By now, we've taught you a ton of ways to curl your hair without using any heat. As much as we love curling our hair, we'd prefer not to damage it, which meant that this fantastic hair hack using socks was a revelation.
Now it's time to straighten our hair without the heat. On the days when we're not busy and don't have to use the hairbrush that doubles as straightener, we need a way to achieve the same look without the harm to our locks.
Luckily, we found a way that's so easy, it only takes ONE tool and a little patience. And chances are, you have it somewhere in your house. Actually, you may even have a bunch!
All you need are some bobby pins to help tame that mane.
First, while you hair is still wet, get your hair into a tight ponytail. We recommend doing this with a fine tooth comb to really get stray hairs to lay flat. It's important that the ponytail stay tight so when the roots dry out they will lay flat on your head. Keep the strand ends damp by converting the ponytail into a bun. Keep your hair like this for an hour or so.
Next, release the bun and brush out your hair. Take one-inch sections of your hair and wrap them over your head, almost like a milk braid. Secure each section to your head with two or three bobby pins.
When you've finished, wrap your head with a scarf if you plan on sleeping while you're straightening your hair. If you keep you hair like this for a minimum of five hours, you should have beautiful, straightened hair!
We think that this is one awesome hair hack. Even if it sometimes doesn't work the first time you try this, with a little practice and a little patience you could master this technique in no time!
