In this video I tried the viral overnight sock curls for the very first time—because it was 10:11pm, I’d just got home, and I had plans the next day (aka: I needed something quick that meant I wouldn’t have to think about my hair in the morning). My hair was freshly washed and air dried, but it still weirdly felt damp after like 12 hours, and I’d had it up in a ponytail. I followed a TikTok tutorial (middle part and all—monkey see monkey do), grabbed 2… well, 3 socks in my case, and basically made my own “roller” situation because I don’t even own proper rollers. It genuinely is super easy and beginner-friendly, and once you get the hang of it, it’s a 5-minute before-bed method. But I’ll be honest: it wasn’t the comfiest to sleep in, and the results were a bit… anticlimactic at first. The ends looked really nice and the overall vibe worked with my makeup and outfit, but the root area was not my friend—there wasn’t the volume I wanted, and the curl/definition didn’t start high enough. For me, unicorn curls, curling rods, or even my scrunchie blowout give better volume, but if you want quick, heatless, semi-decent curls in basically 10 minutes total, sock curls are still a solid option.
