There’s no question how effective heat tools can be when styling our hair. On the same hand, we know every time we use them, our hair has to pay the price for it. Heat protectant products can only be so effective, and the only way to truly protect your hair from heat damage is to not use the tools at all. But how are you supposed to style your hair without using the straightener or curling iron? Always start off by washing your hair with a great sulfate free shampoo, apply some leave-in conditioner as needed and check out these heatless hairstyles to try.

Braided Twist

Start by parting your hair to one side, take the large section of your hair in front and make a regular braid. When you’ve got the braid finished, pull the loops a bit to increase the volume. Then simply twist your remaining hair away from your face and fluff it out a bit. Wrap the twist around the braid and secure it and you’ll have a unique and creative hairstyle that looks like you spent a lot of time on it, but really didn’t. And you never have to use heat tools to pull this look off.

Half-Up, Half-Down Bun

The half-up, half-down bun is one of the most popular heatless hairstyles. Depending on how long your hair is, you may need to use some clip-in hair extensions to achieve it. The key to personalizing this hairstyle is pulling out certain hair strands from the bun in order to frame your face. It’s the perfect messy hairstyle that can be worn for many occasions.

Double Dutch Braids

This hairstyle is simple enough, and requires you to part your hair down the middle and create two dutch braids. The creativity is up to you, as you can add hair extensions for volume, incorporate hair accessories and more. With a little practice, you can create nice tight braids without using any heat tools to make the hair stay in place.
