As a Canadian woman 61 years old I often have remembered over the decades my mother putting rags in my hair as a very little girl and as delighted to find your video good for you thank you
I just did my 16 yr old daughters my nana use to pull rags in my hair sit in the sun n sleep with em I’m 45. But memories come fludding back
I rolled mine..all over my head with strips of sheets...All my brothers friends were using coke, orange juice and Tomato juice cans...
My Mum is 74 and her Mum used to put her hair up in rags. But Mum couldn't remember how it was done. I love the look.
I remember being very young and my mother did this. I hated it and as soon as I could dare I told her I did not want it any more. Then I hit grade 4 and asked her to please do it again. I am 68.
Me too!!! 😊
My Mother used to curl my hair that way. Glad you younger ones are doing it again. You are a beautiful young lady.
Yes!! It’s such a lovely look, and so affordable too!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I was the hair director for a Victorian musical and many of my cast members used your method as reference. They did rag curls every night for 14 days straight. Thank you again for being a piece of inspiration!
my mom taught me this when I was 7 and I do this everyday, except my rags are shorter, so I don’t wrap the bottom all the way back to the top. Instead, I tie a knot around the hair at the root, twist around like so and then twist each individual one rag curl into a sort of “cinnamon bun” and tie the ends together. I only use four, so it takes about less than ten minutes once you get used to it, and run my fingers and separate the curls through to create a natural curl look
Hope this helps!
At the root? Or do you mean at the end of the hair?
OMG. I just watched Viv Hair Therapy and she did your tutorial. I didn't think I could do this style with my texture. I love it you both. Thanks
That's where I just came from to watch this too :)
Me too!
Same!
That's how I got here, too. Ms. Viv looked gorgeous!
Same kinda, I was already subscribed to this chick haha
My grandmother used to curl my aunt's hair in the depression this way. I've been wanting to figure out how to do it. THANK YOU!!!!!
When I was little, I had very long hair, and for special occasions, my mother would rag curl my hair. It's very effective and you can sleep on them more comfortably than regular curlers.
Mine did too! I have a photo of me with my family at a studio taking a family portrait…the photo is in black and white :)
My mum used to do this with my hair. If you put half of the rag hanging down over your head, wrap the hair around it then wrap the covering part of the rag from top to bottom and tie at the bottom. Then it´s not bumpy to sleep on x
yep much easier method and you get more curls, also you can do it with paper towels!
That's exactly how my mum used to do my hair when I was a kid!
My gran used to do my hair like this when I was a child
My Mother did this to my hair as well every evening.
Sorry I don't understand what you mean
My mom was born in 1938 and her mother used to curl her hair with rag curls when she was 4-5 years old. She said they were very painful to sleep in, but they were the most beautiful ringlets I've ever seen in the pictures. My grandma was a perfectionist. I'm guessing she probably wrapped them up more so they were more on her head rather than hanging down vertically, so that probably made them even harder to sleep on.
This is the tutorial I have been needing for years ! I have always wanted to get natural looking ringlets with no heat and nothing ever worked for me ! Just now I tried it on dry hair for about 2 hours and even then it worked beautifully! Thank you!
Hi elli mam u r so cutie
This is the most straightforward, helpful tutorial I've seen on no-heat ringlets. Thank you and BTW your accent is amazing :)
I’d love to try it out on my own. My mom did my hair in rag curls for our susqecentenial , I wore my great aunt’s old party dress - it had a lot of fine lace and bead work. I looked just like her ( she passed away very young in the early 1900’s influenza epidemic. It was kind of eerie in a way when my great aunt Elenor told me how much I looked like Kathleen. ) the rag curls made it look historically accurate. It was an honor and a privilege to wear the dress and have my hair done that way .
Try cutting each strip in half length ways to make the knot at the top thinner. My grandmother used to do my hair in those and it was easier to sleep in. Love that you tried it though.
With this method, I suggest to oil your ends especially if they are damaged because your ends will look dry
Oh, good tip! I have very dry ends, and whenever I do rag curls I brush in a tiny bit of sweet almond oil at the ends.
