Photographed by Mark Iantosca. It’s official, friends: The tundra is no longer, and summer is nigh, which means if you’re anything like us, you’re already planning weekend trips to the beach and dreaming of frolicking in the sunshine. One thing we don't have time for in our jam-packed summer-fun schedules? Messing around with heat styling.



Going heat-free for the summer is an easy way to save time on your styling routine and protect hair from further harm — you'll be getting plenty of rays from all that aforementioned sun-frolicking anyway. Not to mention, this totally gives you a chance to amp up your creative hair game; there are so many inventive ways to curl and wave your hair that it's slightly overwhelming trying to sort through them all.



To help you make the most out of a heat-styling-free summer, we went ahead and did the hard work for you. Here, you'll find the four best how-tos currently on YouTube, starring four of our favorite tutorial stars: Carly Cristman, Kayley Melissa, Sarah Nagel, and K.L Cao. Read on to find out how you can achieve luscious curls sans the heat tools, and then tell us: Do you have an awesome heatless-curls method?
