How to Style Curly Hair Without a Blow Dryer

Curly hair has a reputation for being dry, difficult to manage and frizzy. Worse yet, blow-drying curly hair tends to add to the frizziness and contributes to split ends and scalp damage. Curls also tend to belong to thick heads of hair, meaning a tremendous amount of energy is spent by the stylist during the unhealthy drying process. Luckily, there are a variety of hair styles that do not require the use of a hair dryer, yet leave your curls looking fresh, moist and stylish.

Instructions

Shampoo and condition your hair thoroughly. During the conditioning phase, a wide-tooth comb will help ensure that the conditioner reaches all the strands of your hair. Combing while conditioning also helps to prevent knots that could develop after rinsing.

Massage a leave-in conditioner into your scalp and work it toward the ends of your hair shaft with your fingers. The leave-in conditioner is a separate product from the conditioner you rinsed out in the shower. Leave-in conditioner is a lightweight substance that keeps your hair soft and smooth without the weight of the more powerful rinse-away conditioner.

Pat a towel on your hair gently and avoid rubbing. Abrasive rubbing can cause your hair to frizz or even break as it dries. Patting the towel on wet head also helps give the leave-in conditioner time to settle into the pores of your scalp and hair strands, instead of getting absorbed into the towel.

Comb your hair again with the wide-tooth comb, separating it into a part wherever you desire. Keep in mind that over-combing or brushing can actually create more frizz, so only comb enough to smooth out any potential tangles and to create a part.

Rub a small amount of alcohol-free, lightweight gel onto the palms of your hands and squeeze the curls in a scrunching motion. If this does not create the effect you want, spiraling sections of your hair around your finger can help make a more dramatic curl. The lightweight gel helps hold the curls in place without drying out your hair with harmful, weighty chemicals.
