4 No-Heat Hair Extension Styles to Try

Hair extensions are your go-to option to add instant length and volume to your hair. From clip-ins to tape-ins, extensions allow you to wear your favorite hairstyles and look stylish and beautiful on all occasions. But since heat tools are required to achieve most hairstyles, you might be wondering whether heat is safe for your hair extensions.

Zala hair extensions are made from the finest-quality, 100 percent Remy human hair. That means you can use heat tools to style the wefts. However, keeping the heat at a minimum is crucial to avoid possible damage to your hair extensions. Also, make sure to apply a heat protectant to the extensions before using heat on them. 

While you’re free to heat-style your extensions, there are plenty of styles that work well with no heat. 

Here are four no-heat styles that you can try with different types of hair extension methods:

1. Spiral Wand Curls

Step 1: Install the hair extensions in your hair and create hair segments. Take the first hair section and use hair clips to keep the remaining hair aside.

Step 2: Smooth out the hair segment and remove any tangles or knots with a loop brush.

Step 3: Apply a generous amount of leave-in condition to the hair section. Make sure the conditioner covers all the hair, from top to bottom. 

Step 4: Take a flexi rod and apply it to the hair while ensuring the end of your hair securely tucks to the rod. Now, cover the hair around in a rotary motion. Remember to turn the Flexi rod when twisting the hair. This helps create spiral curls.

Step 5: Next, bend the Flexi rod to make the twisted hair firmer. 

Step 6: Repeat step 1 to step 5 for all hair segments.

Step 7: Leave the Flexi rods in your hair overnight and carefully remove them the following day. 

Step 8: Comb your hair with a wide-toothed comb to enhance your beautiful curls. Use a little bit of hairspray, and you’re ready to rock some gorgeous curls!

2. Pin Curls

Step 1: Apply the extensions to your hair and divide the hair into different sections. Take one section of hair in your hand and use hairpins or clips to keep the remaining hair out of the way. 

Step 2: Comb the hair section to remove tangles and knots. 

Step 3: Apply a leave-in conditioner to the hair segment, covering the hair strands from top to bottom.

Step 4: Wrap the hair section around one of your fingers and curl it to the base of the hair.

Step 5: Use bobby pins to secure the curled hair in place. 

Step 6: Repeat step 1 to step 5 for all the remaining hair segments. 

Step 7: Keep the bobby pins in your hair overnight and remove them carefully in the morning. 

Step 8: Brush your hair with a loop brush and give your beautiful curls a finishing touch with a hairspray. 

3. Heatless Wavy Curls

Step 1: Put your hair extensions in your hair and create hair sections. 

Step 2: Take the first hair segment in your hand and tuck the remaining hair to the side with the help of hair clips. 

Step 3: Comb the hair segment thoroughly to remove tangles or knots.

Step 4: Apply a leave-in conditioner to the hair segment, ensuring the hair is moist from the base to the end.

Step 5: Next, start braiding the hair section from the base, working your way to the end. 

Step 6: Apply a hair tie at the base to hold the braid firmly in place.

Step 7: Repeat step 1 to step 6 for the remaining hair segments.

Step 8: Keep the rubber bands in your hair overnight and take them out carefully the next morning.

Step 9: Tease the curls with a wide-toothed comb or loop brush to add extra oomph. 

4. Cute Bouncy Curls

Step 1 to 3: See these steps from the above hairstyles. 

Step 4: Take the first hair segment, twist it at the base, pull the hair segment through the curl former and move the curl former to the root. 

Step 5: Repeat these steps for all remaining hair segments. 

Step 6: Keep the curl formers in your hair for 30 to 40 minutes.

Step 7: Take out the curl former from the hair. Use a wide-toothed comb to tease the hair for extra volume and bounce. Your cute bouncy curls are now ready!
