Hey everyone! I have embraced my natural hair for 2 years now to get my curls to where they are, but I want to do something different with my hair tonight. I’m a little paranoid about ruining my progress haha. Should I use a blow dryer on warm and a round brush? Or would using a curling iron not be significantly damaging? Any other tips you have? Thank you in advance!!
I’m ready to dive into the world of overnight heatless curls! I’m overwhelmed by the options. What is your favorite/most effective method?
Does anyone know ways that I can stretch my hair without heat? I’m trying to avoid heat damage. Thank you
Wavy girl here! I’ve just started the curly girl method like a few days ago. I grew out my hair during COVID - rarely before did I wear it longer than a bob and often had it in a pixie. Now it’s past my shoulders and I realize the reason my hair went crazy anytime other than right after I wash it is because I’ve got a bit of wave! I’m trying to coax it out and it is currently looking quite promising when wet, but it falls out quickly. Waiting on some gel to arrive, currently just using curl cream and scrunching.
I like to sleep with my hair wrapped up around a scarf (like the robe tie trend) cause it comes out quite nicely voluminous with some nice curl/wave but I wonder if this will interfere with encouraging my natural wave pattern? If I don’t do something to my hair at night it goes crazy.

Wondering if any wavies have attempted this and how it went with your natural wave pattern. There's a 'trend' sweeping TikTok (pretty sure people were doing this 100 years ago before the internet, but such is life) of essentially laying a robe tie or other long piece of fabric/material across your head, braiding hair around it on either side, and revealing big barrel curls the next morning.
