Step 1 — Place the DreamWave Ribbon

Start with dry or slightly damp hair — not soaking wet.

Part your hair down the middle so both sides are even.

Place the DreamWave Ribbon on top of your head like a headband, with the clip at the crown.

Adjust it so it feels snug but comfortable, with both ends hanging evenly on each side.

Lightly damp hair helps the curls set better.
If your hair is smooth or frizz-prone, apply a small amount of leave-in or serum for extra grip.

Key rule: comfort and balance.

If the ribbon feels stable and comfortable now, it will stay in place overnight.

Step 2 — Wrap your hair around the ribbon

Take the left side of your hair and wrap it around the ribbon, away from your face, mirroring the right side.

Use the same section size as step 2 for balanced curls.
Keep the tension equal and comfortable.
Once fully wrapped, secure the ends with a scrunchie to prevent slipping overnight.

Key rule: symmetry.

Match the right side exactly — uneven wrapping leads to uneven curls.

Step 3 — Continue wrapping until all hair is secured

Keep wrapping your hair evenly around the ribbon until the full length is secured.

Make sure the hair lies flat against the ribbon, not twisted.
If you have long or thick hair, guide the ends neatly so they don’t stick out.
Secure the bottom with a scrunchie to lock everything in place.

Don’t rush this step.

Loose ends = frizz and uneven curls. Clean wrapping = smoother, longer-lasting results.

Step 4 — Secure the ribbon around your head

Bring both wrapped sides to the front of your head and secure the ribbon with a bow or knot on your forehead.

Keep it snug but comfortable so it stays in place overnight.
You can also tie it at the back, but this may cause irritation while sleeping.
Check that both sides are evenly wrapped and feel secure.

Key rule: comfort over tightness.

If it’s uncomfortable now, it won’t get better overnight.

Step 5 — Sleep and let the curls set

Go to sleep with the ribbon securely in place and let the curls set naturally overnight.

Wear a satin bonnet to reduce friction, keep everything in place, and slow down moisture loss so your hair stays hydrated while setting.
Sleep on a satin pillowcase to minimise friction, prevent frizz, and protect both your curls and your skin.
Avoid adjusting the ribbon during the night.

Key rule: protect and secure.

Less friction, better hydration, better results.

Step 6 — Unwrap and enjoy your curls

In the morning, gently remove the scrunchies and unwrap your hair from the ribbon. Do not pull — let the curls fall naturally.

Thanks to the satin bonnet, your hair stayed protected all night: less friction, better moisture retention, and everything stayed in place. This is why curls look smoother, shinier, and more defined instead of dry or frizzy.
No heat means no stiffness or damage — curls feel soft and natural, not styled.
Use your fingers to separate lightly if needed. No brushing.

Why this works (and why customers love it):

Sleeping comfortably while styling is the biggest win. You wake up ready, with healthier-looking curls, without effort or heat damage.

Key rule: gentle finish.

Let the routine do the work — don’t fight the curls.
