Heatless Natural Beachy Waves!! - KayleyMelissa

[@goodemily]

I think you looked adorable with the braids and scrunchies. You could totally rock that look. Those giant scrunchies are actually pretty cool.

[@kayleymelissa]

Aw thank you!! I love that you can wear them outside of heatless curls as well! (I haven't yet. I'm afraid I'll lose them, lolz)

[@AlexandraASaenz]

Little tip: part your hair in a zigzag, especially in the back of the head. I also braid my hair to get curls and it really helps to make the hair lay nicer in the back (aka so it doesn’t look like Moses came to part the Red Sea 🤣🤣)

[@roxy148921]

Ooooh this is the tip I’ve been needing!!

[@brinaf2857]

I never thought of that! Thank you!

[@annie4424]

I’ve always had the huge part that never goes away with similar heartless curls methods; this might help with that. Thanks for the tip!

[@AlexandraASaenz]

@@adriananabananana3021 I don’t leave the zigzag. I do a side part in the front so I do straighten that area but the back zigzag falls naturally when you take the braids out.

[@liyadonDMD]

Saaaaaame! It looks sooooo much better when i started to use a zigzag part! Looks more natural.

[@joannas44]

I zigzag the parting down the back, otherwise you can see where it was split while drying. I've got thick hair, so just do two French twists when it's damp in the morning, and leave it for an hour.

[@jlammetje]

And it’s dry then? O_o if I put my hair in any kind of style/structure while not absolutely dry, it stays in that state for what seems like forever. C

[@frickfrack7075]

@@jlammetje my hair never dries unless it's loose lol if I braided it in a bunny blowout, I know I could leave if for 48 hours and it'd still be damp. It would mildew and grow a new species before it'd dry. I'd probably have to go extra small with sectioning and have multiple strips to ensure it'd dry all around. My hair is bleached and extremely porous because of the bleach. Edit: clarity

[@joannas44]

@@jlammetje having the windows down in the car on my commute helps. Blasts it with cold air. Also my hair doesn't want to be in the French twist (twist, not braid) so it's more loose and I guess more air gets in. Also I've normally just spritzed dry hair, rather than semi dried wet hair - otherwise, with my very bleached hair, I'd be waiting forever.

[@RainbowNerds7]

Seeing the Kayley Melissa notification is the highlight of my week! ♥️

[@mariakorolov8095]

I use rolled up silk scarves, to reduce frizz.. I also wrap the hair around or while it's dry and then spray it -- otherwise my hair is still damp in the morning and the curls fall right out. My hair is very straight, so I also use a little mousse in the hair before I wrap, and a soft hold hairspray in the morning after unwrapping.

[@aliiannucci3135]

My fave DIY is bandanas (or scarves)! I fold them diagonally, then roll them up and tie them together to imitate the curling ribbon. The bonus is that in the morning you just untie them where they're tied together at the top, and then you can slide them out from each end--no unraveling!

[@DAmore143]

I’m so confused but intrigued at the same time. What does this mean . Are there tutorials

[@LILmissJISBON]

I've been following you for so long and I love your hair tutorials! I frequently recommend you to friends, especially those interested in the rice water treatments and shampoo! You are glowing and look amazing, I'm so glad you're thriving ☺️

[@smm855]

OMG I love that black top, totes gorgeous! 😍

[@annevernon2604]

I have been put up with a broken ankle the past week and in that time I have FALLEN IN LOVE WITH YOUR VIDEOS!!! My life journey is similar - I fell in love with a woman after a long marriage filled with lies, gaslighting, etc. I’m also getting married. I’m so happy for you and SO grateful for your videos, your active inclusion, and also your entire openness and approach to hair. I also have very fine straight hair that is graying and frizzy and I’m trying to figure out my wedding hair. Thank you SO MUCH for all you do!! You’re making a positive difference in people’s lives… and entertaining me while I recover!

[@mattiekwarren]

I do this same thing but with a robe tie! Gives the same results and it’s free. Turns out so cute every time!

[@cryptic_sunflower]

“Would a straight man look at me funny?” “Yes, but I have a girlfriend and she thinks I look hot.”

[@ulissedazante5748]

I'm a straight man (and shy to be a boomer) and you can sell me that braid+ribbon+scrunchies thing is a look - if the dress is kind of sophisticated+heels, I will totally think you're attending a wedding.

[@kayleymelissa]

Haha! 🙃 I usually get comments like "my husband, bf, etc would make so much fun of me!" So I had that in my mind while I was filming. Celebrating all the boys (and my lovely fiance) hyping up their girl's heatless curls!!

