When you have straight hair, it’s difficult to get voluminous, curly hair without spending several hours in the bathroom. Luckily, TikTok is once again making our everyday lives easier with an ultra-practical tip. The principle? Create voluminous, natural curls with a curling iron… on tied hair. Thus, 5 minutes is enough to curl all the hair.
To perform this trick, just two tools are enough: a curling iron and an elastic band. We start by gathering all the hair into a high ponytail on top of the head. Protect the lengths with a thermal protection spray, an essential product, before heating it. Finally, use the curling iron to surround the iron with a section of hair and hold for a few seconds, then release the section of hair. Repeat this step throughout the ponytail.
Once all the strands of hair are curled, gently remove the elastic. Result? The hair falls to the shoulders and we are adorned with beautiful curls… in just a few minutes.
If you have a curtain fringe, straight or simply shorter locks in front, the way to curl the hair with this technique varies a little bit. In these cases, we leave the fringe aside and style it separately, after having finished curling the lengths.
We owe the trick to a video that went viral on TikTok. With no less than 11.9 million views and 1 million likes, the video by content creator Trinity (@trinnittyy__) won over users of the social network.
In the video, the young woman explains how to quickly curl her hair. She then ties her hair in a high ponytail and only curls the lengths. The latter states that she has a lot of hair and a gradient. Not the easiest to style. And yet, when she removes the elastic, all her hair is curled up like a pro.
