If that sounds familiar, then you’re the ideal candidate for the latest hair hack that’s gone viral on TikTok: the heatless blowout.

Here, it’s all about using everyday objects instead of the traditional hairdryer to achieve a perfect, slightly wavy blowout style.

Videos on the subject have been landing thick and fast for several weeks on the social network, reflecting a definite craze for this natural trick that doesn’t damage hair – and that’s no doubt the whole point – and with, it has to be said, relative success.

The specialist in the matter is none other than My Pawfect Family, a master in the art of styling her hair with unusual objects.

Her main video on the no-heat blowout has been viewed more than 700,000 times, and has scored nearly 100,000 likes.

The young woman explains how, with the help of a basic T-shirt that she rolls into a donut shape, it is possible to achieve a blowout style without using heat.

To do this, you need a fine-toothed comb, hairpins, a spray bottle filled with water (if your hair is not already wet) and a lot of patience.

The trick involves separating hair into two sections, positioning the donut-shaped T-shirt on your head, and then wrapping strands of hair one by one around the donut – combing them carefully as you go – starting from the top of the head.

When all the hair is wrapped around the T-shirt, all you have to do is pin it in place and go to bed.

After a good night’s sleep, just take it all down to admire a slightly wavy blowout like you’ve always dreamed of – and we’re hardly exaggerating.

The craze is such that the hashtag #heatlessblowout has so far gained 7.7 million views on TikTok, although it encompasses other tips… like using socks to create perfect curls. More on that another time.