[@mrchristmas4872]

Nah. You're totally fine. Putting weight aren't we.. we'll blame the pandemic lol

[@cherylkolatorowicz563]

Gorgeous!!! Would love to see you do these as base curls for future looks!! Also would love to see different curl patterns you can do with the ribbon and on AL!

[@tracybenson6138]

I've been so excited for this since the last video, never clicked on a notification this fast before!

[@SAmaryllis]

The braided look is cute on its own!! The curl when everything is taken out looks great too :)

[@LifeLiberty614]

I somehow missed this video and not only am I so happy to see your tips on using this method but this is the cutest, sweetest video. Thank you for being you 💖

[@GEngel-bm4np]

YES! I've been waiting all week for this!

[@malinab1]

These all are beautiful but i love the tighter curls!!

[@byggrynsgroet]

i have a special event coming up tomorrow so yesterday i actually went to your tik tok heatless curls with a bathrobe tutorial/experiment you did with Ana Laura and tried it out for myself, and it went amazing! i washed my hair today and redid the wrap as i watched this video and now im really excited to try french braiding my hair like this with the bathrobe some other time, i love the results you got (: rock on gurl!

[@janacox6436]

I have been doing this for a while but I just use two bandanas. It’s awesome.

[@Oonagh72]

The tight curls were gorgeous! However the loose waves are also very lovely.

[@alynicrespilho7934]

They all look SO GOOOOD, I really liked this

[@laurac86]

I just ordered one of these things! Can’t wait to try it out!!! 😆 I’ve only seen it wrapped around it I haven’t seen it braided like you are doing it

[@Angelstar7774]

Absolute best result, most thought out from exp and helpful video on this method! Thank uuuu 🥰

[@IntoTheForest77]

Yessss!!! I've been looking forward to this video since you teased it on your last vid!! Clicked immediately!! Love all the things you do girl!! Can't wait to try this heatless style!! Thank you!!

[@ikixazz23]

I kind of do a criss cross wrap, wrap front half away from face, wrap back half towards face, crossing them over each other, and it turns out like curling iron curls! I also use the silk ones from heatless hair!

[@saafiiiraa]

Isn't that the same effect you get from French braiding? Some strands go away from your face and some go towards your face. And on the bottom part she crisscrosses the two remaining strands to achieve the same effect. :)

[@xqueenfrostine]

@@saafiiiraa not entirely. When you’re doing a crisscross wrap your hair section is doing a full rotation before grabbing more hair from the same side of the curler that section started from. This means all of the hair that’s in front of your ribbon should curl in the same direction (usually away from your face, though you can make them go toward your face by wrapping the hair under the curler instead of over) while all of the hair that comes from behind your ribbon curls in the opposite direction. When you braid, you’re getting hair from both sides of the ribbon mixed into each section which means you’re not getting that separation between front and back. This difference may sound subtle, but it produces a different curl/wave pattern. It’s basically the difference in the way your hair looks after it’s been in a rope braid versus a three strand brand. Rope braids produce more spiraling curls while a three strand braid is more wave that curl because weaving one section between two others adds additional bends to the hair than when you’re just twisting around one.

[@saafiiiraa]

@@xqueenfrostine Disagree

[@sandrabrentel8597]

I will definately be trying this with my thigh high fluffy socks! I think a robe tie is uncomfortable to sleep on but never thought of using those socks I've had for years. 😅

[@AlyssaaRawr]

Gosh you look so good even before you took them out, it looks so cute!!

[@somethingnew1322]

Thank you for this tutorial! I will definitely try it, but since I can sew (and don’t like spending ”unnecessary” money) I will copy the Bunny blowout design and make on myself. I have very long hair so I think I’m gonna make it a bit longer and probably not as thick. I look forward to trying it! 😊

[@IMakeupStuff]

That one little bang piece is living its best, rebellious life

[@melaniep9244]

You look like Princess Grace with your hair in this darn contraption. Seriously beautiful!

[@derrickjenniferwatkins1394]

I love heatless styles!

[@karlaburnette]

Never thought to braid in the ribbon….totally trying that

[@sarahrose5935]

I find that it works best on my hair if it’s 90% dry. And it’s really hit or miss. Plus I’m a side sleeper and it’s not always confortable to sleep with. But I’m really intrigued by the bunny blowout.

[@KR-mx4nt]

Yay thank you!! Heatless are my favorite!!!

[@Jaelily319]

Totally unrelated to this video but that shirt looks amazing on you! I’m absolutely in love with it!

[@Mday2107]

That looks fantastic on you!!