@@horseenthusiast1250 before or after you let the curls out dry?
This video reminded me of my childhood in the 1950’s. My Mum or older sister would put mine and my younger sisters hair in rags on a Saturday night or when there was a special occasion. I notice others have commented that wrapping the opposite way to how you demonstrated gives a more comfortable nights sleep. Of course that also depended on how many rags were put in and how tight they were wrapped. Thank you for the trip down memory lane. Kindest regards.
My mom used to wrap my freshly shampooed hair like that when I was a child (1961-1964). She used an old bed sheet and tore it into long strips.
Wow, I just uploaded a tutorial for rag curls like these on Wednesday; it's like we read each other's minds! I did mine in two layers: one on top of my head and the other low enough not to get between my head and the pillow. It was comfortable to sleep in, but my curls ended up really poofy and not as tidy as yours. I also did a tutorial where I started wrapping the hair from the ends, and I got looser curls that were mainly curly at the bottom. :-)
It looks adorable you look like a doll my mom had dolls with curls like that
My mother used to rag my hair. I was born in 1971 and every event she would do this. I had waist length hair and every single school photo was me with curls lol
Ha ha my mum used this method in the 70s but did not use rags she used torn up strips of JCloth. Great video and your hair looks stunning.
Tip: when you finished forming your rags, pin them to your head and tie a scarf over your head with the rags under the head scarf. This makes sleeping much easier.
So pretty. I listen to a lot of 19th century audiobooks lol so this is perfect. I love your look it suits you. Now if only someone could come do this for me it would be so relaxing 😌 I’m too lazy !
Proving once again - RAG CURLS ARE THE BEST CURLS! Bravo.
Why would 1800 people given this a thumbs down? She is absolutely beautiful and this is a great method she shared - - - and her hair is gorgeous!!!
Some people just enjoy being negative. It’s their only form of joy. They have a screw loose somewhere…and some are just jealous (I’d bet those 1,800 and however many since these 3 more years have passed are jealous of her), and they attack everything that makes them feel inferior, (which is everything and everyone, and the first and main trait of a bully-extreme insecurity and jealousy, that’s what bullies are made of, a great thing to know when one wants to deflate a bully… if they call somebody stupid, it’s because they feel stupid; if they call someone ugly, it’s because they feel ugly; if they call someone weak, it’s because they feel weak; and so on), rather than be happy for others. They also have a screw loose, and can’t just enjoy themselves, so they try to drag everyone into their own mire, where they wallow.
Oooh!! Ok, this is very different from every other rag curl vid on YT that basically starts from the bottom and rolls straight up tot eh scalp. Very nice change of pace!! Can’t wait to try it! Thanks!!!
When i was 14-15 years old, i used to wear this look at school, which is ridiculous, now that i think of it :D i used to make these curls by twirling my hair around my fingers, strand by strand, and tthe spirals lasted for ever, because my hair is naturally wavy/curly. They looked exactly like they do there with the rag method.
I'm so glad this tutorial is still available!! I used your method a few Halloweens ago and it worked beautifully. Doing a similar hairstyle this year 😊 (Goth Victorian doll before, Little Red Riding Hood this year). Thank you!
I love this look
I've always loved this hairstyle. Ever since I saw a picture of a woman in my social studies text book. I've always wanted to try it but haven't had a reason to lol. They look very cute on you! Thank you for the tutorial :)
Straight to the point and you've got a pleasant voice to listen to.
I had no idea this was a thing until this moment. I actually learnt something new. Thanks
Thank you so much for the tutorial!!! I have always loved Victorian rag/sausage curls and wanted to try them. I followed this tutorial years ago with my mother, but they didn't turn out as well. I tried to attempt them again now and they are perfect and beautiful. I was able to use them for my regency outfit and it's amazing. Again, thank you!
This is definitely one of my favorite channels here on UA-cam. You are just so classy and informative👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
+Renata Morgenstern Thank you so much! :)
yeah I agree :)

Renata Morgenstern
2Renata Morgenstern the best way of organising a few 2nd
I tried this and it turned out wonderful 😄
Francesca ._snm can you give me some tips to?
