I tried every heatless curls method on the internet and found the best one by far

The Dafni Allure Portable Hair Straightening Brush is a small, cordless brush straightener that's meant to make straightening hair easy. The little brush has some big claims, like how it can work for any hair type, style up to three heads on just one charge, and how it stays at 365 degrees to avoid heat damage. Producer Nico Reyes tries the straightening brush on her curly hair and has her friend Sydney test the brush on her wavy hair to see if the brush actually can straighten different hair types and keep hair silky smooth with no damage.

There are heatless Curls on TikTok.
Sleeping on them overnight is one of the ways to do heatless Curls.
The winner is going to get you the best heatless curls.

TikTok has a style that has been sweeping the social media app. There are over two billion videos using the #heatlesscurls and 46 million videos labeled as tutorials.

Every method promises a simple five minute time investment to prepare the hair and wrap the curls. If you wrap your hair, sleep on it, and wake up with bouncy, natural-looking hair, you don't have to worry about styling it.

That is the idea.

I am a working mother with very little time to myself. I tried seven different methods to find out which was the best. I used damp hair and a small amount of product to start each method.

She told Insider that it wasn't necessary to use a heat protectant. The hair should be separated and pinned away while I work on other sections. It can make something seem difficult if you don't section beforewrapping.

Many of the girls on TikTok have thick strands, so I was worried that my hair wouldn't be the right type for heatless Curls. It might take some time to figure out which method works best for you, since hair type plays a big role.

The only method I used for each was to gather my hair. I put it into the next section every time I wrapped it. As soon as I unwound the hair, I took a picture. I was told that I should shake my hair to separate the strands and then hit them with a spray of spray. She said that brushing or combing your hair could ruin the time.

This is what I found to work best.

I had expected the leggings method to create less hair than it did.

The leggings method advises wrapping your hair around a pair of stretchy leggings and then tying them around your head.Lauren Finney Harden

The time to execute is five minutes.

It's difficult: 6.

The legs of the leggings should be used to wind the curls and the band of the leggings should be used to seal them. It took me a long time to wrap the curls because I wasn't able to start them as high as I wanted. I got into trouble while sleeping.

The entire thing slipped all over my head, making it hard to sleep. I had some straight pieces that were not perfect.

The lazy girl method is one that I would call the scrunchie method. I didn't wrap my hair around the scrunchie. I looped my hair around until there was nothing left. While sleeping, it was very secure. I'm into a more disheveled look and the curls were a little inconsistent.

It turned out to be more difficult than I thought. I was able to wrap them tightly after a few false starts. It went quickly once I started. I was surprised it didn't move in my sleep, and I was surprised how tightly it stayed.

The method was supposed to be easier and tighter than the previous method. It took me a while to learn how to hold my hair. The only way to do this is to divide my hair into two sections and wrap them around a chopstick. I secured the socks with a scrunchie. Thecurls looked more uniform than the other styles, but it was the least comfortable style to sleep in.

In the bun method, you simply pull your hair into a ponytail and wrap it around your finger. It wasn't hard to do, and took me no time at all. I pulled my hair into a bun despite the fact that my pincurls weren't perfect, and despite using a hair tie, there was a small crease where I had pulled my hair into a bun.

The robe method involves winding your hair around a robe belt I wrapped the rest of the robe belt around my head and secured it with a scrunchie. I was surprised at how tight the curls were when I woke up.

The use of a tool designed to create heatless Curls was the hardest of the three methods.

You might think buying a tool for heatless hair would make your life easier, but that's not the case. This was the most difficult thing to hold in place, even with the clip. My hair was already loose when I went to lie down because I had a hard time keeping it in place.

There wasn't enough tension between the hair and the rod, that's why. She says it isn't ideal for most people. I concur.

You can change up your hair with heatless Curls. You don't have to spend a lot of time or money to achieve curls.

I was able to pull off all seven methods. I was surprised by how difficult it was to use the tool and how different the results were.

Thanks to its ease and more natural-looking Curls, the scrunchie method won it all. Even a novice hair person could do this. It will be a nice addition to my hair style.
