Curling irons – as much as we love them – can wreak havoc, from heat-damaged tresses to tired triceps and hard-earned burns. So if you want to take a little break from your trusty styling tools, try this heat-free overnight trick.
1. Start with damp, tangle-free hair and a fabric headband secured with bobby pins around the crown of your head.
2. Wrap small sections of hair around the headband, looping each section until the ends are tucked in (like so).
3. Continue wrapping hair, moving from your temples around to the back of your head.
4. Get some shut-eye.
5. Wake up and carefully unwrap your tousled curls.