I'm a 34 year old Canadian girl, and my mom used to do my hair like this in the 90s. :) I came back to this tutorial because I am being ms Frizzle for Halloween tomorrow! Haha.
Absolutely adorable! I always wondered how they created those perfect curls
ya
Teresa awesome

vry beautiful u and hair
This is great no-heat curling! (It's best if you do more than one layer ;) )
Hi sierr mam u r so cut
Thanks for the lesson! I go to American Civil War-era events and needed info on how to style my hair the right way. (1860's Victorian)
Thnku so mch. I am trying that first tym at my engangement..so thnks a lot for a helpful video.😍🥰
these curls seem similar to shirley temple curls. I am the hairstylist for a theatre production set in the 1800's and my director wanted these kinds of curls. Since we don't have the time to do no heat styles, I might do this with a 3/4" curling iron.

I am 68 and my grandmother would do this to me when I was a single digit child. I had very thick hair down to my knees. They were fun to do and virtually painless. Now I still have very thick hair but I have dreads past my butt now.
This is pretty much how I do my second day hair lol I have curly hair, so if I leave it down in its natural curl on washing day with some setting lotion in, when I get home I dampen it down, brush and put it in rag curls (I usually do 12, and with thicker rags). I also spiral wrap it. In the morning I look like I spent hours under the dryer or with a curling iron in my hands.
EmileeArsenic i have curly but hard to curl my hair so do you have any tips to help me
Hi thank you so much, my son is playing Pirelli in Sweeney Todd tonight and this was the only way that held a curl in his super long hair!
*Also straight to the point thanks for no long talk at the beginning😃
I've been curious about these rag curls since I watched a movie 4 years ago. That was SO interesting to learn
Im a male and my hair is perfect ringlets naturally! Its both a blessing and curse! Blessing because they look amazing and i get compliments on them! Curse because people don’t think they are mine and they criticize it or ask me how i do it and what i used
I saw this on anne with an e and i was so curious how they did this
Thanks for posting! I've always wondered how they curled their hair!!!
Love the Victorian music in the background. My hair is quite curly, but thin and responds well to straightening methods; hopefully this works for me. Thanks so much ♥️
My gram used to do these on my hair when I was a little girl.. she passed on from cancer in 2010.. so, tysm for posting this, I've always wanted to know how to do them myself...
it looks very beautiful
i wish i have a permanent victorian hair. like that
Thank u so much for trying this method! Please keep trying heatless curling methods and share them with us.
Imagine the girls in Victorian era. They had to do this so often or even everyday. But then again. There was no internet, not much going on I guess.
I absolutely love ringlet curls! I always had trouble with the ends and wrapping the rag back over the curl when I tried this method in the past.
I love your hairstyle big star
My grandmother did my hair like this as a kid all the time! Super uncomfortable to sleep in but I loved it!
Finally, something cool I can do with my long hair! 😁
Where has this technique been all my life?
I have the straightest hair in the world and nothing has ever worked so well.
This is game changing!
My Mum used to do this on my hair when I was a child. Good memories! Her method was a little different though. She would used smaller rags and roll them up rather than wrap my hair around the rag. It would come out more wavy than ringlet curled.
My mother used to do this to my hair, we called it "rolling on rags". My great-grandmother swore it made your hair grow faster (I'm not too sure about this, lol), and you can then wear the curls or brush it out and have very wavy hair. My mom would sit me down and have me hold the end of the rag on top of my head with one hand while she spiraled the rag down and back up, then tied the ends as you did. I think she usually did about six rolls. We never put any products on the hair, just freshly washed and still pretty damp. Rolled it in the evening, and slept on it, then took out the rags the next morning. I have been wanting to do this again but wasn't sure I could do it by myself. After having seen your video, I will have to try it! We always used cotton rags (usually torn from an old pillowcase or sheet), and I think maybe the plain cotton lets your hair dry faster than the stretchy t-shirt material.
My grandmother and aunt used to give me rag curls when I as a kid ❤️
My grandmother did my hair like this in the 70’s as I liked my hair this way while I watched Dark Shadows thought I was too young to watch it! LoL I was 5. The show was set in 1752. I have a historical retreat and a Bridgerton Ball in September going to try this . Great regency hairstyle!
