Heatless Curl Showdown! Octocurl vs. Robe Tie Curls, Curling Rod, Leggings, Headband & Socks

[adileneesqueda]

Using leggings was the best thing I learned from TikTok. I would never go back to using heat on my hair again. They last so long too.

[elizabethphillips]

Literally tried robe curls for the first time the night before you uploaded this! Ready to up my game already 😎 You give the absolute best advice Abbey! You help me feel like my best self 💕💕

I have an OCTO curl that I haven’t used for about five years. I think my hair was too short at the time even though I was excited about using it but now my hair is long enough so I’m going to give it a try. Thanks for the reminder and the inspiration.

[Godmylastalias]

The curling rod works perfectly for me. I spray my hair with sea-salt-spray beforehand and after I’m done with curling and curl every single strand of hair around it. Like I don’t add more strands as I go I just curl one strand til it’s done, and then curl the next strand of hair around the same curling rod. I have very heavy and thick hair and curls (even curling irons) normally last like 3 hours max. Curls with the curling rod stay pretty the whole day

I grew up having thin socks tide around my head before every Sunday morning. The sock curl always made my hair look great. It was a different method and a different time, but my maw maw knew what was up.

I got super excited seeing this video on my feed! I really feel like my heatless style prayers have been answered! Thank you so much for being super informative and showing us all the variations of styling!! I tried the robe style curls right after watching one of your recent vids raving about them and the curls turned out so good! Super satisfied you accepted this request!!

[Madamchief]

Does anyone have a technique that doesn't just flatten the top? I work so hard to build volume with my ultra fine hair and when I try heatless curls, the bottom looks frizzy and the top just gets smooshed to my head 🫤

[baileydubs]

I bought a heatless band thing per watching you do the robe thing and tried it out this week and it turned out so great! Curls lasted for 3 days!!

[JLGoode]

Can you do a video showing the three different methods of the octocurl please? Interested in seeing the results in the curl.

[JessicaC.]

Have you tried the heatless flower curl yet? That one is really cool! Super comfortable and it works amazingly well!

[eyung]

“I can assure you I was not filming this video when I was 5 years old” had me rolling 😭😭

[cassiegreulich]

Omg the way you tie the ends of the octocurl is a game changer! I have it but didn't always love it cuz the ends would get so kinked!!

[EmmaMercury]

Ahhh this is so gorgeous Abbey!! I've been thinking of this for awhile now but have you ever thought about getting a qualification in hair? You know so much about it, even going into the fine science of it, and i feel you need a certificate 🤩🙌

[emmaliesse]

Heatless curls have changed the game for me! I use leggings and I get such beautiful and defined curls that last all day plus it saves me so much time in the morning! Never wanna go back to using a curling iron

[ambergerhelper]

Red’s Makeup Bag has a great video for Bob length hair. Hers turned out amazing.

[paolagallegos]

i LOVE the ocotocurl!! they saved my hair from so much heat been buying from them for the longest 😄

[franziskani]

I notice that the strands you are wrapping are quite thick. More curling effect, tighter locks and probably lasting longer if the strands are thiner.

[Chasethatdopamine]

I'd love to see all of the 3 different finished options with the octocurl to see the difference placement makes

[franziskani]

To get tighter curls and not a lot of fabric on your head: Cut off pieces of the legs of pantyhose, stretch them a bit so the edges will roll in, no fray no running stitches. (you cut off let's say a ring piece from the leg of 4 - 5 inches. The initial stretch widens the ring - that causes the open edges (from cutting it, regular scissor, sharp is better) to roll in. The ring will get wider and the 4 - 5 inches will shrink. Then you can use them. Taking 2 or 3 of them for more thickness. Winter panty hoses (microfibre) will be better for the purpose, thicker material.

I have tried cutting off those rings from cotton polyester mix - but there is some fraying, shedding. So it is better to stick with the polyester stuff.

Try out when you cut off the first piece, it depends on the material too how much it shrinks.

Once can easily wash those things (put them in a net so they will not get lost). The raw edges will not deteriorate.

Rings from panthoseses that are only 1 inch wide and then stretched (they are long) can replace rubber bands (real rubber often disintegrates and it becomes a sticky mess, I had that within the crafts supplies - and not all of them were in clear plastic bags so the mess outside a bag stuck to some yarns).

I also use them in the garden for plants - still looking for green pantyhose for sale somewhere ;) Or white ones that I could dye and then cut up.

I got an octocurl from shein for $5, just a heads up for my girls or boys that can't afford name brand!
