There’s nothing that completes a look more than having a ‘good
hair day’, but unfortunately a lot of the time in order to get the sleek salon
look we have no choice other than to put our hair through a lot of trauma using
heated hair stylers, which can cause dryness and breakage.
A curly blow-dry is my ‘go to’ when I get my hair done, so I
was delighted to try ‘Dreamy Curls’ headband which allows you to get the look
of a curly blow-dry without the heat of a hair curler or styler.
I regularly curl my hair using my instyler, and while at the
beginning it was tricky to get the hang of, I find that the results are brilliant.
Your hair is big, bouncy and the curls hold for a long time. However, it is
very time consuming and in the mornings I generally wouldn’t have the time to
curl my hair. So, I figured that the ‘Dreamy Curls’ headband would be a great
option to achieve my favorite glam hairstyle with minimum effort.
Using the headband is fairly straight forward. You simply
pop the headband on top of your head and wrap sections of your hair around it
towards the back of your head until the two sides meet. Dreamy curls also have
a step by step video tutorial on their website which you can watch here.
The night before using the headband my hair was blow-dried
as normal but not styled. I popped the headband on, went to sleep and in the
morning applied my makeup and took it off before heading to work. One thing I
will say is that if you move around in your sleep a lot the bad can slip off
slightly, but once you’ve enough hair wrapped around it the bad should stay
secured.
The night before The next morning
Overall I was quite happy with the results. There are three
variations of the headband, and I went for the 4cm ‘Wavy’ band, which means the
curls are slightly bigger and softer. It didn’t have the full impact of a curly
blow-dry or instyler curls however I think my hair may have been too dry, and
better results could be achieved if my hair was slightly damper. I was still really
impressed though as you still get great results with no frizz and a nice bounce to your hair. It
doesn’t take long at all to pop in your hair the night before and take off in
the morning when you’re rushing out the door. The headband also comes with a step by step instructions booklet.
I was sent the headband to do an honest review and I can honestly
say that I would recommend it for its handiness, effectiveness and the great
results that you can achieve from using the product.
