About This Article
To get natural looking curls, start by wetting your hair and applying some mousse or gel, which will help your curls last longer. Then, separate your hair into sections and tightly braid it. The more braids you make, the smaller your curls will be. When you're finished braiding your hair, let it dry completely overnight, or blowdry your hair to speed up the process. Once your hair is fully dry, take out the braids and style your curls. For more tips from our beauty reviewer, including how air drying your hair can bring out your natural curls, read on!
