'I tried curling my hair with a pool float and the results shocked me'

Send Push

There are so many curling products on the market, that it can be tough to know where to start.

And if you have longer hair, the problem is exacerbated, because curls can easily drop out, even with a ridiculous amount of hairspray.

With the rise in popularity of heatless curlers, thanks to the fact that when you sleep in them they can give a flawless bounce, people are realising that you don't have to spend upwards of an hour staring at yourself in the mirror while you curl your hair with heated tongs - nor do you have to go to the salon and pay for the look.

But Jonathan Monroe has taken this trend to the extreme by using a pool noodle to curl his luscious locks on TikTok - and the results are jaw-dropping.

First, he cut up the large pool noodle into "smaller noodles" and then cut up a mesh t-shirt that he never wears to keep the hair in place so it would have a chance to curl his tresses.

He rolled his hair in "four sections" which he said was "a lot easier to apply than standard rollers" as he could fit "tonnes of hair onto each roller".

He then took them out, and said he was "very shocked at how big and defined each section was". His hair was big and bouncy, and looked like he'd been sitting in a salon chair for hours.

"I've paid good money for styling tools that can pull off this type of curl, who knew a pool noodle from Dollar Tree could create such stunning hair?", he asked.

In the comments, someone joked: "My husband would roast me if I tried this, but the result is so pretty". Another said: "My mom told me they used empty beer cans in the 70s or 80s!"

Others were left wondering how long he left them in for, pointing out that he "didn't sleep in them" - so they thought "a couple of hours" would be best.