[@dazem8]

im super intrigued by the diy microfiber towel situation. i just might try that 😂

[@DAmore143]

You explain everything to the T . AMAZING! Thank you

[@andreasmith1425]

You are so beautiful and have the best personality 😍 I am binge watching your videos this evening. Haha.

[@Ladyinquisitor]

Wow I’m actually amazed by the idea of doing it on dry hair but misting it damp. I feel like that would probably solve the issue i have of my air-dried hair being super flat. I can’t do heatless styles because it just results in limp roots and frizzy ends.

[@elm7942]

I use the robe belt method and while my hair is still a bit flat it's the only one that doesn't give me frizzy curls in the morning. I also learned to make it work to my liking. You can make the curls tighter or loser depending on how big you grab a section. All I know is it looks good every time.

[@titi15rock]

Loved it! You're so sweet Kayley! Always a blast to watch your videos! I generally use a silk or satin scarf to curl my hair overnight if you want to try for yourself. And same here, if the scarf is large or small in diameter (more like a tie), you get different results. But I noticed that the curls are very tight the first 2 days and then it's more of a wave and a really pretty one!

[@bibliophilecb]

Not me watching this even though this is basically my natural texture 🙈 might do this on my top layers that tend to have a looser curl pattern though! 💛

[@kayleymelissa]

I was thinking that something like that would be helpful!

[@jbdjessa2]

Am I the only one who always wants to see how it turns out on the back of the head? 😀 This is the part that can be so difficult to make look nice!

[@HilBG]

zigzag the part on the back of your head and it will fall more naturally 😊

[@jbdjessa2]

@@HilBG thanks for the tip!

[@haileycrowe6101]

We may need a tutorial for the zig zag on the back of the hair technic. That sounds a little tricky to do.

[@jbdjessa2]

@@haileycrowe6101 I believe it shouldnt be too hard. Take a rat-tail comb, or pencil, and instead of dragging it straight down your head (to divide the hair line), you would zigzag it in a "z" design back-and-forth from the crown of the head down to the base of the neck. The hair line with this method will likely be less visible when released, thereby providing a more flawless appearance to the overall look. 😀

[@shivering25589]

Oh yes!!!!

[@heidicooper7912]

Love the fluffy sock idea.

[@spyrwidonharris4006]

Nice to see you again

[@raquelswavycurls]

I'll definitely try this on my wavy hair! I wonder if it would work on damp hair with some gel? I'd love to have a cast to scrunch out. Time for an experiment 😁.

[@kayleymelissa]

Wooo!! Love a hair experiment! Let me know how it goes!!

[@suzanananushi1954]

i was OBSESSING over these in the last video couldnt wait for this tutorial and now i cant wait to try them out

The phantom hair at the front that didn’t want to cooperate 💜

[@kimberlywilson637]

Love this video going to try it and definitely have learned how to curl my hair for waves, mine never comes out looking beach wavy.

[@momnails1635]

Loved this! I have tried heatless curls a few times and I feel like they all just fall out after a few hours. Looking forward to trying some of these tips/tricks.

[@TraditionsByTheSeasons]

Love. Love. Love. 🧡 Your hair looks amazing! 👌

[@katiecarr2715]

I've been using my hubby's long work socks for years to do heatless curls, you can tie the two together at the top with an elastic to hold it together and make it longer..i had never braided them..I'd take pieces and wrap them and it would never be tight enough so I'm so excited to try braiding them!! Thx for the great tips, girly!!! ❤

[@claireshaw5337]

I'm still in the headband curls stage, it can be compleaty hit and miss whether it looks amazing or really bad, I may have to give this method a try, just so I can do something a little bit different

[@Salvatoro4ka]

The happiest moment of the evening

[@_marieee]

i just French braid my hair and it looks amazing

[@madisonbrown2841]

yeeaaahhh i cannot french braid for the life of me so this did nothing for me but i enjoyed watching your methods and yours turned out amazing 😭😭😭

Oh I hope this works for my most poker of poker straight hair! 30 years of trying... I'll let you know! 🙏 And thank you Kayleigh, you brighten my day 💖

[@littlemissmel88]

This video inspired me to try it (with a bathrobe tie cause it's what I had). Hopefully it looks decent in the morning!

[@jacquieiscool]

I have a curling ribbon I haven't used it a lot cuz I want to try it on really longer hair to see the results

i am noticing the super chic gold jewelry you are wearing.. love

You're a hair genius!

[@Telly9009]

Kayley, do you prefer the Bunny Blowout over the Octocurl?