I did it, can't wait to untie them tomorrow to see the result
I love it!!! Soooo gorgeous!!!!
awesome hair style
Thank you so much for this video! My grandmother used to do this to us when we were little. By the time I wanted to learn how to do it her hands hurt to much to do it. It's something I want to pass on if I ever have children. I just discovered your channel and I love it! Could you do a tutorial on Helen of Troy?
Hi clare mam u r so cut and attravtive
I want to do this!!
Splendid! It's very similar to the method I use, when making curls for my miniature dolls wigs the only difference is that I won't need to wind my hair round a knitting needle as I do for the dolls.
I grew up this way 40 years ago. Ringlets for days. Thank you and thank you for getting straight to the point I love it. Sometimes my mother would use wet paper bag strips
When I was a bridesmaid this is what the hairdresser did on my hair. It looked so nice but we parted the curls so they weren’t completely defined ringlets
Beautiful . What a pleasure to see
this is super cool! I love the historical aspect of this!!! thank you for the tutorial! xo, Sara
Wow so beautiful curles
I used o do these back in the 90's growing up, my mom would do that rag curl because my hair was so thick it would just be a smoother way to keep them from going wild. Lol I didn't know it was Victorian though, kool! 😁
i have try it and it really works so well. thanks for this.please give more overnight curls videos.
very nice 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😛
Al Mamun Rubel may I ask how long did you leave them in for?
I wonder if there is a second type of curl that you can doif you sort of pull up the curl closer to your head. My mom says it is a loosed curl. But you did a really beautiful job!!! Love your creativity!
beautiful
With this hair style you remind me of a porcelain doll. Thank you so much for the tutorial. I can’t wait to try!
Looks beautiful! Such a much better outcome than many vids I’ve seen with very inconsistent curls. And brushing it through is definitely a good finishing touch.
And you can also curl to the roots, do upper and lower sections, and go high on the upper ones, straight up if possible, or as close to that as possible, and go low on the lower ones, (it will all blend in the end), and possibly avoid having them at face height for sleeping.
I think it’s cute both ways, like it is here, and with a whole head of curls to the roots (which could be separated even further)…a bit more time consuming. I like that the ends are tucked in and curled. I really don’t care for when people leave their ends out. It looks weird to have curly hair with 1-3” of straight ends. I don’t get it at all when people do that. The curl should go from whatever starting point, then all the way to the ends.
Nicely done, and good tips for a successful and consistent outcome! Thanks! 😊
What lovely hair you have . The ragcurls look excellent .
I love ur hair after curling:D😊
Loepsie I am a huge fan of yours .. and the reason is little bit weird but sweet. Love from India❤️
My mum used to do these on me as a child all the time!
I love the way you show how to do your hair you get straight to the point well done have short hair different lengths can you please show me how to do my hair thankyou Lila
My mum used to put my hair in rags, when I was little!
It looks really hard
I tried it and I actually works yay
Gorgeous
My prom hair this year! ☺❤
Ty 💕 the good old days, RIP Mom
I get these naturally when my hair becomes greasy and it annoys me too much but this style looks so beautiful on you 💕
Love your voice. And the hair.
AH I am over the moon that you made this video! I always wondered how Mary Pickford got those perfect curls, thanks to you now I know! By the way, have you tried Lotta Body setting lotion? I loooove it for overnight styling like this. But your hair looks naturally way shinier and softer than mine, so probably you don't need it! :)
We use to do this to get cheer curls for cheerleading until everyone starting buying the curly extension ponytails because it cut out so much time.
OK, now i know how to do them properly.
I like this way my hair is straight I will try this
Amazing tips
omg! You must be Turkish actress Pelin Karahan's twin! so cut😆
Gorgeous.
I'm trying this myself today. I don't have a spray bottle though so I ran my hair under water, dried it as much as possible, and am going to leave it on my hair for about 12 hours. Then if it still feels wet I'll blowdry. Fingers crossed it works.
It really worked))
