heatless sock curls
by flec, Feb 23, 2024, 10:38 PM
with a picture of my hair as a reference, because it's a pretty good one i think considering that my hair does not hold curls
like dyson is literally almost useless for me except drying hair part because my hair won't hold the curls
anyways i tried a sock curl overnight because i heard that was good!
since heatless curls are long-term i expected that to last longer and hold better ig
steps:
1) split your hair into two low/high pigtails
2) hold a sock parallel to your hair flow and hold the top with a claw clip
3) wrap your hair around the sock like you're doing twist braids with two strands
4) if you did low pigtails: tie the bottom like they're braids with a scrunchie.
if you did high pigtails: wrap them into space buns and secure them by stretching the sock and putting them over the space bun
5) sleep with them
i personally did the low pigtails one for mine because they're more comfortable to sleep as i sleep on my side
my explanation sucks and you should probably go on youtube and find a short that has a 90% chance of explaining this better than me
for me, here's the final look
hidden for size
i'd say for me, they lasted like 5 hours, which is pretty good. really good... my hair has never held curls that long. you're talking to someone whose dyson curls last about 30 minutes)
