FAQ

Do I use the BlairCo heatless curler on wet or dry hair?

Contrary to popular belief, heatless curlers work best on dry hair or hair that is only very slightly damp.

The curl forms as your body heat gently molds the hair around our ultra-soft sherpa fabric. If hair is too wet, it won’t set properly. For best results, start with fully dried hair or lightly misted ends.

Do I need a rigid or cylindrical curler to get round curls?

Nope — and this is one of the biggest misconceptions about heatless curls.

You do not need a hard, rigid, or cylindrical rod to create beautiful, round curls. Our BlairCo soft sherpa curler creates gorgeous, bouncy curls based on how you wrap the hair, not how stiff the rod is.

The soft design is what makes sleeping comfortable — and why you wake up with curls instead of a headache.

Why is the BlairCo curler soft instead of firm?

Because comfort matters.Our handmade sherpa heatless curlers are intentionally soft so you can actually sleep in them. The curl is formed by:

  • Your wrapping technique
  • Gentle body heat
  • Time

Not by stiffness. Soft = better sleep + better mornings.

Which BlairCo curler is best for side sleepers?

The Unicorn Curler is ideal for side sleepers.

It wraps similarly to a French braid and keeps the bulk of the hair positioned in a way that feels more comfortable when lying on your side. That said — anyone can use it! It’s just especially loved by side sleepers.

What if I’m a beginner?

The Side-to-Side Curler is perfect for beginners.

It’s simple to wrap, easy to secure, and works well for any sleep position. If you're brand new to heatless curling, this is a great place to start.

Can I use product with the heatless curlers?

Yes! Adding a little product can help your curls last longer.We recommend:

  • A small amount of mousse
  • Light styling cream
  • Or a touch of product on your ends

You can also finish with your favorite hairspray or texture spray after removing the curler to lock everything in.

Will heatless curlers work on fine hair?

Absolutely.If you have fine hair:

  • Take slightly larger sections when wrapping.
  • Make sure hair is fully dry before wrapping.
  • Finish with a lightweight styling product once you remove the curler.

BlairCo curlers are designed to create long-lasting, voluminous curls without heat damage — even on fine or delicate hair.

Do the curlers come with scrunchies?

We intentionally do not include scrunchies.

At BlairCo, we care about sustainability and reducing unnecessary waste. Most people already have scrunchies or ponytail holders at home, and any of them will work perfectly with our curlers.

We’d rather not send you extra items that end up sitting unused in a drawer.

Are BlairCo heatless curlers comfortable to sleep in?

Yes — that’s the whole point.Our curlers are:

  • Soft
  • Flexible
  • Handmade with high-quality sherpa
  • Designed for real sleep

You shouldn’t have to sacrifice comfort to wake up with beautiful curls.