[@jaimebh30]

I love the hairstyle. I need to try this hairstyle. I need to try it with my black and bright pink fuzzy socks. I would love higher waves because the bottom 1/3 of my hair has loose waves. Do you think the style would look okay on thick hair?

[@kadyranae8945]

I have tried heat less curl and I have had some really good ones and some really bad one

[@randomtripswithme]

Ur adorable, u remind me of the singer, Annemarie. Love the cool style tip

[@xPeckhamm]

Okay… this is the first time I’ve half comprehended the duck curling method…. And I’ve watched every video you’ve ever mentioned it. Bravo for getting through to me!

[@juliarose918]

I'm glad you compared the bunny curls to a curling iron- cause I was like I am not paying that.. but I would pay that for a iron and I hate curling my hair hot sooo now considering...

[@squeekytoy123]

I have very long fine hair, I bought this set and I have to say for the first 5 minutes or so I had beautiful curls! However they all fell so quickly, is there any tips you can give to have the curls last longer? Maybe some product to try before you start braiding...? Great video btw thanks Kayley!

[@AmandaLapinski]

Love a good heatless look for my lazy mornings! (Which is almost every morning. Lol)

[@jenniferharrington4694]

I have a few and have yet to find something that looks good… usually it just frizzes out like crazy… gonna try one of the diy ones and if they work splurge for the ribbon 😉

[@shelby1105]

Can you do a video on favorite drugstore/affordable heat protectants!

[@plasticbabyrhino]

Thank you for this!! I have TE and I've been trying to avoid heat as much as possible until my hair comes back.

[@gumshoegranny427]

Thank God someone finally came up with something besides a robe tie. I don’t own a fluffy robe tie so I almost sacrificed my husband’s 😳👀(I would have to cut it in half). I can’t wait for my own curling ribbon! 😃 I might have to also try the fuzzy socks or microfiber towels.❤️👍🏻😊

[@debbies7487]

I'm so not good with hair! Are you incorporating all of your hair in the back of your head into the braids as well? Want to try this.

[@nikoletahanakova8573]

Similar results could be achieved by using a scarf instead of the socks/robe tie etc. The bigger your scarf, the looser the curles. Also if you don't feel like french braidin, you can always wrap the hair around the scarf from the beginnig. I've been dojng that and it is quite a nice hairstyle. Strait man has lot looked at me funny, he complimented the hair style :-)

[@brinaf2857]

We just love to see you happy! ❤️ I need help... My hairdresser cut my hair way shorter than I expected from our consultation (she knows me, she knows how I wear my hair and I asked for the same cut I always ask for)...what do I do now to look decent while I wait for my hair to grow a bit? Thank you ❤️

[@samanthascheidell7713]

Same here! Kitsch has a heatless curling ribbon that is half the price of the one in this video so I bought two from Kitsch and stitched the end of one to the end of the other. Now I have a 68" heatless curling ribbon perfect for super long hair.

Just found your videos. Congrats!

[@RobinCurrie]

Thank you!

[@chrissyfuhrie]

How do we stop the part from setting in the back of our heads. I only want the curls to set 😂 Every time I try this style I end up having to wear it in a pony or half up half down because my part literally goes from my forehead to the back of my neck and there’s no getting my hair to lay right to hide the part. Loved this video and your curls all turned out so beautifully!

[@maurashouse624]

Is it important that the material be that fuzzy microfiber? There are many curl ribbon products on Amazon that look like padded wire with synthetic satin cover. Should I try one of the Amazon satin ones or jump to diy socks or towels?

[@CrownedLily]

I have naturally wavy hair. Still sat and watched this though.

I loved that “recovering heat addict” comment. 😂 Why do I relate to it so much, tho?

[@ashleyguthrie572]

Thank you for this. My number one frustration with heatless curls is always the little kinky bits at the ends where I tie it

[@Misskitty15]

Where do you get the curling ribbon? What if you just did braids?

[@ingupin]

I am still looking for a heatless curling method for short hair (chin to collar bone) that is easy to sleep on AND also gets the back of my head curled! I have been doing the headband wrap for years but I'm getting sick of how it looks from behind.

[@kmtm91]

Yes! Wish Kayley had give us some tips for styling the back!

[@Cha-Charli]

Instead of that braiding, I take the both strands of hair and alternate a full turn around the ribbon with both . Also with bigger/thicker strands of hair. I think the curls get much prettier - and my hair looks perfect immediately after losing the ribbon - no heat or post styling needed. Also I use hair oil in my ends before putting on the ribbon.

[@kainanimerrill1364]

What do you use to fill in your hairline? Pencil or powder? My hairline is mismatched. Love this btw
