I couldn't find the ebay store i bought the flexi rods from, but maybe you can get them off amazon here https://amzn.to/34xaq1b
Hey guys so today I am going to be doing a heatless, curls hairstyle tutorial for you. In my last video I had some curls in my hair and you guys are just so awesome. I think around 3/4 of the comments were commenting on my curls and requesting that I do a heatless curls hairstyle tutorial. So I decided that I would do one for you guys today so to curl. My hair, I used flexi rods and flexi rods are basically just flexible. Stick with some foam wrapped around them. It kind of looked like snakes or something, and the reason I like Keys and flexi rods is because one they require no heat, and you guys know that. I don't like using any heat in my hair because I'm trying to keep it as long and healthy as possible, and the second reason I really like them is because they are super super cheap. I think for a couple packets and only cost me a couple dollars. I bought mine off eBay, but you can get them off Amazon off eBay at your local beauty supply shop and you can get different sizes, there's a bunch of different sizes. I got the orange one and the grey one, I'm not sure the exact size of these, but I will put it right here and yeah. I just really really like them. So I'm going to get into the tutorial right now and I hope you enjoy it all right. So I'm first going to start by brushing out my very long Mane with my trusty wooden brush and then I will just apply a little bit of argan oil into my ends and I just think that it makes my curls come out a bit more soft and Shiny and lustrous now I'm going to start putting in the rollers. I don't really have a specific way that I section off my hair. I just kind of do it the lazy way and grab whatever hair is available, but I do try and do the top portion of my hair first. So the crown of my hair first and then I do the bottom section after and I'll just mention that that spray that I was just putting in my hair is just water in a bottle. I just kind of like to damp in my hair a bit while I'm curling it, because I find that the curls come out a bit better. I'M sure some of you can do this with fully wet hair, but you know I have very long thick hair and if I was to curl my hair right out of the shower, I would wake up the next morning and it would still be damp and wet. So here's a little close-up shot for you guys, as you can see, I'm just twisting the end of my hair around the rod and then rolling up, and once I get to the top of my head, I will just bend the ends of the roller over and Secure my hair in place also a lot of people just twist their hair around the rod like this there's so many ways you can actually use these flexi rods, I'm just showing you today the way that I did it the other day to achieve the curls. In my previous video, but you can just play around and find what works best with your hair and I'm using the orange and the grey flexi rods today. So I usually put the orange ones kind of closer to my face to kind of frame my face because it's a smaller rod and then I do the gray ones around the back of my head. So I am going to just quickly speed this up for you and I will see you in a minute all right. So now I have all my hair in the curlers and I just usually pinned these bangs back because they drive me a bit crazy and then I just spritz my hair with a little bit of water to dampen it up and oh, oh, how did that clip? Get in there, I am sorry about that, so this is what they will look like and now I am just going to go to sleep and I will see you in the morning when I take them out good night. You you
Comments
Purple Puppy: Wow those curls look gorgeous, kinda better than iron curls. Im sick of putting all this heat in my hair just to end up with dissapointing curls and burnt fingers occassionally. I can finally have curls without frying my precious locks
R .Lapointe: Sarah, thanks for making all these great videos! You really brighten my day! You are such a beautiful energy on YouTube! Many thanks for your constant inspiration!
holistichabits: Thank you so much for watching them!! I'm so happy you like them :) I plan on doing a skincare series eventually :)
Meg Meg: Beautiful eyes. Thank you for the tutorial! :)
水森茉莉: This is my ideal hairstyle !!!! Thank you for the tutorial!!!!
Jennifer Bond: Thanks so much!! I did this for my daughter for her school picture day and it came out great!!
holistichabits: I definitely would love to do a video on this topic! Yes I am happy a lot, but I also get down as well. In fact today was one of those days. Life is a pendulum. You need to feel cold to know what warmth is, you need to experience dark to know what light is, and you certainly need to know what sadness is to fully appreciate happiness. And when you feel sad remember EVERYTHING gets better. it 100% always does. But yes, I will try and make a video with some tips <3 :)
holistichabits: Yes!! do it :D I know I haven't done these curls in awhile cause can be lazy when it comes to styling my hair LOL but now I think I will do them more often!
Michelle Brumwell: So beautiful! Amazing hair! Thanks so much for posting!
88sjp88sjp88: My hair is so thick and a curling iron never works. Thank you for this tutorial! I purchased the flexi rods and my hair is bouncy and full, without heat :)
Tanya Jundt: Hello, I absolutely love your videos and tips! I stumbled across them while looking for a holistic way to whiten my teeth. Since then I have watched almost all your videos and now do oil pulling regularly! I tried this heatless curl method with no luck :( I think my hair is too fine for these rollers, not to mention they are so big and bulky, ugh, how do you sleep in them?! Anyway, In my quest for heatless curls I came across Bantu Knots! Works like a charm and I would be interested to see you do a video on them :) Happy curling!
Maddy Limee: THANK GOODNESS!!! I've found heartless curls done by someone with thick hair like me, my hair is so hard to do some of these with because it's heavy and it's so much to try and put up but this helped a lot ❤️
Anna Castillo: I'm convinced to go heatless!! Thank you for your tutorial! !
holistichabits: It's actually a dress! I got it at H&M a couple years ago :) I just thought it suited the fancy curly hair theme :P haha. Thanks for watching!
Maisie Patricia: I love this, it looks so natural and pretty :)
About Christina: Those curls look great! I will definitely try and get those flex rods & give this a try. I usually just braid (or plait) my hair when its wet, and it creates waves, but would love to be able to have nice bouncy curls instead :)

BlueEyes2596: I adore your videos! You always give such inspiring advise and useful information, naturally! I was wondering, could you make a video on your skin care routine? You don't have to reply (although I think it's awesome that you usually do!) I just thought I'd put in a request! Thanks for taking the time to make such wonderful videos. :)
Yanran He: You give me hope! My hair is as long and as thick, I thought it is impossible to curl my hair
Kelly Lin: You are so gorgeous! More makeup tutorials please :)
holistichabits: Thanks! my shortest length was about past my shoulders, and one thing I loved was how wavy and voluminous my hair was!! but now that it's longer it's super heavy and hangs more straight :( But I still rather have long hair! hehe
Amanda Landaverde: This is wonderful! I just subscribed and I noticed that your skin looks flawless! Could you possibly do a video on skincare? :)
Hass An: You're gorgeous! Thanks for the tutorial :)
holistichabits: it was at my shortest length, which was underneath my shoulders! And for reference it is now a bit past my belly button. so it grew quite a bit! it varies for everyone i think. don't let the 3 years scare you, because my hair felt long after around a year or two. but I just mean it took three years since I started actually concentrating on making it long xoxo
Vivian Chen: Your hair is so beautiful just like the rest of you!! Stay gold! Comment if you hey the reference How long do the curls stay in?
lisa: your hair looks amazing and so pretty! thx so much for this video
Taylor Ashley: these curls are gorgeous!
Keely Nguyen: Love it! Do the curls last all day or do you still have to add hairspray? If you use any product like a hair spray I would love to know what kind you use!
Jules London: This is great! Love your videos! I randomly found your videos today when looking at natural mascara videos..(odd!) and I've been slowly ditching heat on my hair for awhile now.. but was afraid to say goodbye to my curling iron. I have a love-hate relationship with it, because I burn myself a lot.. so I am going to try this! I have one question though! What brand Argan oil do you recommend? I am having a hard time finding it.. and it's surprisingly expensive!
Stephanie: I have to try this! Thank you!! My hair are soooo messed up right now. I am trying to be more gentle with them because I dye them every 3 months for the past 15 years and now... omg... they are angry at me ahah! No more heat or bad products in my hair for now on! :D
IceRose13M: You can also use socks or plastic bendy straws the same way, and just tie the ends together once. They're still reusable and are cheaper than rollers. :)
PrettyGirlNikka: What an amazing video!!!!!! I Loved the tutorial :0) Thanks!
XOLorena: You're literally the prettiest girl i have ever seen.
bieberswag1o6: Wow I love those curls! They look so pretty on you, I wish I could have long hair like you
Karsyn Smith: I have to say what everyone is thinking. You're stunningly beautiful! Your eyes are very pretty, as well as your hair's color and length. You're practically a model!!!
Alexis Campbell: So simple! I love it. Btw you're gorgeousss
Beauty Girliez: The curls are so pretty!! My hair is shorter so when I curl it it looks really short
Jennifer A: I've tried these before and they slid out of my superfine, medium length hair. Any thoughts on using them with finely textured hair?
stardustonmyheart: I subscribed today. Love all your videos!!! You are proof that organic stuff can be cool too!
holistichabits: yes, very easy! :P Thanks for watching xo
