Pillow Soft Curls on Natural Hair: 2 Techniques to Get Them
Pillow soft curls on natural hair are absolutely gorgeous. They can take very little effort to do on hair that’s been straightened but look quite effortful.


In this short article, I’ll share with you 2 techniques for doing soft bouncy curls using 2 different tools – both are fine hair friendly. The techniques yield slightly different results and I do not always “lay” my edges. That’s optional based on the look you are going for. It’s cool to keep it “natural.”

Kitsch Satin Heatless Curling Set
One way to achieve curls that look like soft waves is to use a heatless curling set. It consists of one jumbo-sized satin-covered rod that’s super flexible. Plus, a clip to hold it in place and 2 satin scrunchies.

Kitsch The Satin Pillow Rollers
Another way to achieve those pillow soft curls is to use satin rollers that snap closed. There’s a slight learning curve with these but once you snap them correctly, they stay put.

Where to Buy These Satin Hair Accessories
Kitsch is one of my favorite hair care accessory brands. They offer stylish and functional hairstyling tools at an affordable price. I especially like that they make tools that don’t just work for those with straight hair. The tools below are amazing for creating pillow soft curls for natural hair. Disregard the Amazon reviews! You have to know how to use them and I just showed you how 🙂
The hair curlers I used in the videos linked above may not be available in the designs you see in the videos, but many designs are available. You’ll find both of these hair tools on Amazon:
