As someone with pin-straight hair, I’m a huge fan of heatless hairstyles. Most of the time, doing something to my hair overnight is the only way that I can get any style to stay for a long period of time. If you feel the same, this is definitely the list for you. This list is sure to inspire some amazing new hairstyles from you, with virtually no heat at all!
1 Tight Curls
I come from an ethnic background, so my entire family has these gorgeous, amazing curls in their hair. I, however, got the short end of the stick (depending on how you look at it) and have absolutely pin-straight hair that couldn’t hold a curl if I wanted it to. One night, I got really sick of it and found a hack that could fix my hair curse. Simply twist small sections of your hair and pin them to your head. When you wake up, you’ll have gorgeous tight curls that last all day long!
Frequently asked questions
2 Beach Waves
If you want beach waves but aren’t sure how to achieve the look with a curling iron, this hack will save you from hours of YouTube tutorials teaching you exactly how to twist the curling iron. Separate your hair into two sections and then twist them until they’re in little buns on the top of your head. Whether you want to run errands in the hairstyle or simply sleep on it, you’ll have perfect beach waves in a few hours!
3 The Side Bun
Spin pins are a gift sent from heaven above, in my opinion, especially as someone who loves heatless hairstyles. If you want your hair to look like the perfect blowout, start with straight hair. Put your hair into a side bun and secure it with a spin pin. When you take it out later in the day, you’ll have the perfect blowout most women can only dream about!
4 Bombshell Curls
For this hair DIY, simply roll sections of your hair into a perfect, little circle and then secure it with a clip. Sleep on it, and when you take it out in the morning you’ll have bombshell curls that will leave most people jealous. You’ll look like you just stepped off the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show!
5 The Sock Bun
I am the sock bun’s biggest advocate and I have absolutely no regrets about it. I absolutely love the sock bun because it’s one of the few hairstyles that you can wear when you’re out doing nearly anything, but when you take it out your hair looks absolutely gorgeous. I especially love to wear it to the beach or when I’m spending the day in the sun. It keeps my hair off of my face all day, and when I’m ready to take it out to go to dinner or somewhere else, you’re left with the most beautiful look that looks like you spent all day on your hair!
6 The Wet Hair Sock Bun
I discovered this hair hack in high school. If you want to style your hair in the morning but don’t have the time to shower in the morning, take your usual shower at night and then put your wet hair into a sock bun. The sock bun stops your hair from drying, and when you wake up you can still style your wet hair however you please!
7 French Braid Ponytail
Are you looking for a hairstyle that’s intricate and turns heads without really doing anything difficult? Put your hair into a ponytail, take a chunk of your hair, braid it, and then wrap it around the entire ponytail in a slanted fashion. You’ll look like you spent hours on this hairstyle that took you a few minutes!
