4 Easy Air Dried Hairstyles For 2022

Calling all non hair extension wearers, we see you too! We have some top looks for when you want to let your hair dry naturally but want a gorgeous look at the end. Drying your hair naturally not only gives your hair a break from the heat but also helps to prevent breakage and retain moisture alongside many other benefits. Hair Extension wearers, unfortunately, you’re going to take a step aside for this one, as we never recommend letting your extensions naturally. Take look at our many other journal posts here though where you can get so many ideas for your locks. But for those of you who are rocking your natural hair, we have our favourite air-dried looks for you…

 

1.) Beach Waves 

A look we will never not talk about is Beach Waves. Perfect for all year round, this look couldn’t be easier to do as an air-dried look, all you need is the Heatless Hair Curler and you are good to go. 

Who better for some inspiration than the gorgeous Millie Bobby Brown? Her waves for days give us some serious hair envy.

2.) Volume For Days

Do you want thick, voluminous hair that lasts for days? What a question, of course, you do! You can get just that with the Color Wow Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer which volumises fine, thin and limp hair without any damage or dehydration. Overall, it gives flimsy, hard-to-style hair a new “guts and grab” texture…just what we want! 

Simply, apply to your damp hair by dispensing two to three pumps into your hands and pull through sections of your hair until it is all covered. Follow this by combing it through so it distributes evenly. Then voila, you are good to go to let it air dry. 

Want some inspiration? We love this look created by celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton for the one and only J-Lo. Just look at that volume 😍

3.) Straight And Sleek

A look that we will never see go out of style, straight and sleek is an easy air-dried look to create with the Moroccanoil Hydrating Styling Cream. Highly effective at combating frizz and the effects of humidity on the hair, the cream adds definition and conditions whilst leaving the hair smooth with brilliant shine. 

To use the styling cream, all you need to do is apply 1-2 pumps to your damp hair from the mid lengths and ends and let your hair dry.

Before you know it you can get locks just like Megan Fox, the ultimate inspiration…

4.) Defined Curls 

For you curly and wavy hair girls, you may find that these can often easily loose their definition. So, we’ve got you with the MorrocaanOil Curl Defining Cream which is your answer to bring it back. Providing intense conditioning, the cream also activates a curl memory factor to keep your hair bouncy and control its frizz for hours. It doesn’t stop there, the inclusion of Argan Oil and protein condition detangles and tames your curls so your hair remains smooth with great movement.

To apply, simply use 1-2 pumps on your towel-dried hair and distribute the product evenly. Moroocannoil also states that letting your hair dry naturally allows for a more relaxed curl, so if this is exactly what you are going for, just like Ariana Grande, this defining cream is your new necessity.

Velcro roller FAQs

  • Do Velcro rollers need heat to work? 

    Velcro hair rollers can be used to achieve stunning results with or without heat. Using your hair dryer to apply heat speeds up the setting process, delivering bouncy curls in minutes. 

    However, Velcro hair rollers can be worn to bed, where their clip-free design means they shouldn’t disturb your beauty sleep. Simply apply to dry hair as part of your bedtime routine, and wake up in 6–8 hours to effortless bounce. 

    Both heated and heat-free Velcro roller methods deliver impressive volume and hold. 

  • Can I use Velcro rollers on hair extensions?

    Velcro rollers can be used on human hair extensions just the same as your own hair. Follow all the instructions and advice in this guide to get the best results from Velcro-rolling your hair extensions, and take extra care to avoid tangling, especially close to the bonds.

  • What size of Velcro rollers should I use? 

    The best size of Velcro hair rollers depends on your desired look: 

    • Jumbo (2+ inches): Best for root lift and smoothing. 
    • Large (1.5–2 inches): Loose waves and mega volume. 
    • Medium (1–1.5 inches): Balanced volume with more definition. 
    • Small (0.5–1 inch): Tighter curls and bounce. 

  • Why do my rollers keep slipping out? 

    If your rollers keep slipping out, try working in smaller sections, add a spritz of texture spray, and secure withcurlerclipsfor extra hold.

  • Why do my curls look uneven? 

    Uneven results usually mean uneven rolling technique. To remedy this, keep your sections consistent, apply heat and cooling time evenly, and check your roller placement from root to tip. 

  • Can I combine Velcro rollers with other hair styling tools? 

    Velcro rollers play well with other hair styling tools. Use them after curling irons to lock curls in shape, or roll sections post-straightening for extra volume and smoothness. They’re also perfect for adding hidden lift to half-up styles or popping in after a blow-dry for a polished finish.

  • Should you put Velcro rollers in wet hair? 

    You should not apply rollers to wet hair. Instead, apply to almost dry or completely dry hair for best results. 

  • How long should you leave your hair in Velcro rollers? 

    If opting for a heat-free rolling technique, leave your hair in rollers for 6–8 hours for best results. Some people choose to do this overnight.  

    If setting your Velcro hair rollers with heat, they’ll be ready to remove in minutes. 

     Don’t underestimate the power of Velcro hair rollers – they’re a low-effort, high-impact tool that transforms flat hair into full-bodied drama. Ready to get unrivalled volume, shape, and bounce? Shop Velcro rollers here
