If you're looking for a way to add volume and curls to your long hair without using heat, then sponge rollers are a great option. They are easy to use and can give you a variety of curl sizes depending on the size of the rollers you choose. In this article, we will walk you through how to curl long hair with sponge rollers step by step.
How to
The first step in using sponge rollers is to make sure that your hair is clean and completely dry. If your hair is wet, the curls won't hold as well. You can use a blow dryer to dry your hair if needed, but make sure it's completely dry before moving on to the next step.
Next, section your hair into small sections. The smaller the section, the tighter the curl will be. Take one section of hair and place the sponge roller at the end of the hair. Roll the hair up towards your scalp, making sure that the ends are tucked in. Secure the roller in place with the clip that comes with the roller.
Repeat this process for each section of hair until your entire head is covered in rollers. Make sure that the rollers are secure and not loose, or they won't hold the curl.
Leave the rollers in your hair for at least a few hours, or overnight if possible. The longer you leave them in, the tighter the curl will be. When you're ready to take them out, carefully unroll each roller and gently shake out your curls.
