft, flexible  pure cotton core, which gives the curlers structure, while still being comfortable enough to sleep in, which means you can actually sleep normally in the curlers and wake up to perfect curls every day. It also means they last longer without breaking or twisting. Finally, Silknlove Co. offers curlers all the way up to 1.25 inches, allowing you to produce looser, more voluminous curls.

Practical Tips for Using Heatless Curlers

To do heatless curls right, your hair needs to be damp but not too damp (if it’s too damp, it won’t dry overnight; if it’s too dry, the curls won’t hold). You can use a light leave-in conditioner or a cream styling product to help with hold.

Next, choose your wrapping technique depending on the look you’re after. For loose waves, create larger sections of hair and wrap them loosely around your curler; for tighter curls, use smaller sections and wrap them more snugly. Fasten the ends in place and let the curler work its magic all night.

In the morning, after taking out the curler, comb the curls apart with your fingers and use a spritz of hairspray to hold the look. You’re done!
