Why is the heatless curl technique so popular?
We all know how heat styling tools can strip hair of its natural moisture, leading to dryness, breakage, and dullness.
We’ve all been there - after a long day at work, you are exhausted and ready to get into bed, but you realise you need to have your hair styled for an important event tomorrow. You’ve also noticed your hair is starting to feel more dry than usual, with increasing split ends due to the heat of straighteners and heated curling irons.
Imagine that you instead opt for heatless curls technique. Using pure silk hair accessories is an effective alternative to achieve the same hairstyles without the use of heat. This gentle, heat-free approach not only nurtures your hair but also offers a more sustainable and time-efficient way to style over time.
So - if you’re someone who is often short on time, or if you simply want to keep your hair healthy, this technique will truly transform your hair styling routine to save time and promote healthier hair!

The 4 Step Heatless Curl Routine: Your Guide
Step 1: Put in your Silk Heatless Curler
Achieving beautiful curls starts with using our Silk Heatless Hair Curler. Our heatless curler styles your hair overnight without causing any heat damage, leaving your hair healthier and shinier.
Simply wrap sections of almost dry hair around the curlers, leave them in overnight, and wake up to effortlessly bouncy, voluminous hair. It’s the perfect way to maintain healthy hair while still achieving the stunning styles you love.

Step 2: Secure with Silk Scrunchies
Once your hair is wrapped around the Heatless Hair Curler, you need to secure it in place. Our silk scrunchies are perfect for this step as they gently hold your hair without causing breakage or creases.
Note: Our Silk Heatless Hair Curler Gift Set comes with 2 Classic Silk Scrunchies included (RRP = £20!).
If you have finer or shorter hair, you can alternatively opt to use our Silk Hair Ties, which are suitable for fine hair.
Step 3: Cover with a Silk Hair Wrap
For added protection, hydration and to lock in your curls, use a Silk Hair Wrap (also referred to as a ‘Silk Bonnet’). This step is critical to help to ensure your heat free curls stay in place and your hair remains frizz-free while you sleep.
At night, gently cover your hair in our silk hair wrap to prevent tangling and preserve your hairstyle. The silk fabric helps retain moisture, reduce frizz, and protect your hair from breakage. It’s perfect for preventing hair damage while you sleep, so you wake up to healthier, shinier hair every morning.
Step 4: Use a Silk Pillowcase
A silk pillowcase is a must for anyone serious about protecting their hair. Use our best-selling mulberry silk pillowcase each night to prevent frizz, reduce tangling, and retain moisture, ensuring your hair stays smooth and shiny overnight.
Did you know? Silk is also gentle on your skin, preventing wrinkles and offering a luxurious sleeping experience. Silk is also naturally hypoallergenic and thermo-regulating, meaning it helps to keep your skin cool throughout the night.
TOP TIP: Replace your regular pillowcase with a 100% mulberry silk pillowcase for an easy upgrade to your overnight hair care routine. Combine with the silk hair wrap for maximum overnight protection. Find out more on the benefits of a silk pillowcase vs. silk hair wrap here.
Wake up with heatless curls
In the morning, gently remove the silk hair wrap, scrunchies, and heatless curler. Unwind your hair carefully to reveal soft, bouncy curls. Use your fingers to separate the curls for a natural look or a wide-tooth comb for looser waves. For added hold, finish with a light hairspray or a touch of hair oil.
Pro Tips for Morning Styling:
- Avoid using brushes as they can create frizz and disrupt the curl pattern.
- Use a silk scrunchie during the day to maintain your curls without causing damage.
Benefits of a silk heatless hair care routine
Embracing a silk heatless hair care routine offers numerous advantages that go beyond just avoiding heat damage. By incorporating silk hair care accessories into your daily routine, you can enhance the health and appearance of your hair while indulging in the ultimate in comfort and elegance. Here are some key benefits of adopting a silk heatless haircare routine:
1. Reduced Hair Damage and Breakage
One of the primary benefits of a silk heatless hair care routine is the significant reduction in hair damage and breakage. Silk accessories, such as pillowcases, scrunchies, and hair wraps, provide a smooth surface that reduces friction and tension on the hair, helping to maintain its strength and integrity.
2. Enhanced Hair Moisture Retention
Silk is a naturally moisture-retentive fabric, which means it helps to maintain the hair's natural oils and moisture levels. Unlike cotton, which can absorb moisture from the hair, silk allows your hair to retain its essential hydration, keeping it soft, shiny, and frizz-free. This is particularly beneficial for those with curly or textured hair, which tends to be more prone to dryness.
4. Reduced Frizz and Enhanced Shine
Silk's smooth surface helps to reduce frizz and enhance the natural shine of your hair. The reduced friction between the hair and silk prevents the cuticle layer from roughening, which is a common cause of frizz. As a result, your hair remains smooth, manageable, and shiny, making it easier to style and maintain.
