5 Heat-Free Hair Hacks Worth Trying This Summer

Guess what? The best curls can be made with the help of a pair of athletic leggings. This technique, which is easier than it sounds, can create big, bouncy waves that last for days.

To start, make sure your hair is slightly damp; this will help set the curls more effectively. Then, place the waistband of the leggings on the top of your head, letting the legs hang down on either side. From there, divide your hair into two sections and wrap each section around the legs of the leggings, securing the ends with hair ties or scrunchies. Leave the leggings in place for several hours or overnight for best results. Read our full editor review of how to get heatless curls with leggings here.
